Bishop James Massa, Chairman of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops' Committee on Doctrine, clarifies Catholic just war theory amid President Trump and Vice President JD Vance's criticisms of Pope Leo's stance on peace during the Iran War. Mark Irons sits down with Pope Leo XIV's older brother John Prevost at his parish in the Chicago suburbs, alongside Augustinian priest Fr. Ray Flores, to discuss the Holy Father's upbringing in Illinois and to reflect on nearly one year of his brother’s pontificate. EWTN News' Deputy Vatican Editor Hannah Brockhaus speaks one-on-one with Fr. Joseph Farrell, the prior general of the Order of St. Augustine and longtime friend of the pontiff, to hear how the Augustinian formation has shaped the pontificate of Pope Leo XIV.
