Heidi, Daniel and David look at the effects the recent attacks on USAID have had on charities and nongovernmental organizations — especially in the Catholic world. Then they look at the "armchair theology of JD Vance," recent comments made by the vice president about Catholic social and moral issues. Finally, Heidi interviews Charlene Howard, the new executive director of Pax Christi USA. Their discussion includes issues of war and peace in the world.
