Midday on the Law: The latest on Trump's hush money trial

In the introduction to her fascinating new book, Washington Post sports columnist Sally Jenkins writes, “I've never known a winner, not one, who wasn't irritated by the lame idea that they were God-kissed with fortunate gifts.”

The Right Call: What Sports Teach Us About Work and Lifeis a rumination on why athletic icons have risen to the top of their respective sports, and what lessons can be learned that can benefit the rest of us in our respective personal and professional pursuits.

Jenkins comes to see hard work and strategic thinking, rather than latent talent, as the crucial quality to an athlete's success.

During her long career as a sports columnist and feature writer, Jenkins covered 10 Olympic games, and countless games in other sports in between. As she covered these events, Jenkins has had a front row seat to observe some of the world’s most elite athletes and coaches.

Sam Cogen promised change if elected to Baltimore city's sheriff office. Half a year into his term, what has changed, and what has not?

The sheriff's office is responsible for protecting courthouses, evictions and enforcing protective orders. Cogen has sought to expand his agency's responsibilities, and said he wants to see his office be a "changing agent" in the housing and eviction process.

So, how does the Baltimore city sheriff’s office fit into the fabric of Baltimore’s public safety efforts?

Sheriff Sam Cogen joins Midday's Tom Hall to discuss his term, so far, and his goals for the future of his agency.

“Peace is the duty of our time,” Phillip Berrigan told a class of college students in 1965. 60 years later, it remains so.

Berrigan was an iconic peace activist, a soldier, a priest, a scholar, and a protester who came to international prominence as part of the Catonsville 9, a group that burned draft cards in 1968, during the Vietnam war.

In 1973, Berrigan, with his wife, Elizabeth McAlister, founded Jonah House in Baltimore, a Catholic Worker House inspired by the gospel nonviolence work of Dorothy Day.

Today on Midday, a conversation about the work of Philip Berrigan, whose writing has been assembled in a new collection, A Ministry of Risk.

Brad Wolf edited the work. He is a lawyer, former prosecutor, professor, and community college dean. He is cofounder of Peace Action Network of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, an affiliate of Peace Action and a partner of World BEYOND War. Brad's writings have been published in The Progressive, Common Dreams, Counterpunch, Antiwar.com, Consortium News, and Dappled Things.

We also speak with Brendan Walsh and Willa Bickham, the founders of a Catholic Worker House in Southwest Baltimore called Viva House.

On July 4, the 2024 Peace Walk is set to take place in Washington, D.C.
