Tune in here to this  Monday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! 

Brett kicks off the program by talking about President Trump’s approach to Iran and the broader political moment unfolding in the United States. He describes what he sees as a rare period in American politics where a second-term president—separated from his first term by another administration—is operating with fewer political restraints and a greater willingness to act decisively on the world stage. Brett argues that while some political factions remain focused on media controversies and internet personalities, the administration is concentrating on larger geopolitical stakes, particularly the confrontation with Iran.

We’re joined by Paul Kengor from The American Spectator to talk about his new book The American Pontiff and the historic election of Pope Leo XIV following the death of Pope Francis. Kengor discusses the shock inside and outside the Catholic world when an American cardinal emerged from the conclave after just four ballots, defying long-standing expectations that the papacy would never go to an American.
