    Attorney Nathan Sweet and Brendan McIntyre discuss recent events, including the sudden death of Senator Lindsey Graham, the need for respectful public discourse, and the Catholic call to honor human dignity even amid political disagreement.

    They explore the nuances of just war theory and international law in the context of tensions with Iran, weighing prudence, accountability, and the limits of military action.

    On a lighter note they touch on the FIFA World Cup semifinal rivalry and end with a reminder to love your neighbor, resist online vitriol, and lead with charity in public life.
