Brooks and Capehart on Pope Leo XIV's potential impact on U.S. culture and politics
Correction: A graphic in the Brooks and Capehart discussion misattributed a quote to Justice Sonia Sotomayor. We regret the error.
New York Times columnist David Brooks and Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart join Geoff Bennett to discuss the week in politics, including the election of the first American pope and his potential impact on U.S. culture and politics, former President Biden's media tour and Supreme Court justices defending an independent judiciary.
