Summary

(Note: This episode is from Tonight with Dr. Steve's special Thursday livestream.)

A historic chapter begins in the Catholic Church as Cardinal Robert F. Prevost, a Chicago-born American, becomes Pope Leo XIV, marking the first time in history that the papacy has crossed the Atlantic. Beyond the ceremonial awe and international celebration, deep tensions now face the new pontiff: modernist leadership versus a growing traditionalist laity. We’ll see the symbolic, political, and theological significance of Pope Leo XIV’s election, the Vatican’s financial strategies, and the global rise of religious re-traditionalization.

In the second part of this episode, we dive deep into Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth’s “Less Generals, More GIs” policy and what it means for the future of U.S. military readiness. With my guest, Lt. Col. (Ret.) R. Davis Younts, we explore the bloated command structure, the historical shift in officer-to-troop ratios, and whether these reforms go far enough to restore efficiency, morale, and operational strength in our armed forces.

0:59.0	Just days after burying, commemorating the death and passing of Pope Francis, the papacy is reborn before the world.
1:09.4	Out of the tomb, the papacy is resurrected anew as a symbol of the
1:14.3	transfiguration of the whole of life in the transformative death and resurrection of Christ.
1:20.0	And three votes in on the fourth ballot, the 133 cardinal elect were gathered in the Vatican Sistine Chapel to elect our new
1:30.8	Pope, the 267th Pope, who appeared at the central windows who saw St. Peter's Basilica.
1:38.1	It is the American Cardinal Robert F. Provost. He is now officially Pope Leo the 14th. He is the first ever American Pope,

1:55.2	times as we speak. President Trump weighed in, of course. He tweeted out, quote, congratulations to Cardinal Robert
2:01.8	Francis Prevost, who was just named Pope. It is such an honor to realize that he is the first

2:19.7	Now, it's very interesting the fact that he is from the United States.
2:24.8	That does suggest that we, let's just say the conclave was concerned about, shall we say, rather practical matters, not particularly
2:37.5	theological. There is a theological element here that we're going to get to in a moment,
2:41.7	but I do think there was some fiscal issues that the conclave seems to want to address.
2:49.1	The election of an American just so happens to
