Summary

This week, 133 cardinals from around the world will gather at the Sistine Chapel to vote for the next pope. This event, known as the Conclave (a term popularized by the Oscar-winning movie of the same name), is steeped in tradition and secrecy. Only the voting cardinals know what takes place inside the chapel. Mary FioRito, a senior fellow at the Catholic Association, explains the process of selecting a new pope and what the Catholic Church seeks in this selection. President Trump has yet to close trade deals with other countries, but the administration reports that negotiations are underway. Additionally, after pulling federal funding from Harvard last month, the Trump administration has also halted any new federal grants to the university until White House demands are met. White House Senior Policy Strategist May Mailman joins the podcast to discuss the Trump administration's stance on federal funding for universities and what upcoming administration travels abroad could mean for trade talks. Plus, commentary from FOX News Contributor Tom Shillue. Photo Credit: AP Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
