On "EWTN News Nightly" tonight: Weekend vandalism struck 3 houses of worship in Bethesda, Maryland near Washington DC. St. Jane Frances de Chantal Catholic Church suffered the worst damage from a fire believed to be arson in its sanctuary. Pastor at St. Jane Frances de Chantal, Fr. Samuel Giese, joins to tell us what happened over the weekend and his reaction when he found out. Meanwhile, the USCCB’s Committee on Pro-Life Activities called it “deeply disturbing and tragic” that President Joe Biden is choosing “to promote and facilitate abortion in our country.” And lawmakers are back on Capitol Hill after the holiday break. However, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and Senator Richard Blumenthal have COVID, and Senator Leahy is out recovering from hip surgery. President Biden is looking into whether he has the authority to declare a public health emergency concerning abortion. Policy Director for the American Principles Project, Jon Schweppe, joins to tell us his thoughts on this so-called public health emergency. Finally this evening, Cardinal Christoph Schonborn joins Church leaders from Europe and around the world in accusing some German Catholics of using the Synodal Path to push a political agenda. EWTN Vatican Bureau Chief, Andreas Thonhauser, joins us from Austria to share what the cardinal said and why his criticisms could be important for the Church in Germany.
