It's been a WILD 10 days! We review the attempted assassination of Donald Trump, the Republican National Convention, Biden's decision not to run, and the enthusiastic embrace of Kamala Harris as the Democratic presumptive nominee for President. We also talk about the anticipated misogynoir that will come the Vice President's way, Project 2025, and how spiritual communities and clergy can respond.
