The 70th United States Secretary of State, Michael Pompeo, visited The Catholic University of America’s campus this week to make a speech regarding the significance of religious freedom.
Former Secretary Pompeo’s political career thus far includes being a United States House Representative from Kansas, CIA director, and, most recently, 4th in the line of succession as Secretary of State in former President Donald Trump’s cabinet. He graduated from the U.S. Military Academy in West Point, NY.
The event took place at Catholic University’s Heritage Hall and was hosted by the College Republicans. Only 50 people were allowed for in-person attendance due to COVID-19 restrictions. Tickets sold out online within minutes.

(RNS) Over the past decade in Christian theological circles, there’s been an explosion of concern for nonhuman animals. Not many people keep up with theological trends, so no shame if you’ve missed this one.
But the fact is, while much of theology is by its very nature rather abstract, this one is relatable: Large majorities of us have animal companions, for instance. We all eat, and many of us think, talk and even obsess over what we eat more than we do over, say, God. And how we treat animals has a lot to do with what we put in our bodies and not just to eat.
