National Catholic Reporter senior correspondent Heidi Schlumpf, columnist Daniel Horan and David Dault kick off Season 16 of "The Francis Effect."
First, the trio discusses the new Trump administration; they consider how Catholics can prepare themselves for the violence against the vulnerable being promised by the incoming administration. Then they look at Cardinal Robert McElroy's appointment as Washington's next archbishop, and what that could mean for Catholic relations with the new administration.
Later, Heidi interviews Dylan Corbett, founder and executive director of the Hope Border Institute in El Paso, Texas.
