When I learned Joe Biden had dropped out of the race, my mind immediately shot back to Feb. 11, 2013, when another Catholic leader, Pope Benedict XVI shocked the world by announcing that he would voluntarily resign his post.

President Joe Biden dropped out of the 2024 race for the White House on Sunday, ending his bid for reelection.

In his first speech since the attempted assassination of Donald Trump, the former president seemed humbled and sought to bring the country together. But can this person unite America?

Reports are already surfacing of drones launched into Russia that are relying on artificial, not human, intelligence in decisions to evade defensive countermeasures, pick targets and finally conclude a strike.

At one time, the presence of Catholics on both major-party tickets would have been cause for celebration. But now Mr. Vance and Mr. Biden reflect the political divisions among U.S. Catholics.

We need more than cooler rhetoric. We need a politics for the common good.
