The top stories this afternoon from KERA News: The already tense campaign battle between John Wiley Price and Dwaine Caraway got downright ugly Monday.

Meanwhile, the big political story from last week, the pope’s remarks about Donald Trump’s immigration policies, made waves in churches across the country. TCU's chaplain Father James Wilcox says the pontiff’s comments are resonating on campus.
