I saw 'Conclave' in theaters 5 times. Here's why Gen Z was so obsessed with it — and the real thing. Gen Zers have made this into the TikTok papal conclave, partially inspired by the film.

The future of America's biggest safety net is in the hands of a career bureaucrat and a hard-charging finance titan Acting commissioner Leland Dudek helms the nearly 60,000-person federal agency. Frank Bisignano, a former JPMorgan Chase and Citigroup executive, waits in the wings.
