85 Seconds to Midnight: ICE Violence, Minnesota Chaos & America’s Breaking Point
from One-Minute Recess · host One-Minute Recess
In this anniversary episode, we break down the attack on Rep. Ilhan Omar, ICE violence in Minnesota, the dangerous hypocrisy around gun rights, and why even Republican officials are starting to distance themselves — while others stay silent. We also talk about the Doomsday Clock moving to just 85 seconds to midnight, what that actually means, and why it feels like every crisis is happening all at once.
