Ask Me Anything Answered: From Minneapolis to the Middle East, Power, War, and the Stories Left in the Dark

Listener questions drive this candid episode of Dispatches with Hollie McKay, spanning immigration raids in Minneapolis, the roots of Minnesota’s Somali community, NATO’s fractures, and the geopolitical stakes of Greenland and Iran. Hollie explains why closing the Strait of Hormuz could shock the global economy, whether Iran’s unrest could reshape the Middle East, and who benefits when conflicts like Congo stay out of the headlines. A conversation about power, accountability, and the human cost of decisions made far from public view — plus a personal detour into ballet, discipline, and storytelling under fire.Support the showVisit holliesmckay.substack.com
