Flashpoint

Live radio host David Hartley examines the troubled and increasingly volatile state of Minneapolis, and the shocking death of intensive-care nurse Alex Pretti during a federal immigration enforcement action. Could this moment become a flashpoint in an already fractured United States? As citizens, do we hold back—or do we step forward in open public protest? Is peace still possible in such turbulent times through self-reflection, historical awareness, and a renewed effort toward kindness and tolerance? Also looked at is the violence in people who kill wolves and how such things reflect themselves in the current state of extremism in the USA . Join us for a late-night conversation filled with thoughtful ideas, quiet humor, and carefully chosen music—seeking clarity, humanity, and perspective in a time of deep unrest.
