Violence Without Action

A mass shooting in Australia on the first night of Hanukkah leaves 15 people dead and sparks urgent calls for accountability and reform. At the same time, another mass shooting in the United States pushes this year’s total to 380—met, once again, with political paralysis and empty platitudes. As Australian leaders signal possible legislative action, American officials offer thoughts and prayers instead of solutions. Meanwhile, ICE escalates aggressive enforcement efforts, with consequences that now hit the halls of power itself when a U.S. congresswoman’s son is caught in the fallout. In this episode, we connect the dots between global political violence, failed gun policy, and unchecked state power—and why these crises are not isolated, but deeply intertwined. Hosted on Acast.
