The Things We CAN Control (Hour 1)


Listen Later

Happy days, y'all. It's a Monday and we're diving right into it all. Despair can leave us frozen. So let's focus on what we CAN control, eh?

This past week, many local Wisconsin communities' law enforcement agencies declared they would not participate in deportation efforts from the federal government. In response, Republicans in Wisconsin's legislature announced they will introduce a bill to force such cooperation. Dom and Jess strongly prefer that our local law enforcement instead focus on y'know, local law enforcement issues. So what can we do? We can call our elected officials and tell them what their constituents actually want.

Today is also International Holocaust Remembrance Day. This day marks the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, now 80 years ago. In a world where the man who controls the most resources and a powerful communciation platform performs a Nazi salute multiple times at a Presidential inauguration, we must bear witness and remember. When that same man then declares that Germany should 'move beyond' their guilt over the atrocities of the Holocaust, stand up and resist. Always. It's within your control.
