Sanctuary or Stage?

Data & Dissonance | Tuesday 1/20/26

What happens when activism crosses a line?

In tonight’s episode of Data & Dissonance, the panel breaks down a confrontation that spilled into a Minneapolis church during an active service — and the quiet media response that followed. When sacred spaces become political stages, and disruption gets rebranded as courage, are any standards still applied evenly?

Artie is joined by Brian, Rachel, Daniel, and Never-Trumper Skylar to examine where protest ends and pressure begins, why intent doesn’t erase impact, and what selective silence from the media signals to the public. This isn’t a debate about immigration policy — it’s a conversation about boundaries, credibility, and what happens when principles become conditional.
