We’re back for another season of @quepasahsis.bsky.social and we kick it off with the brilliant Dra. Rebecca Perdomo. Listen and let me know what you think!

Too late!!!

NEW: We're urging an appeals court to re-consider a lawsuit challenging the Trump administration's attempt to deploy National Guard troops in Portland, Oregon.

The military should not be policing civilians.

University of California would need $5B if it lost federal funding, leader says The public university system’s president warned of a “distinct possibility” that the Trump administration would take further action against it.
