To kick off the show, we have a great discussion with Alexandra Huneeus, a UW Law Professor as well as an expert in International Law and Human Rights to shed light on the U.S. intervention in Venezuela. The segment highlights the complexity of international legal systems, distinct from domestic law, and the controversial framing of Venezuela's situation around drug trafficking. In the second part, Miguel Aranda, a candidate for Wisconsin's first congressional district, shares his motivations for running, emphasizing Latino representation and the critical issues facing his community. Aranda passionately critiques political narratives around Latino voters and ICE's actions in Minnesota.
