Soberanía 63: Lowbrow Landa
Take that man’s phone away! In the latest episode of Soberanía, a triggered Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau goes full rage-doxx against a MORENA party official, President Sheinbaum attends the G7 in Calgary, Kurt and José Luis reflect on the Iran-Israel conflict, and an update on opposition to the ICE raids in the context of the “No Kings” protests . The show concludes with a reflection on the need for Mexico to view its migrant communities in their own situation and context, avoiding two-dimensional stereotypes, and in a new segment, the “People’s Mailbag,” illustrate this with two precise reflections on the migrant issue.

Our Water, In Whose Hands?
