  • A podcast that makes Latinas feel seen

    The latest episode of a former Trump official who will be voting for Holocaust Harris is a perfect example of the absolute abysmal state of Latinx media. No critical thinking, just Trump bad, Harris good. Harris, who has vowed to continue to build Trump’s border wall, Harris of the Biden-Harris administration who continues to imprison immigrants, Harris who has abandoned DACA and Dreamers to appeal to the right.
