During the 2020 presidential campaign, Joe Biden decried U.S. border policies enacted by the Trump administration as racist. But Biden has not only not rolled some of them back — in some cases, he’s doubled down.
Today, we try to figure out what changed. Read the full transcript here.
Host: Gustavo Arellano
Guests: L.A. Times immigration reporters Hamed Aleaziz and Andrea Castillo

Hello from the Bay Area!
This week, it’s just Jay speaking with Malcolm Harris, the author of the recently published Palo Alto: A History of California, Capitalism, and the World. We talk about [5:40] why Malcolm wrote a 600-plus-page epic instead of a shorter, more personal book; [27:25] Palo Alto’s origin story, including Leland Stanford and immigrant labor on the railroads; and [43:20] what mainstream histories get wrong about the New Left and Silicon Valley’s development. (Heads-up: There is a brief discussion of suicide between 11:30 and 14:10.)
In this episode, we ask:
Why does Palo Alto give off such a weird vibe, and how does Stanford University's approach to real estate contribute?
What did Jay and his daughter learn about the exploitation of Chinese rail workers at the California State Railroad Museum?
Is Malcolm worried that AI could take his job?
For more, read:

Perhaps the only surprising thing about the former president’s arraignment was that it was not followed by big demonstrations—but he did take to the airwaves to seethe. A global rice crisis is brewing; the world’s most important crop is fuelling both climate change and diabetes. And what connects leased pandas in America and Chinese nationalists’ anger.

Valentin Vasilyev has always been interested in the open source world. His Github account was created way back in 2008 when they started. He always dreamt about contributing to Ruby on Rails, since he developed with it in the past. Outside of tech, he loves cycling - road and mountain, and enjoys good coffee and online shooting games. He's married with 2 kids, and loves living in the midwest, specifically Chicago.
Post getting his green card, Valentin wanted to experiment with the open source library he created, which its worth noting, was starred 6000 times. He decided to keep his library, but spin off a pro version which included a backend. Then he followed up with some landing pages, and payment mechanisms. And then began his focus on accuracy.
