And, you should go listen to the song of the day.

Happening off-Campus: An Argentine judge has asked the United States to extradite former Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, who was captured by the US military last month and now faces federal narco-terrorism charges in New York. The Argentine case accuses Maduro of crimes against humanity, including torture and enforced disappearances during a crackdown on opponents. The case relies on universal jurisdiction, allowing Argentina to prosecute grave international crimes committed abroad. Though the US is unlikely to grant the request as Maduro awaits trial in Brooklyn, advocates say it marks a significant step toward justice for Venezuelan victims. (AP)

Happening near Campus: Gov. Kathy Hochul has chosen former New York City Council Speaker Adrienne Adams as her running mate, adding regional and demographic balance to her reelection bid. Adams, a moderate with deep ties in Southeast Queens, becomes part of the first all-female major-party ticket for governor and lieutenant governor in New York. Supporters say Adams could help strengthen Hochul’s base among Black voters, though some Brooklyn Democrats criticized the decision as insufficiently consultative. (Gothamist)
