42 minutes

San Diego State and the city of San Diego are millions of dollars apart on the price for the Mission Valley stadium. Can they strike a deal? For the first time in his political career, embattled Rep. Duncan Hunter failed to win the endorsement of the San Diego County Republican Party, a sign of a turbulent campaign to come. After a KPBS story about her detention, a 9-year-old asylum-seeker, who was being held in Border Patrol custody for more than 10 days, has been released. Plus, people living outside the city of San Diego don’t seem to have the same problem with broken trash bins. We’ll explain why. Also, the executive director of San Diego 350, a group of climate activists, says they aren’t backing away from a dispute with Rep. Scott Peters over the Green New Deal. And, a preview of the San Diego Italian Film Festival.
