A lot of folks are talking about the importance of compromise, but who are we compromising for?
65% of Americans support Medicare for All.
This compromise isn’t for us, it’s for big pharma/insurance because when our reps are taking their donations, that’s who they answer to.

Scoop: Democratic think tank @SearchlightInst is pushing the party to embrace a new idea: Free primary care for all Americans. The group wants Dems to rethink their approach to health care and break out of the M4A vs ACA rut. They’re unimpressed with CAP’s proposal and warn that Dems need to have a vision beyond opposing Trump and restoring expired subsidies. “This is still our best issue, but we have not been on offense in a way that’s capturing people’s imaginations and getting them excited,” says @AJentleson. “We don’t need to be on defense or just advocating for incremental reforms.” Story w/ @BerkeleyJr: nbcnews.com/politics/polit…

Not heckling. It’s fact checking.

A man disrupted LA Mayor Karen Bass at the groundbreaking of a new East Hollywood interim housing project, questioning the success of her Inside Safe homelessness program and why she allegedly made edits to the Palisades Fire after-action report.

“The Gaza Ministry of Health is just a front for Hamas ... a terrorist organization … We can’t take anything coming out of Hamas, including the so-called ‘Ministry of Health,’ at face value.” — NSC’s John Kirby on Biden saying he has “no confidence” in Palestinian death count

The fuck is it with Germany? Why is it just consistently uniquely horrible among nations at every point in history?
Jacobin@jacobin
Germany has started stripping people of their citizenship based on pro-Palestine social media posts. A moral panic about minorities’ sympathies for Hamas is being used to chill free speech and establish a second-class citizenship: jacobin.com/2026/05/german…

This is what local accountability looks like:
In Festus, Missouri, a town of about 14,000 people, the city council quietly approved a $6 billion Ai data center to be built on 360 acres just north of Highway 67.
Residents say they were never properly heard. Meetings were held in private. Documents were released too late. A week after the approval, the town held a regular election. Voter turnout jumped 129 percent.
Every single council member who had voted yes lost in a landslide. A 70-year-old first-time candidate beat an 8-year incumbent by 40 percentage points.
Now a recall petition is circulating to remove the mayor as well. The lawsuit against the city is already filed.
Has your local government ever been held accountable like this? 🔥

we all know israel did this, the reporting is reliable- backed by decades of palestinian testimony. the point isn’t to successfully change minds. it’s to punish dissent.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen so many people get so violently angry about something without putting forth a single substantive argument for their position. To Zionists it doesn’t matter, the very *idea* of accusing Israel of something is inherently wrong, insensitive, antisemtic.

I led HUNDREDS of Jews in protest outside the @nytimes HQ today to shame them for REPEATEDLY spreading blood libels against the Jewish people and ONLY Jewish state. Enough is enough!

Trump pardoned narco-trafficker Juan Orlando Hernandez only to make him the linchpin of a covert campaign to neutralize the Latin American left through death squads and media smear campaigns
Israel is operating as the middle man
As the scandal unfolds, US legacy media is AWOL
The Grayzone@TheGrayzoneNews
Hondurasgate: the mega-scandal US media won't cover Shocking leaks have exposed US meddling in Latin America, primarily through the former Honduran president and convicted drug trafficker Juan Orlando Hernandez, who was brazenly pardoned by Donald Trump. The leaks help us understand why Trump freed Hernandez, as he was the linchpin for a covert media operation designed to smear left-wing governments in Colombia, Brazil and Mexico. Leaked audio also reveals a central Israeli role in the operation, which authorizes brute repression and elimination of political rivals, along with blind obedience to Trump. Why hasn't US mainstream media touched this story?

A few weeks ago we published the first hand account of a German journalist raped in Israeli custody. She co-wrote the piece with an American journalist, who was also abused repeatedly. So Israeli prison guards will do that to Germans and Americans, but not to Palestinians?
Hillel Fuld@HilzFuld
No IDF soldier has ever raped any Palestinian. Period. End of story. And if you think a dog can rape a person, you’re different level ignorant. The entire blood libel of sexual violence by the IDF is the mother of all projections. Like many other things, want to know what Israel’s enemies are guilty of? Look what they accuse Israel of. Full stop. It never happened and never will. - The end

A disabled Army veteran and her amputee husband were pulled over on a dark Georgia highway after a police database claimed they had “no insurance.”
The officer refused to review the proof of coverage on her phone or the paper policy in her hand, had their car towed, loaded her non‑ambulatory husband into a wheelchair, and left them on the roadside in the middle of the night.
USAA has since confirmed their policy was active the entire time. This wasn’t a lack of insurance — it was a broken system and a lack of basic humanity.
As a result of this incident, the city apologized, tossed the ticket, refunded the tow, and says it “counseled” the officer after opening an internal investigation. But we all know how these encounters can end. Too many families never make it home from traffic stops after trying to prove they have the right documents. How many more lives have to be shattered before this system changes?
