AOC's commitment to not arming Israel at all during the NYC-DSA forum will echo across the Democratic Party. She's considered a mainstream politician and serious contender for president. Expect no money for Israel military aid, including "defensive," to be a common litmus test.

What a disgraceful and patronising way to treat healthcare staff working hours on end to look after us all. These training posts are vital for the future of our NHS. To use them as bargaining chips is appalling. Time to end privatisation and fund the NHS properly instead.

ICE guards are betting on which detainee will kill themselves next. The AP just exposed the savage conditions of a detention camp in El Paso. The Associated Press got inside Camp East Montana. What they found should be on the front page of every newspaper in this country until it closes. About 3,000 people packed in per day. Loud, unsanitary quarters crawling with insects. Food so scarce that detainees steal from each other just to eat. Disease spreading through filthy rooms, showers, and restrooms that go uncleaned. People losing weight. People unable to see a doctor. People losing their minds. Staff made nearly one 911 call per day in the camp's first five months. One call captures a man sobbing after being assaulted by another detainee. Another has a doctor describing a man banging his head against a wall while expressing suicidal thoughts. A nurse calls about a pregnant woman in severe pain with coronavirus. Detainees suffering seizures, some resulting in serious head trauma. Ages ranged from a 19-year-old who fell from a bunk to a 79-year-old who couldn't breathe. And then there's the detail that should haunt this administration for the rest of its existence. Owen Ramsingh, a former property manager from Columbia, Missouri, who spent weeks in the camp before being deported to the Netherlands, told the AP he overheard a security guard talking about a betting pool among the staff. They were wagering on which detainee would be next to die by suicide. The guard said he had put $500 in. The total pot rode on the outcome. Ramsingh said the talk was particularly devastating because he had contemplated suicide himself. Guards are gambling on the deaths of people in their custody. People who are hungry. People who are sick. People who are begging for help through 911 calls that come in every single day. And the staff turned it into a game. This is not some rogue facility. This is the system working exactly as this administration designed it. Overcrowded by policy. Underfed by neglect. Understaffed by choice. They built a place where human beings deteriorate and then the people paid to watch over them place bets on who breaks first. The AP has the data. The recordings. The interviews. The court filings. This is documented. This is real. This is happening right now in El Paso, Texas, in the United States of America. Share this. Do not let them bury it under another news cycle.

Israel is now starving ONE MILLION PEOPLE in Gaza while spraying ONE MILLION PEOPLE in Lebanon with banned phosphorus and relentlessly bombing MILLIONS of PEOPLE in Iran violating international law with absolutely no consequences This's what real threat to world peace looks like

People with humanity have shut down the Langebro Bridge in Copenhagen! NO DEATH PENALTY FOR PALESTINIAN PRISONERS✊🏼🇵🇸

A Russian tanker made it to Cuba… but let’s be clear: no country should need permission from Trump or Rubio to send oil to another sovereign nation. Cuba is being strangled by a blockade that turns fuel into a political weapon, and this shipment will only last weeks. The world already votes against this cruelty. Now it must act: send oil, send aid, send solar, and demand what matters most: end the blockade and let Cuba live!

74% of Americans now say the government isn’t doing enough to regulate AI. They’re right. That’s why I introduced a moratorium bill - to give us time to address the risks and to ensure that this technology works for all of us, not just the billionaires who own it.

Hundreds on the streets of London now to protest Israel passing a racist, illegal law imposing the death penalty exclusively for Palestinian prisoners 🇵🇸 Our government must take concrete action to oppose this discriminatory law and impose sanctions, including a full arms embargo, on Israel.

Under Bernie’s 5% billionaire wealth tax, Jamie Dimon would owe $135 million in taxes, he’d still have $2.57 billion in wealth & every senior would get dental, vision & hearing benefits. Seems pretty fair for the CEO of a bank fined $27B for fraud & $290M for the Epstein scandal.

@NBCNews @mehdirhasan American Exceptionalism: When the developed world’s only nation without universal healthcare funds genocide in the Middle East while hundreds of hospitals are closed.

More than 400 hospitals across the U.S. are at high risk of closing or cutting services because of the Medicaid cuts in President Trump’s “big, beautiful bill,” according to an analysis from the progressive watchdog group Public Citizen. nbcnews.com/health/health-…

🚨🇮🇹🇫🇷🇪🇸 Italy has followed Spain. France has now joined them. Three NATO allies closing their doors to US warplanes headed for Iran. Spain closed its airspace. Italy denied base access at Sigonella. France restricted US military flights. The empire is losing its launchpads. The US expected loyalty. It got resistance. Not with speeches. With closed airspace and denied overflights. That is how you stop a war. You refuse to be part of it. Europe does not want to be dragged into another Middle East disaster. The war on Iran is not their war. And now they are making that clear, one closed door at a time. The empire can threaten. It can demand. But when allies start shutting down the bases and blocking the flights, the war machine cannot move. This is sovereignty in action. No permission asked. No loyalty given. Just no.

🇲🇽🚨 Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum just made it clear: Mexico has every right to send fuel to Cuba, whether for humanitarian or commercial reasons. No apology. No hesitation. No asking permission. Washington has spent six decades telling the world who can trade with Cuba and who cannot. Mexico is saying that era is over. Sovereign nations make their own trade policy. They do not wait for a blockade to be lifted. They act. First Mexico restarts oil shipments. Now the President is putting the empire on notice. Cuba is not alone. Latin America is waking up. And the days of Washington dictating who gets fuel and who gets starved are coming to an end.

Tomorrow, Burgum will convene the so-called “God Squad” at the Interior Department to consider granting Big Oil an exemption from the Endangered Species Act. If granted, the exemption could be the nail in the coffin for species like sea turtles, sharks, and the Rice’s whale.

Israel's conviction rate of Palestinians (in military courts) is 99.74% Israel's conviction rate of reported settler attacks on Palestinians is 1.8% Israel's death sentence will only apply against Palestinians not Israeli Jews It's not complicated. It's Apartheid!

That's it. That's the best picture from Saturday's No Kings protests in the USA. The literal Statue of Liberty being detained by police. It doesn't get much more poetic than this.

We have a Congress that is unable or unwilling to stop a war that no one wants. We need change.

United Nations expert Francesca Albanese’s latest report warns that Israel is systematically torturing Palestinians on a scale that “suggests collective vengeance and destructive intent” and that “torture has effectively become state policy” since October 2023. democracynow.org/2026/3/26/alba…

What other country in the world, besides Israel, has a death penalty law for only one ethnic group? Legalized racial execution.

BREAKING: Spain just blocked US war planes targeting Iran from flying over its territory. Airspace closed. Military bases denied. No participation. The entire country is now off-limits. Spain is refusing to be complicit. All other European/NATO countries need to follow suit.
