Last year, the seven largest private health insurers collected $1.39 trillion in profit. Enough already. It's time for Medicare for all.

NEW: After reviewing leaked documents, we have found UnitedHealth is strategically limiting access to a treatment for thousands of children with autism across the country in order to cut costs. Advocates say the company’s strategy may be illegal. www.propublica.org/article/unit... 👇

THIS is how it’s done, folks.

ABC News caved days before they were gonna get that clown in for a sworn deposition. On that alone, I will never forgive them.

🌊 This is a Kennedy and if you’re a liberal like JFK, we believe the same ideals 🌊 Liberal shouldn’t mean left or right, it’s just right.

Land doesn’t vote. Stop pretending it does.

Lots of psychopaths pretending to be autistic these days.

Normalize using the word “oligarchy” 🇺🇸

🇸🇾🇹🇷 Syrian refugees are returning to the country en masse after the fall of the Assad regime. There are many kilometers of traffic jams on the border with Turkey.

Remember as the Syrian people awake to freedom from a brutal dictator, this moment began with brave children calling for the fall of the regime. Parents then took up the cause. Then students marched into oncoming bullets. The war began as a peaceful protest movement that has now finally won.

JUST IN: Syrian President Bashar al-Assad has left the country and given orders for a peaceful transfer of power, Russia's foreign ministry says. Follow live updates.

Assad orchestrated the torture & murder of those who opposed him. He dropped chemical weapons & deadly nerve agents on civilians including children. He is a monster who belongs in prison. For life

Mark my words, the brazen discrimination and attempts to re-marginalize the LGBTQ+ community will spread. It’s a pre-cursor to banning/refusing to marry interracial couples. It’s not about religion, it’s about bigotry and hate — plain and simple. We have to fight this every chance we get 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️

The scenes from Sednaya prison in Syria are shocking; people wandering into the light after decades in dark detention & torture. I interviewed Omar Alshogre, a former Sednaya child prisoner, about his reaction to history being made in Syria this weekend. Watch/share/subscribe:

From a piece I wrote for the Guardian in 2012 about how the US sent innocent people to Syria to be tortured by the Assad regime as part of their ‘war on terror’ rendition program: www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Profoundly moving to see Syrians rushing to return to their country.. Takes away all the myths promoted about refugees.. Noone wants to flee from their homes, from lands they grew up.. Time to help Syrian to rebuild 🙏🙏

Massive celebrations across Europe, these are the scenes in Berlin as hundred of thousands of people can now return home from Syria. Assad made at least 12 million into refugees worldwide. #freeSyria

It's OK to let Syrians be happy for one day as they overthrow a genocidal tyrant. Assad was a monster. Let the people celebrate their freedom.

Zelensky: We all know Putin very well – he is sick with war. He began his career with the brutal war against Chechnya and has been constantly instigating other wars. He can only be stopped by force, the force of world leaders who can become leaders of peace.

To all the analysts jumping on here to warn about tomorrow, Syrians are ten steps ahead of you. Have some basic human empathy and let those celebrating the release of the unjustly detained, the reuniting of families, the hopes of return, and the end of a brutal regime do so in peace.

Assad has arrived in Russia, granted asylum by Putin. Now they'll all be in one place for their meetings with Tulsi

Some people who supported Palestinian freedom for the past 14 months seem upset about Syrians getting freedom from a dictator. And a lot of people who spent the past 14 months opposing Palestinian freedom are now cheering Syrians getting freedom. So much moral inconsistency.

The rebels have liberated hundreds of women, toddlers and babies held in Sednaya prison. They've also released hundred of prisoners some of which were tortured to the point of forgetting their own identity, others held for decades for speaking out against the regime. #freeSyria

I’m not a Syrian refugee anymore. I’m Syrian. Just Syrian.

Imagine there's no countries It isn't hard to do; Nothing to kill or die for And no religion, too. Imagine all the people Livin' life in peace. You may say I'm a dreamer But I'm not the only one. I hope someday you'll join us And the world will be as one. John Lennon, 10/9/40-12/8/80

"’The tyrant Bashar al-Assad has fled. We declare the city of Damascus free from the tyrant Bashar al-Assad,’ rebel leaders said in a statement. Eyewitnesses told Reuters that thousands of Damascus residents had gathered in the city center, chanting ‘Freedom.’” kyivindependent.com/breaking-syr...

Ukraine was invaded because the West allowed Assad & Russia to commit genocide in Syria; Syria is now being liberated because Ukraine refused to surrender to Russia or listen to the West's weak deesclation policies that only protect tyrants. A better world is possible and it's worth fighting for.
