We need a true single-payer system, not a patchwork. Unlike our current fragmented mess of a health care system, Medicare-for-all would ensure that Americans no longer have their health outcomes determined by the free market’s whims.
It would expand Medicare to everyone as a single, public program and prohibit private insurers from offering competing services, effectively abolishing the private health insurance industry altogether and democratizing approximately one-sixth of the US economy.
Health insurance CEOs currently make an average of over $20 million per year by profiting off the sick; Medicare-for-all will redirect the money that currently goes to them toward its intended purpose: providing health care."*
Sam hosts courts and law writer at Slate Mark Joseph Stern to discuss the Amy Coney Barrett hearings and what has transpired so far on the first day of questioning. We're live at noon ET.

Is Gov. Kathy Hochul a friend of progressives or a wolf in sheep's clothing? Since becoming governor after Andrew Cuomo's resignation she has not cleaned house of his people. Is she down with Cuomo's way of doing politics who will she try to chart a new path? And should progressives look to someone else to lead the state?

Jack: Hey sam this is jack calling from Albany how are you?
Sam: Jack from Albany. I'm well what's on your mind, jack?
Jack: Well I've been thinking a lot about the New York 2022 democratic primary and specific sort of how I feel like Kathy Hochul Governor of New York is sort of a wolf in sheep's clothing for progressives. so basically she has kept a lot of people from Cuomo's administration. I don't think she's doing enough to hold the Cuomo people to account. For example, she's left the president of SUNY who you know was helping Cuomo during the period at which he was abusing these staffers. And I'm just sort of nervous that New York State is going to be left with another fake progressive who slaps her name on these progressive policies, or you know half measures rather than a true progressive like perhaps Jumaane Williams or Leticia James. so I was just wondering what you were thinking about Kathy Hochul up to this point.
Sam: I mean I'm not if you think I'm not a huge fan. but I will say that the difference between Kathy Hochul and Andrew Cuomo at the very least is going to be really it is the senate. is that you don't have the IDC anymore. and that just the context in which she operates is different. but I agree with you like she would not be my first choice. and Suozzi may sort of eating into her support. so in that respect, it's…
Emma: It could be a four-person race. I mean I just worry that I would probably want your money to win as of now. but he's it's going to be interesting if he and James kind of split the leftier side of the vote.
Jack: yeah y

Newly elected Virginia Lieutenant Governor Winsome Sears has made history, as she is set to hold a statewide office in Virginia — something that no woman of color has done before. Even as Sears makes history, she's a member of the GOP, so she's already doing things we hate. No grace period. For example, she appeared on @Fox News and called Richard Nixon "a homeboy" for talking about Black businesses. (He was not a friend to the Black community. Very much not a friend.)

"Self-proclaimed Disney fan Jonathan Vanboskerck has caused a stir on social media after an op-ed he wrote was published by the Orlando Sentinel entitled, "I love Disney World, but wokeness is ruining the experience."
He believes that Disney's decision to bow to political correctness and the "Twitter Mob" has sucked some of the magic from his experience at Disney World.
Disney's unique ability to create magic comes from immersing people in fantastic settings, allowing them to momentarily suspend disbelief and be transported to another world. It's an incredible trick and nobody does it better than Disney."*
