President Trump appears to be describing his preferences as fully negotiated deals, in hopes of locking the Iranians in. The question is whether a succession of such disputes will sink the whole venture.

Israel is continuing to attack Gaza despite the so-called ceasefire. Israeli strikes killed Ahmed Wishah, a cameraman with Al Jazeera, and at least six people, including two children, on Saturday. Wishah's brother Mohammed, who also worked for Al Jazeera, was killed in an Israeli strike this April. Israel has now killed over 260 journalists in Gaza, including at least 12 working for Al Jazeera, since October 2023.
"We don't see the type of outrage that we would see if a Western journalist was killed by a country that is not a U.S. ally," says Sharif Abdel Kouddous, Middle East and North Africa editor at Drop Site News. "It's really a shameful state of affairs." Kouddous also comments on the expansion of Israel's "genocidal tactics" in Gaza that have now been "exported outside of Palestine in places like Lebanon."

Today is Election Day in New York, with a number of primary challengers hoping to unseat Democratic establishment politicians. The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) have a packed slate of 10 candidates across congressional, state Assembly and state Senate races. "People are really looking for something else other than these corporate Democrats," says Liza Featherstone, author and columnist for Jacobin. Describing the DSA as a key part of the "grassroots base" of the left wing of the Democratic Party, Featherstone says DSA members want elected leaders who have come out of movements themselves, not just lifelong politicians who only turn to movements for endorsements every four years.
Palestine is a key issue in many of the races, with DSA challengers taking a strong stand against genocide, while some incumbents have received large donations from AIPAC-linked super PACs. "People are absolutely disgusted with the U.S. relationship with Israel, absolutely appalled by the killing that we've seen," says Featherstone. Today's primary results will show to what extent the DSA is seen as a genuine alternative to the establishment wing of the Democratic Party.

President Donald Trump's name has been removed from the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C., after a judge ordered its addition was illegal. The Kennedy Center's board, which was handpicked by Trump, voted to add Trump's name to the center late last year. The battle over the Kennedy Center's name comes during a broader push by Trump to overhaul the institution, which is closed for "renovations" amid mass cancellations by artists.
"We, the American people, have rarely been afforded the decency of a public conversation or process," says Marc Bamuthi Joseph, who was fired from his role as vice president and artistic director of the Kennedy Center's Social Impact initiative in March 2025. "There were no procedural protocols in the affixing of this person's name on a national memorial, and so … this does feel like a small victory for the rule of law."
The removal of Trump's name "really does mean something. We have been fighting for it since it went up in December," says Mallory Miller, who was fired from her job as assistant manager of dance programming at the Kennedy Center in August 2025. Miller is the co-founder of Hands Off the Arts, which has been rallying outside the Kennedy Center every week. "This is just the first step in rebuilding the trust that has been lost," says Miller, pointing out that Trump "is still the boss" at the Kennedy Center and that workers at the center are still being fired.
