✴️The barbarism of “forever COVID” and the fight for socialist public health✴️ I gave this report to the @SEP_US 8th National Congress. It draws a balance sheet of 2 years of the criminal “forever COVID” policy and what to expect in the years ahead. wsws.org/en/articles/20…

THE EL GAMAL FAMILY WAS REDETAINED BY ICE MOMENTS AGO. ICE SAYS DEPORTATION IS IMMINENT. PLEASE ACTIVATE YOUR CONTACTS TO STOP THIS TRAVESTY OF JUSTICE FROM TAKING PLACE.

I am thrilled to report the El Gamal family's habeas petition was GRANTED. The family has been ordered released. Chris Godshall-Bennett (@cgb_atty), Niels Frenzen & Rebecca Webber are the fed ct legal team.

On Friday, SEIU union officials abruptly called off what would have been a major strike of 34,000 doormen, porters and maintenance workers in New York City, without any vote by the membership on whether to call off the strike.

The US government intends to send young people to fight and die in wars against our brothers and sisters around the world. They're streamlining the restoration of the military draft.

These films, among other things, are an antidote to the savage, manic propaganda of the Trump-Hegseth cabal. wsws.org/en/articles/20…

In the latest SARS-CoV-2 dashboard update, the U.S. CDC now only show data for the past 2 years. The enormous BA.1. Omicron wave (winter 2021-22) and 2nd largest wave (winter 2023-24) are wiped clean from public view.

If Mamdani were transported back to the 1930s as mayor of Berlin, he would say: "Hitler is the leader of the Nazis, but he loves sauerkraut and so do I."

Turkish channel TV5 interviewed me last night (April 8) on the subject of the US-Israeli war against Iran. I stressed the urgency of building a mass working class movement against war on the basis of a socialist and internationalist program.

Read "The American Hitler, and the morality of the ruling class" by @DavidNorthWSWS only on the World Socialist Web Site wsws.org/en/articles/20…

The names of Trump, Vance, Hegseth, Rubio and Miller will live in perpetual infamy alongside those of the Nazi ringleaders of the Third Reich: Hitler, Goering, Himmler, Von Ribbentrop and Goebbels. The judgment of history will be merciless.

Donald Trump, the criminal mouthpiece of the US oligarchy, combines threats to bomb Iran "back to the Stone Age" with plans to drive American workers back to the 19th century

On Saturday I visited the Palace of Justice in Nuremberg, where leaders of the Third Reich were tried after World War II for "crimes against peace." Trump and his henchmen who have launched a war of aggression against Iran are committing the same grave crime.

"Study the history of the fight against fascism in Germany, in Spain. What this country needs is a mass movement based in the working class." Immigration attorney and Socialist Equality Party member Eric Lee addresses a "No Kings" rally in Romulus, Michigan. with @EricLeeAtty

On Saturday, I was barred from addressing a No Kings rally in Nürnberg, Germany. The organizers had said there would be an open mike. I had identified myself as WSWS editor, and was told that I would be allowed to speak. But after waiting for nearly an hour, I was surrounded by Democratic Party goons. They would not allow me to speak and condemn the illegal war against Iran, which the Democrats support.

On Saturday, March 21, I presented the new German-language edition of Where is America Going: To Fascism or Socialism at the Leipzig Book Fair. I had 30 minutes to explain that the criminality of the Trump administration is rooted in the global crisis of American imperialism.

Yesterday I presented the new German-language edition of Mehring Verlag's Wohin geht Amerika, Faschismus oder Sozialismus? [Where is America Going: to Fascism or Socialism] at the Leipzig Book Fair. There was immense interest in the book, reflecting concern over US developments.

What could be more appropriate? Having lost 90 percent of its value in relation to gold since 1971 and mounted atop a national debt of $38 trillion, Trump's signature on each US dollar testifies to the essential worthlessness of the greenback.

No worker should be meant to strike alone at one local,an attack against one of us is an attack against all of us. If we're going to lead a unified strike movement, we must do it ourselves. The UAW bureaucracy will not do it for us. willforuawpresident.org/statements/nyu…

@IrateMaxwell One of the largest reinsurers in the world provides estimates suggesting the U.S. will experience approximately 150,000 excess deaths from COVlD in 2026. The recent CDC study was about 100,000 per year in direct deaths. These values are higher than those of major cancers.
