Every exposure of the official lies helps undermine confidence in the system. But that doesn't resolve the issues embedded in the present situation - Actors, performers oppose Trump at No Kings and elsewhere–the question of the Democratic Party looms large wsws.org/en/articles/20…

Trump’s afixing his signature to the dollar is a fitting symbol of the economic, cultural and political decline of US capitalism. Trump, who resembles a Mafia gangster, is its personification - Trump to put his signature on the dollar crisis wsws.org/en/articles/20…

Sean O’Casey (1880) – The Shadow of a Gunman, Juno and the Paycock, The Plough and the Stars “treat the character and consequences of Ireland’s upheavals from 1916-1922 and they stand collectively as one of the most remarkable bodies of social-dramatic work in the 20th century.”

Vincent van Gogh (1853) wrote to his brother in 1882: “I feel that my work lies in the heart of the people, that I must keep close to the ground, that I must delve deeply into life and must get ahead by coping with great cares and difficulties. I can’t imagine any other way…”

Spaniard Francisco Goya (1746) is often ranked as the first great modern painter. Born in the 1740s, like Jefferson, Marat, Mirabeau and Herder, Goethe, David, Volta, Lavoisier and Cartwright, Goya grew to maturity in the period leading up to the American and French revolutions.

The SEP insists that the fight against war and dictatorship cannot be separated from the fight for socialism. The conditions that have driven millions into the streets will only be resolved through the development of a mass social and political movement of the working class.

The charlatan Sanders’ function is not to develop opposition to war and dictatorship but to prevent it. He presents the war largely as the product of Trump and Netanyahu, not as the outcome of the class interests of American imperialism and a bipartisan policy pursued for decades

At the major rallies, Democratic Party politicians either ignored the illegal Iran war entirely or reduced it to a passing phrase, because they agree with the war’s fundamental aims and accept its basic premises. In Boston, Senator Elizabeth Warren did not mention “Iran” at all.

The question that must be confronted is: Given the scale of opposition, how is Trump still in power? How can a criminal regime continue to govern? The answer lies in the chasm between the anger of millions and the rotten role of the Democrats and the trade unions, above all.

A message from a protester in Ann Arbor, Michigan: "For the workers of Iran, there are people in the United States that are standing with you in international solidarity... I believe that the only thing that will stop the rise of fascism is an international workers movement."

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.

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.

The official “No Kings” organizers either downplayed or ignored the illegal US war against Iran, but anti-war sentiment was visible at every protest. Alongside signs denouncing ICE raids and attacks on immigrants, demonstrators across the country carried placards opposing war.

Some 350,000 marched in New York along with large crowds in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Chicago and Dallas, as well as rallies in smaller towns and rural areas. The protests point to deep, growing social anger that extends far beyond the framework of official politics.

Wilhelm Liebknecht (1826) – A co-founder of German socialism, father of Karl Liebknecht. Tried for high treason in 1872: “I am not a professional conspirator; I am not a knight-errant of subversion. But I should have no objection to your terming me a soldier of the revolution.”

Millions are marching. Opposition to the illegal war against Iran must be placed at the center of opposition to the Trump regime. Those who launched it are war criminals. And those who are providing it cover—Congress, media, political establishment—are accomplices in the crimes.
