 Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. Dozens of top officials, campaign aides and Georgia Republicans were engaged in a conspiracy, headed by Trump, to steal the 2020 presidential election. At the end of a previously scheduled speech on the economy in Milwaukee on Tuesday, President Biden offered meagre financial aid for thousands of people in Maui who have lost everything and are now homeless. The huge downpour has already caused 62 deaths with another 34 reported missing. Hundreds of millions have been affected—many have had no power or water for days, were stranded on roof tops or had their homes and properties ruined. Regardless of the disaster for the population of Ukraine, the US continues to pump hundreds of millions of dollars into the war each week with no end in sight. The meeting will discuss on how to build up a movement of the international working class to put an end to the US-NATO war against Russia and prevent a descent into a devastating nuclear third world war. There are early signs workers are furious over the US deal, which includes a $14 raise spread out over six years. That is "is not cool when we're already behind cost of living," one worker said. "I've never seen such a mass exodus of highly capable, long term carriers." one postal worker said. "What other company just decided they think you're making too much money and just takes it out of your pay?!" The letter is a devastating indictment of Netanyahu's government, its international backers in Washington, London, Berlin and other capitals and a major rebuttal of the refusal of Israel's protest leaders to oppose the repression of the Palestinians. Monday's meeting marked a step forward in the struggle to defeat the conspiracy of the union leadership and the Democratic Party to impose sellout contracts, pledging to establish rank-and-file control and unite the struggles of U-M grad student instructors and Detroit teachers. Forty years after the US-backed military dictatorship that unleashed a wave of fascist terror against workers, a far-right party that has whitewashed and defended the crimes of the dictatorship threatens to come to power. Despite being presented as the representative of the "extreme left" by the bourgeois press, Mélenchon made clear in remarks following last month's police crackdown that he is an experienced capitalist politician who works to suppress the working class' struggle against the capitalist state. Smita Malhotra, chief medical director of the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD), published a tweet Sunday encouraging parents of the district's 565,000 students to their children into school even if they were experiencing symptoms of COVID-19 or other illnesses. The unions for 4,500 workers announced a deal only hours before a planned three-day strike was due to begin Tuesday. The National Post, the mouthpiece of the most avowedly right-wing sections of the Canadian ruling class, recently published an article promoting the view that medically assisted death is an ethical solution to the plight of poor people who, due to their want of money, can't access the health care they desperately need. The over 100-day strike, which was joined by actors last month, is in danger of a major sellout as long as the negotiations between the major studios and the union remain secret to the rank and file. Officials within the trade union apparatus and Democratic Party politicians have stepped up their appearances on the picket lines, as well as public comments feigning support for the strike, a sign that the ruling class intends to end it as quickly as possible. Tornado warnings and simultaneous flash flooding forced workers to halt the assembly line and take shelter last Friday night. Across the country, there is mounting disaffection with the government, particularly over its escalating commitment to US preparations for a catastrophic war against China and massive military spending. Since 2017, at least 13 food delivery riders have been killed while working in Australia. The only Higher Education Committee faction to explicitly support an early strike ballot was the UCU Left, led by the Socialist Workers Party. But anyone looking to them for leadership will be cruelly disappointed.
