Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. All the leading personnel of the incoming administration are drawn from a narrow circle of Trump loyalists and servants, as well as a group of allied billionaires. Israel has responded to last week's arrest warrants by the International Criminal Court against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant by intensifying its rampage throughout the Middle East. According to the Copernicus Climate Change Service, "The average temperature anomaly for the rest of 2024 would have to drop to almost zero for 2024 to not be the warmest year." There should be no illusions that the withdrawal of former House member Matt Gaetz and his replacement by Pam Bondi as Trump's pick for US attorney general will alter the fascist character of Trump's cabinet or block Trump from obtaining Senate approval and Democratic Party acquiescence in his nominees. The Canadian Union of Postal Workers has left strikers isolated on picket lines, while the Canadian Labour Congress has remained entirely silent on the strike and the attacks on postal workers' democratic and social rights being prepared by the Liberal government and Canada Post management. With layoffs mounting across the auto industry, Stellantis workers told the WSWS they are ready for a fight back. Goldin's courageous speech has sent shock waves through the political and cultural establishment in Germany and beyond. Acting as agents of the pro-big business DMK government, the Stalinist-led CITU scuttled the strike under conditions where it was becoming a major flashpoint for the class struggle in Tamil Nadu and across India. The strike highlights the subordination of healthcare to profit, which the union bureaucrats are defending by isolating the strike. Including mass deportation flights to Nigeria and Ghana, the Labour government has organised what the right-wing press are hailing as the "three biggest returns flights in UK history." The Luton plant 30 miles north of London and the other Stellantis plant in Ellesmere Port, north-west England producing electric vans have a closure threat hanging over them, directly threatening 2,500 jobs. The closure will layoff 404 workers starting in January and renovations are slated to take at least a year to complete "I do five days per week, 12-hour shifts, just to provide for my family. I don't have enough money to shop at Woolies, I have to shop around for food. We are not asking for a million dollars; we are asking for enough money to survive." The incident at Condell Park High is part of a broader assault on opposition to the genocide and war, particularly targeting young people. More than 80,000 people could be removed from Australia under the Albanese government's latest immigration deportation bill. Trailer manufacturing company Great Dane announced the layoff of hundreds of workers in central Pennsylvania weeks before the holidays. This column profiles important historical events which took place during this week, 25 years ago, 50 years ago, 75 years ago and 100 years ago Some €660 million is to be slashed from the mobility, transport and environment sector alone, which accounts for almost 20 percent of the total budget.
