 Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. The WSWS publishes here the text of a lecture delivered by David North in London on November 22 examining the global crisis of capitalism and the Trump administration's drive to dictatorship. Trump's redefinition of "professional" degrees aims to push working-class students out of healthcare and education specialities and further undermine science and culture. Three weeks after the election, Mamdani is moving at a breakneck pace to support the political establishment he vowed to challenge. This lecture traces how Alan Gelfand's principled efforts to investigate evidence of state infiltration in the SWP were met by censorship, intimidation, and an unconstitutional expulsion that set the stage for his landmark civil rights lawsuit known as the Gelfand Case. The 2010 mine disaster, which killed 29 workers, and the cover-up by successive governments, demonstrate the urgent need for workers to build rank-and-file committees, independent of and opposed to the union bureaucracy and all capitalist parties. Audiences cannot help but grasp the relevance of the film's subject—a population revolting against tyranny and despotism in the name of equality and inalienable rights. CUPW capitulates to government-management jobs massacre at Canada Post with "agreement in principle" Postal workers must immediately move to countermand this sellout through the formation of independent rank-and-file committees in every postal sorting plant and depot across Canada. Workers rejected four sellout deals, but the critical element enabling the company to end the strike was its isolation by bureaucracy of the International Association of Machinists, which allowed Boeing to starve workers into submission. Not a day passes without the Starmer government moving forward its preparations for the re-armament and conscription necessary for an extended war with Russia. The ruling class is arming for a global war and preparing to suppress the inevitable resistance of the working class with violence. The militarisation of domestic policy is an integral component of the war preparations. A record revenue rise by chipmaker Nvidia has not quelled the growing fears that the AI boom is a bubble which may soon burst. The diplomatic row triggered by Japanese prime minister Takaichi's provocative remarks on Taiwan on November 7, far from subsiding, has escalated with mounting economic repercussions. The current political crisis, fueled by immense social anger, is the sharpest since the ouster of President Estrada a quarter century ago. Ford hit again by layoffs as a second major fire erupts at critical aluminum plant in New York state The disruption caused by the recent plant fires at Novelis in Oswego County, New York demonstrate the increasingly fragile character of supply chains, vulnerabilities exacerbated by Trump's tariffs. The Alberta Union of Provincial Employees announced a last-minute deal, shutting down a strike by 16,000 hospital staff, while more than 1,130 grocery workers at 11 New Seasons Markets have voted to strike over contract demands.
