Mamdani embraces Trump: Collaboration with fascism from the DSA mayor
 Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. Mamdani stood side-by-side with the would-be dictator who has the blood of thousands on his hands, and may soon have the blood of millions, as his war fleet assembles off the coast of Iran. Stellantis' announcement of no profit sharing payout in 2026 provoked immediate outrage among tens of thousands of US workers who rely on the checks to pay essential bills. Trump's blacklisting of Anthropic and CEO Dario Amodei's response expose the real character of the dispute: not a conflict between ethics and militarism, but between two factions of the ruling class over the terms of AI's integration into the US war machine. While the DOJ has cited possible corruption, it is likely that Carvalho was targeted for his criticisms of ICE raids targeting immigrant children. Nurul Amin Shah Alam, 56, who was nearly blind and unable to speak English, was left at a donut shop in Buffalo by two Customs and Border Patrol agents five miles from his home and found dead on a downtown city street four days later. Ottawa plans to more than double the defence workforce, pour hundreds of billions into war production and reorganize industry around militarism, with workers to pay through austerity and repression. The film is built around the family life of playwright William Shakespeare and Anne Hathaway in Stratford-upon-Avon in the 1590s and the death of their 11-year-old son. Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi made a two-day visit to Israel this week, choosing to further elevate India's "strategic partnership" with Israel at the very point that Washington and Tel Aviv are poised to launched a criminal, unprovoked war on Iran. Plans for war against China coincide with plans for the suppression of political opposition and democratic rights within Japan. The results were a rout for the Grassroots Left faction led by Zarah Sultana and its declared aim of transforming Your Party into an anti-Zionist, anti-imperialist party dedicated to nationalising the economy. Educators and parents voiced their opposition to Mamdani's decision—and to the leadership of the UFT, which had put up no opposition to it—online as well as in a petition that collected over 170,000 signatures. Across the US, teachers and students who join or support anti‑ICE walkouts are being investigated, disciplined and even criminally threatened. The degeneration of the games has reached the point where the International Olympic Committee is little more than a direct tool of imperialism. The Labor government's expanded "first home buyer" schemes have not provided relief for workers and young people but rather have inflated prices and further enriched banks, developers, and existing property owners. "The era of manually writing code as the core act of engineering is over," according to WiseTech CEO Zubin Appoo. The two-year agreement follows a similar sellout by the secondary teachers' union, with both deals aimed at imposing the right-wing coalition government's austerity agenda. As Argentina's Senate approved fascist President Javier Milei's Labor Modernization bill, pseudo-left unions promoted nationalist appeals to the Peronist bureaucracy, repeating the betrayals that paved the way for the 1976-1983 dictatorship. India: Andhra Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation women workers protest; Private hospital nurses in Kerala strike for higher pay; National action by Sri Lankan non-academic university workers; Queensland public sector trades workers resume industrial action; New Zealand shellfish processing workers strike. A leadership challenge to Keir Starmer is ever more likely after May's local elections, which Labour is also expected to lose heavily. Comments from postal workers on the CWU's Facebook questioned whether the rejection of ODM at pilot offices signified support for the union's proposal, which involves absorbing additional work by reducing existing duties and positions within the "Heavy and Light" model. Staff have taken three one-day strikes in February. They have now held 13 strike days since a ballot in September last year About the WSWS The World Socialist Web Site is published by the International Committee of the Fourth International, the world Trotskyist movement, and its affiliated sections in the Socialist Equality Parties around the world.
