 Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. Any serious effort to combat climate change must involve the restructuring of the world economy on a planned, rational and scientific basis as part of a transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy. Following the release of the updated indictment, Trump once again denounced the Justice Department investigations as political harassment and election interference and vowed to continue his bid for a new term in the White House, even if he is a convicted felon. In this interview with Austrian journalist Josef Mühlbauer, WSWS International Editorial Board Chairman David North speaks on the historical foundations of Trotskyism, the program of the International Committee of the Fourth International, and the fundamental problems confronting the working class in the fight for equality and socialism. Broadcaster Westdeutscher Rundfunk's 24 July edition of "Zeitzeichen" dealt with the arrival of Leon Trotsky in France 90 years ago. The programme was a spiteful attack on Trotsky—an amalgam of insults, lies, half-truths and omissions. The latest wastewater data underscore that the summer surge of COVID-19 has been well underway for some time, despite the near-total blackout by capitalist politicians and the corporate media. UPS workers have no other choice but to take matters into our own hands. This contract, prepared for with months of lies, means that the Teamsters apparatus has lost the right to lead us.

The lawsuit marks the first time the Biden administration has taken legal action against Abbott's Operation Lone Star. Behind the spate of resignations and sackings from the Labour Party-led government, there is growing anxiety about how to suppress rising anger in the working class over declining living conditions. The strikers allege that the estate's owner has not deposited the legally required pension payments and that workers will not receive their pensions when they retire. India: Thousands of Bharat Earth Movers workers protest against privatisation; Australia: Darebin City Council workers take action for better wages; Fiji energy workers vote to strike. The contract struggle at German Rail is part of an international upsurge of class struggle in which ever broader layers of the working class are taking part. Nothing is left of the "lesser evil" line on which all of Labour's promoters—from trade union leaders and Guardian columnists to various pseudo-left groups—have relied on for years.
