 Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. In every sector, in the US and in other countries, the union apparatuses are completely committed to suppressing workers' opposition and preventing a unified struggle. In a 216 to 210 vote, eight Republicans led by Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz joined all Democrats in voting to oust McCarthy. On Tuesday, Judge Arthur Engoron halted the trial of Donald Trump in New York over the submission of duplicate business documents by his two sons and their business entities. The official total reported for the assets of the UAW strike fund is a gross understatement of the financial wealth controlled by the union apparatus. WSWS reporters spoke to striking Stellantis workers in Toledo, Ohio, as well as Ford workers in Michigan. The leading European Union imperialist powers pledged to escalate the NATO war with Russia in Ukraine, announcing €5 billion more spending on the war. The German parliament looks set to pass a 2024 budget incorporating the largest military spending since World War II. This will be paid for by enormous cuts across every social sector. González's arrest on baseless espionage allegations is an assault of freedom of the press, aiming to intimidate journalists and silence reporting on the NATO-Russia war in Ukraine. The population is being given a vote on the debate within the ruling elites over whether or not to create the Voice, an indigenous advisory body. But it gets no say on decisions that threaten a nuclear world war.

In this interview, a nurse at a long-term care facility in California discusses the COVID-19 pandemic and the struggle of healthcare workers at Kaiser Permanente. The plan to have private security firm GardaWorld build and operate migrant camps, is provoking popular revulsion and anger and deepening the crisis within the Democratic Party. From coast-to-coast, educators and school workers in the US are preparing strike action against falling wages, impossible workloads and unsafe schools as the bipartisan assault against public education deepens. A certain breed of feeling attends adolescence, often called "angst," which rages against the illusions of childhood as they fall but also against the hypocrisies of bourgeois adulthood as they make themselves known. Growth in this region, one of the mainstays for global expansion set to hit lowest level in five decades. "Back in the day, people would just not turn up to work over something like this and stand out the front… I'd happily go on strike for this if it was organised." Teachers themselves have been given no say on the agreement, which is essentially a blank cheque for the state Labor government over the next four years.
