 Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. The outcome of the Republican primaries lays bare the staggering crisis of the entire American political system. The European imperialist powers' war on Russia in Ukraine is bound up with a war on the working class at home waged by a vast military-police machine the EU is setting out to build. The Biden administration has worked to conceal weapons transfers for use in Gaza by dividing them into more than 100 separate transactions that fall below the minimum threshold for reporting to Congress. The signatories assert that "platforming art representing a state engaged in ongoing atrocities against Palestinians in Gaza is unacceptable. No Genocide Pavilion at the Venice Biennale." Despite cruising to primary victories in their respective races, voters registered their disgust with both political parties and their candidates by casting protest votes, actually protesting, or abstaining entirely from the "democratic" process. Brazilian President Lula's recent expression of support for the genocidal Biden and the participation of fascist presidents Milei of Argentina and Bukele of El Salvador in the Trump-dominated CPAC are early manifestations of the particularly overwhelming impact of the US election on Latin America. A trove of court documents released on Monday show Wisconsin attorney Kenneth Chesebro and former judge Jim Troupis were instrumental in formulating the strategy of Donald Trump to overturn the 2020 elections through court cases that generated "a cloud of confusion" combined with the appointment of "alternative" electors in seven key states. Galloway's election on an anti-Starmer and anti-Labour ticket has thrown into sharp relief Corbyn's steadfast refusal to mount his own political challenge. Sir Keir Starmer's response to the budget, in which he complained that the Tories had "maxed out the nation's credit card", confirmed that the election of a Labour government would bring no respite from the economic and social war waged against the working class. This campaign is essential to ensure that the Socialist Equality Party's name appears on the ballot papers for the next federal election, as the only party fighting for the socialist alternative to capitalist barbarism, war, inequality and dictatorship. By citing their own statements and actions, the legal brief establishes irrefutably that Labor ministers have facilitated and cheered-on a genocide against the Palestinians in real time. "We need to take this system down and create something more fair for humanity." The imperialist powers are utterly indifferent to the plight of the Haitian people—for which they are principally responsible—and hostile to their democratic and social aspirations. Hundreds of thousands of jobs, some of them employing highly qualified workers, are being cut in German industry, especially in the automotive and car parts sectors. But the chemical, steel, construction, household appliance and software industries as well as the retail trade and the health sector are also affected. The layoffs are not limited to the automotive industry. The chemical, steel, construction, household appliances and IT sectors are also affected. In retail, in the health sector, where dozens of hospitals are threatened with bankruptcy, and in rail freight, tens of thousands of jobs are also at risk. Protesters denounced the blatant hypocrisy of the New Zealand government's decision to designate Hamas as a terrorist organisation, while supporting Israel's genocidal slaughter in Gaza. Workers were given little time to review the contents of the contract, and the bureaucracy threatened that if they did not ratify the contract their strike pay would be cut in half. The ATU Local 689 has created conditions for the extortion of its own members. The fine print and numerous loopholes that have doubtlessly been introduced into the final contract after the fact will more than make up for whatever compromises Transdev has accepted. The ongoing measles outbreak across the US, with its epicenter in Florida, continues to spread to new states. The Panhandle wildfires follow last year's record-breaking fires in Canada, with its large emissions of smoke, soot, and ash traveling for thousands of miles.
