 Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. The McCarthyite show trial of Fauci, replete with wild accusations and denunciations, was aimed at intimidating scientists and all those who advocate for public health measures against the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and the threat of future pandemics. The limited focus on the campuses the bureaucracy is encouraging is aimed at preventing workers from emerging as the most powerful force against the war. A UC Santa Cruz student described how after approximately 80 arrests at a peaceful anti-genocide protest encampment Friday, many students were vindictively banned from campus by the university. The WSWS continues to receive submissions from all over the world in support of the campaign to free imprisoned Ukrainian Trotskyist Bogdan Syrotiuk. Nick Beams and John Davis called on listeners to join the fight to free Syrotiuk, the victim of a gross frameup for his socialist opposition to war. Some 100 workers and young people participated in the SGP's final rally for the European elections. Starmer declared, "This Labour Party is totally committed to the security of our nation. To our armed forces. And, importantly, to our nuclear deterrent." The presence of Zelensky condemning China and touting for support for the war against Russia is a sharp warning the brutal conflict is rapidly developing into a wider war not just in Europe, but throughout Asia and the world. The Rafah border crossing has been closed for aid deliveries, while the Karem Shalom crossing from Israel has been all but inaccessible. While the ruling class would have preferred Gálvez and a swifter shift to the right, it is confident that a Sheinbaum administration will put the defense of the capitalist profits first. A tremor went through the $26 trillion US Treasury market last week when there was a shortage of buyers at two auctions for US debt. Shakeup at the Washington Post signifies shift by corporate media to the right before 2024 elections The elevation of former Murdoch Fox News Corp and Telegraph Media Group editors to top positions at the Washington Post shows that the US corporate media is shifting further to the right in the leadup to the 2024 presidential election. Fain acknowledged that rank-and-file anger over job cuts at Stellantis was behind the reshuffling of positions at the top of the UAW bureaucracy. Having allowed Live Nation to grow to elephantine proportions, US authorities are now criticizing the company for engaging in the monopolistic practices that such growth encourages. "Foreigners" are being blamed for the deteriorating social conditions being produced by capitalism's economic and cost-of-living crisis and the channelling of billions of dollars into military spending. Argentine health, education and dockworkers have undertaken job actions against the soaring cost of living while 13,000 Saskatchewan teachers voted down for the second time in May a proposal brought back by their union.
