Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. The convention and the selection of J.D. Vance as his running mate are Trump's response to the homilies and appeals for "unity" from Democrats following the assassination attempt.

Conspicuous by its absence in the principles of the Taiwan Alliance for a Free Palestine is any reference to US imperialism or an explanation of why Taiwan has suddenly "deviated" from its founding principles by lending support to Israel. The National Party-led government is cutting funding for foodbanks as tens of thousands of people lose their jobs and more households struggle to pay for food, electricity and rent. This column profiles important historical events which took place during this week, 25 years ago, 50 years ago, 75 years ago and 100 years ago.
