 Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. The PHEIC declaration on the latest threat by the deadlier strain of mpox raises to the fore the bankruptcy of the entire public health infrastructure under capitalist rule. The union bureaucrats are maneuvering to get out in front of rank-and-file anger before it escapes their control. If there is to be a strike to defend jobs—and there must be—it has to be enforced by a rebellion against the apparatus. The UAW has called off the strike at Dakkota in Chicago, infuriating many workers who are disgusted with the agreement and the process. We are publishing here the opening report to the Eighth Congress of the Socialist Equality Party (US), given by Andre Damon, the US national co-editor of the World Socialist Web Site. In recent days the full extent of Britain's involvement in the planning and execution of the offensive, as NATO's main provocateur against Russia, has been laid bare. Catalan nationalist parties voted to install the PSOE's Salvador Illa, who is massively increasing police forces as the PSOE imposes austerity at home and supports NATO wars in Ukraine and the Middle East. The response by these tendencies to the fight to free Bogdan Syrotiuk must serve as an object lesson for workers and young people in Russia and internationally as to the character of the forces that have emerged out of the wreckage of Stalinism. Ahead of the election, the IMF has insisted "sustaining the reform momentum and ensuring timely implementation of all program commitments are critical" for the next government to carry out to the letter. New Zealand Prime Minister Christopher Luxon praised NZ's alliance with Australian and US imperialism and indicated that New Zealand would support them in a war against China. Journalist and podcaster Taylor Lorenz has come under attack by the Washington Post, National Public Radio and far-right publishers for her opposition to the Biden administration's support for the Gaza genocide and policy of mass infection of the public with the COVID-19 pandemic. The case against Bodart, the leader of the Socialist Workers Movement (MST), is part of an offensive by ruling elites internationally to exploit baseless claims of antisemitism to suppress opposition to war. University workers and educators carried out a 72-hour strike last week across Argentina, while 1,300 flight attendants at low-cost US carrier PSA are set to take a strike vote. It is telling that Kamala Harris said nothing about the use of AI to dynamically raise prices, despite undoubtedly knowing of its increasingly prominent use by corporations such as Kroger. Eaton's book traces the financialization of higher education from the 1980s through the 2010s, which underlay the subordination of academia to Wall Street and the war machine of US imperialism.
