 Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. The degraded spectacle of Tuesday's debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris held a mirror to a political system in extraordinary crisis. Between the mad ravings of the fascist Trump and the empty-headed platitudes of the warmonger Harris, the debate presented the vicious face of American capitalism. The United States and United Kingdom will imminently announce a major expansion of Ukrainian strikes deep inside Russia using NATO weapons, the Guardian and Politico reported on Wednesday. The mass protests over the past few days have shown our collective power. But this power must be organized so that Boeing workers can take control and countermand decisions that violate our will. Walsh managed to cram in as much deceit and hypocrisy as was possible in his four-minute remarks on Monday, promoting the fraud that the CWU is engaged in a fight at Royal Mail to defend the postal service backed by "the trade union movement". Neither the FDA, nor the vaccine manufacturers, nor the capitalist politicians saw any urgency in protecting the public from the newly evolved SARS-CoV-2 strains. Buoyed by opinion polls showing its candidate as a frontrunner, the party is determined to demonstrate that it is a reliable and ruthless political tool for implementing the agenda of the capitalist class. The United States and its European allies are increasingly concerned that efforts taken so far to stop China's control over the global critical mineral supply chain are inadequate, complicating US-led preparations for war. Despite talk of a rebellion against Starmer's leadership, this time just one Labour MP, Jon Trickett, could bring himself to vote against a measure that will kill elderly people in their thousands.

Ontario Progressive Conservative Premier Ford's snap decision to order the immediate and permanent closure of the Ontario Science Centre, located in a working class Toronto neighbourhood, has provoked widespread popular opposition. Details have been reported based on text messages and phone logs from family members about an exchange between the mother of 14-year-old Colt Gray and a school counselor about an "extreme emergency" approximately 30 minutes before the shooting began at Apalachee High School on September 4. The police operation, involving the use of rubber bullets and flashbang grenades, was an assault on the population aimed at criminalising the right to protest. Boston University resident assistants struck August 31 over an impasse in negotiations with BU for better pay and working conditions. Three thousand BU graduate students, organized in the same SEIU local, went on strike in March for improved pay and benefits and still have not reached an agreement with the university, having been largely abandoned by the union apparatus.
