With less than three weeks to go before the US presidential election, coverage in the media and the statements from Harris and Trump are dominated by trivialities, personal attacks and demagogic lies. Roberson has argued since his conviction that he is the victim of a justice system that wrongly attributed his daughter's tragic death to "shaken baby syndrome" (SBS) and falsely pointed to him as the vicious perpetrator. While Erdoğan condemns the genocide in Gaza, the invasion of Lebanon and the attack on UN forces, Turkey continues to feed Israel's war machine.

Wall Street is prepared to spend billions to crush the resistance of the working class in this critical sector of the economy and restore production and profitability at Boeing. Both in the US and Brazil the rejection of the contract and workers' demands for higher wages and other benefits must be accompanied by a socialist and internationalist perspective. Diplomatic relations between Canada and India have almost entirely broken down after Ottawa presented New Delhi with what it called "clear and compelling" evidence that Indian government officials and intelligence agents have colluded with criminal gangs to carry out a campaign of intimidation and murder on Canadian soil. The JVP's opposition to any human rights investigation, based on the lie that the military committed no war crimes, flows from its Sinhala chauvinist politics and ardent support for the protracted anti-Tamil civil war. Megalopolis: Filmmaker Francis Ford Coppola's weak, terribly confused fable about modern-day America The film presents itself as a "fable" set in New Rome, i.e., present-day New York City. It makes reference through various characters' names in particular to the Catilinarian conspiracy, in 63 B.C., during the waning years of the Roman Republic.

While also lashing out at Russia and North Korea, Blinken directed his main criticisms against China, which US imperialism regards as the chief threat to its global economic and strategic dominance. Taipei's position is bound up with its support for US imperialism, the promotion of war in defense of capitalism and the belief that the Taiwanese bourgeoisie will ultimately enrich itself as a result. Transit workers are unable to afford the cost of living in the exclusive ski resort town, one of the most expensive places to live in the United States.
