Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. Three years after the start of the Ukraine war, the narrative used by the imperialist powers to justify their provocation and escalation of the war is being exposed as a pack of lies. "Everyone is very aware that this is a provocation aimed at demoralizing us," one federal worker told the WSWS. "We won't let it work." Trump's decision to utilize and expand military bases for internment is a further sign of the breakdown of democratic forms of rule in the US and underscores that the ruling class is preparing to revive and expand on the worst crimes in world history. It remains unclear how many individuals were arrested in Sunday's operation, but the scale of the enforcement effort suggests a significant number. The gold surge is the expression of tensions and contradictions building up in the global financial system, accelerated by Trump's economic war against the world. A new study from the National Bureau of Economic Research estimated that in the first three years of the COVID-19 pandemic, there were 1.75 million excess deaths. Despite Stellantis rescinding its threat to lay off 1,134 workers at the Jeep complex in Toledo, the looming threat of tariffs and trade war presages a renewed attack on auto jobs. The following statement was issued by Will Lehman, a rank-and-file worker at Mack Trucks in Macungie, Pennsylvania. Lehman ran for UAW president in 2022. In attempting to reconcile how one can be both "progressive" and prepared to work with fascists, they are compelled to distort what the Russian revolutionary Leon Trotsky wrote on the unions. Workers face a struggle on two fronts, against a ruthless global corporation and the Unite bureaucracy which is facilitating the job cuts. The PSOE-Sumar government aims to further reduce pension spending, redirecting funds toward areas such as military expenditure, while ensuring a large pool of cheap labour. To counter the company-government-union gang-up against them, Canada Post workers must take the struggle into their own hands and prepare an industrial and political counteroffensive against government-strikebreaking and for secure jobs for all. The workers haul imported cargo from the port to warehouses across the Inland Empire and play a crucial role in the supply chain. The government's rabid response to the Chinese warships is aimed at justifying a major spending increase on the military and greater integration into US-led war plans. The carefully orchestrated state-federal operation reflects the strategic importance of the 60-year-old facility to the Australian ruling class, amid escalating plans for war against China. As Linda McMahon's confirmation hearing exposed ongoing and coming unprecedented attacks on public education, teacher union bureaucrats divert anger into letter-writing campaigns to legislators. Workers protest Argentine President Milei's cuts to pension and medical payments, while 500 contract drivers for the US Postal Service are spreading their strike across the US. The CFPE calls on teachers and school workers to join our ranks to fight for decent conditions and wages for all educators, and a public education system that provides the highest quality schooling for all students. Corrections officers object to even limited constraints on their ability to impose a regime of terror on inmates. By taking a subjective, "lyrical" approach, director RaMell Ross has turned a novel about racism into a narrower, murkier movie.
