 Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. This speech was given by WSWS International Editorial Board chairman David North at the International May Day 2025 Online Rally, held Saturday, May 3. The result was not so much a popular endorsement of Labor, as a repudiation of the Liberals and their association with Trump's program of trade war, militarism and an onslaught on social spending. "With this national election I've been in Australia 34 years. We can vote for any candidate, but we never win." In the wide-ranging and obsequious interview, Trump repeatedly questioned if immigrants, whom he universally slandered as violent criminals, deserved due process: "I don't know." Layoffs at the Stellantis Sterling Stamping plant, in metropolitan Detroit, will begin Monday as the impact of Trump's trade war policies continue to spread throughout the global auto industry. The Freedom Flotilla Coalition said in a statement: "Armed drones attacked the front of an unarmed civilian vessel twice, causing a fire and a substantial breach in the hull." That there were no deaths or injuries was only down to chance. Spain's electricityy sector is dominated by a handful of major conglomerates that refuse critical security investment and extract tens of billions of euros in profits from the grid. Experts widely dispute the claims that established childhood vaccines were not adequately tested. The executive order weaponizes language requirements to target immigrant workers, a further attack on the democratic rights of the working class. Residents expressed anger over the shuttering of the hospitals by a Texas bankruptcy court. The Medical Center's provocative May 1 announcement of even more layoffs came only days after the vote. A petition in their defence, signed by over 52,000 people, notes that police have used powers under terrorism legislation to deny the accused the rights afforded other suspects and prisoners, despite none of the 18 being charged with a terror offence. The 18 mainly young people are being held on remand over a protest last August at Israeli weapons manufacturer Elbit Systems, near Bristol. May Day rallies: German Trade Union Federation closes ranks behind new right-wing federal government The German Trade Union Federation and its affiliates used the May Day rallies over the weekend to pledge their full support to Germany's new right-wing government. The government of William Ruto, now in alliance with the former opposition Orange Democratic Movement, led by billionaire Raila Odinga, is escalating mass repression. Regardless of which candidate wins the election in June, he will be tasked with suppressing growing working-class opposition amid worsening economic and social conditions. The collapse takes place amid deep attacks on the post office, with the Trump administration openly declaring privatization its goal. The New Zealand Herald's recent article calling for the return of military service is part of a campaign to prepare the country to join US imperialist wars against China and throughout the world. IRA vow to hand over weapons; Soviet talks with Arab leaders break down; Schuman Plan for joint Franco-German steel production; John T. Scopes charged for teaching evolution. Chilling dashcam video of the fatal traffic stop, released June 2024 clearly shows that Sgt. Shane Iversen killed Timothy Michael Randall in cold blood. Schreiber had erected a canvas tent in the morning, allowing passersby to paint messages in solidarity with the people of Palestine. The newly restored 1,000-square-foot mural, unveiled in January 2025, now looks much as it did when it was completed in 1934. A tiny minority of around 0.6 percent of the population now owns 45 percent of total wealth in Germany. More and more, the situation is reminiscent of the conditions before the French Revolution 270 years ago.
