 Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. The election was marked by a mass repudiation of Trumpism, but within the framework of parliamentary politics, the outcome is a pro-business, pro-war Labor government that will collaborate with Trump. One day after Israel's cabinet voted to approve a plan for the full military occupation of Gaza, the internal displacement of its people, and the takeover of food supplies by the IDF, Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich made clear the plan would be the next step in the total ethnic cleansing of Gaza. The attacks have deliberately inflamed one of the world's most dangerous flashpoints for war. The rivalry of the two nuclear-armed countries, which have already fought three wars over Kashmir, is now intertwined with the US-led preparations for war with China. This speech was given by Andrei Ritsky, a representative of the Young Guard of Bolshevik-Leninists in Russia, at the International May Day 2025 Online Rally, held Saturday, May 3. This speech was given by Will Lehman, an autoworker at Mack Trucks in Macungie, Pennsylvania and member of the International Workers Alliance of Rank-and-File Committees, at the International May Day 2025 Online Rally, held Saturday, May 3. Christian Democratic Union (CDU) leader Friedrich Merz was only elected German Chancellor in the second round of voting on Tuesday. And only thanks to the help of the Left Party and the Greens. The Merz government is undoubtedly the most reactionary and anti-working class government since the fall of the Nazi regime 80 years ago. Its central aim is to remove the last restraints imposed on German militarism as a result of its unprecedented crimes in the Second World War. The students, who have been deemed "personae non grata" (PNG) by the university for their participation in pro-Palestinian protest actions, received emails from NYU demanding that they sign a contract affirming that they will "not participate in any protest activity or disruptive activity" on campus. The CEOs of National Public Radio and the Public Broadcasting Service stated on Sunday they oppose Donald Trump's order to cut off finding to the public broadcasting services as unconstitutional. The Trump administration has already banished some individuals, but recent reports indicate that it is now seeking to expand the number of countries that will serve as foreign penal colonies. After a five-year pause in student loan collections, the Trump administration has begun ruthless collection efforts while simultaneously preparing massive budget cuts to higher education programs. The bipartisan anti-immigrant policies that have escalated for decades have pushed immigrants to take increasingly dangerous routes over deadly waters and through the deserts of the southwest. Depicting the November 24, 2021 drowning of 27 migrants in the Channel opens a window onto the crimes committed against migrants all over the world. At the online meeting, Thursday May 15 at 7 p.m., the Socialist Equality Party will discuss the way forward for workers after the federal election. Opposed to any mobilisation of the working class to defend its wages and conditions, the Tamil Progressive Alliance is appealing to European imperialism to pressure the Sri Lankan government to enact human rights legislation. The Japanese auto industry stands to lose billions as a result of the US tariff war which is creating what the country's prime minister has said is a "national crisis." "I think when working people around the world realise that the interests of the billionaires are against them, there will definitely be a revolution." The closure of the refinery will result in 400 layoffs and destroy potentially thousands of jobs across the agricultural economy in California's poorest county. The incident once again highlights the ailing infrastructure in the German capital and the impact of decades of cutbacks by every government of that state. For their latest collaboration, two jazz musicians sought to express sorrow, along with rebellion and the unquenchable desire for liberation. Despite media claims about Panama's "economic miracle," underlying the strikes and protests are obscene levels of social inequality and poverty. The workers are fighting Labour-led Birmingham City Council and its unelected commissioners, backed by a Labour government in Downing Street determined to impose a crushing defeat, paving the way for a renewed austerity offensive on local authorities across the UK.
