Trump grants Musk access to every American’s data to spearhead social spending cuts The world’s richest man has been named by President Donald Trump to slash federal spending on social benefits for poor and working people.

Trump grants Musk access to every American’s data to spearhead social spending cuts

Musk’s role in this social wrecking operation is of enormous significance. He is an open fascist sympathizer and one of Trump’s most powerful financial backers.

Arch-criminal Trump to assume the presidency The devastating summary of the evidence of an attempted coup only begs the question: Why wasn’t Trump prosecuted and jailed years ago?

Arch-criminal Trump to assume the presidency

Why was the case not brought against Trump within days of his leaving office? Why was he not prosecuted, convicted, sentenced and sent to prison long before his renomination by the Republican Party...?

1/5 In one week, Donald Trump—felon and aspiring dictator—will be inaugurated as the 47th president of the US. The event will mark the calamitous nadir of American democracy.

Trump reveals foreign policy of annexation and global conquest Trump is making clear the true aims of his administration, which will be devoted to war-making on an unprecedented scale.

The Trump administration will be devoted to war-making on an unprecedented scale. Trump is seeking to shore up America’s power base in its near abroad, which is seen as essential for projecting power against American imperialism’s principal rival: China.

Elon Musk promotes the global fascist right Elon Musk, owner of Tesla, SpaceX, and the social media platform X, is leveraging his staggering fortune to finance and promote fascist forces throughout the world.

The response of the working class to Musk & his global conspiracy to promote dictatorship & fascism must be the fight for the expropriation of the wealth of all the capitalist oligarchs, built up through the exploitation of millions of people. Read more 👇

Daniel Penny found not guilty in NYC subway murder of Jordan Neely The hailing of Penny as a hero is part of a right-wing campaign directed against the homeless and the mentally ill, hundreds of whom have no place to live other than New York’s massive subway system.

The Trump administration and the escalating imperialist war in Ukraine The Democrats’ overriding concern is not Trump’s authoritarian designs but safeguarding the continuity of the Biden administration’s central imperialist objective: the war against Russia in Ukraine.

During the campaign, Trump made occasional warnings about the danger of “World War III,” while stating that he favored some sort of negotiated end to the conflict in Ukraine. This, however, will be among the first demagogic statements that will be jettisoned.
