The attack on Venezuela has nothing to do with drugs. The US has long coveted its resources.

Lenin’s 1904 critique of Trotsky was outdated by 1917. He insisted Trotsky join the Bolsheviks and later backed him as his deputy. Trotsky led the Red Army and co-led the revolution. S4All distorts history by ignoring their unity when it mattered most.

Trump’s persecution of Mahmoud Khalil for “thought crimes” is the spearhead of dictatorship The direct precedent for the Trump administration’s positions is the concept of <em>Willensstrafrecht </em>(“punishment of the will”), developed by the Nazi regime of Adolf Hitler.

"In a memo submitted by the State Department last week, Secretary of State Marco Rubio asserted that Khalil should be deported because of his “past, current, or expected beliefs, statements, or associations that are otherwise lawful.” "

With support for tariffs, UAW bureaucracy endorses Trump’s fascist plans for war on the working class The United Auto Workers’ endorsement of Trump’s auto tariffs amounts to a declaration of support for world war.

The bureaucratic union apparatus is not your friend!

Trump executive order seeks to suppress voting by millions of US citizens The order requires forms of ID that an estimated 20 million American voters currently lack, while rejecting a birth certificate as proof of citizenship.

Trump's latest executive order imposes stringent voter ID laws, threatening to disenfranchise millions.
This doesn't just affect immigrants. Many citizens cant produce proof of citizenship under these restrictions. This is basically forcing us to pay to vote.

You can name call all you want but clear, correct, and scientific dialectical analysis speaks for itself. I have read the history, and they've taken the correct position from day one.

"There are two Americas: One is rich and getting richer. The other is poor and sinking deeper. The time has come for the working class to unite under a new banner" - James P. Cannon 1953

The "new banner" to which Cannon refers lives today in the program of the Socialist Equality Party & ICFI

Free Mahmoud Khalil! Mobilize the Working Class Against Trump’s Dictatorship! This report was delivered to a meeting of the International Youth and Students for Social Equality (IYSSE) at University of Michigan on March 20.

The U.S. ruling class claims to defend “freedom.” But under Trump’s dictatorship, journalists vanish, protesters are jailed, and both parties uphold it. Fascism grows from capitalist crisis. Only a revolutionary working class can stop it.

5 years of the COVID-19 pandemic: The origins of a social catastrophe The COVID-19 pandemic has laid bare the incapacity of capitalism to deal with the problems of mass society, and that this social system is in an advanced state of regression.

No to European rearmament! When the European powers speak of the end of the “international rules-based order,” they are preparing for a return to the pursuit of their own imperialist interests by force of arms.

What's happening internationally is about to cause major consequences for the working class worldwide. It already is. Please pay attention and act accordingly. Build those rank and file committees!

Bernie Sanders attempts to divert opposition to Trump behind the Democratic Party and support for war with Russia Sanders' rebuttal to Trump sought to cover up the essential agreement of the Democratic Party with Trump’s social austerity policies and attacks on democratic rights.

I sincerely hope all leftists have finally realized that neither party is our friend and Bernie has betrayed us at every turn. Fuck both parties. Socialist revolution is our only way out.

Gotta love your neo-liberal perspective there sir! Capitalism is the driving force behind these wars, the working class on both sides should turn their arms against their own rulers. I'm the full blown anti imperialist type of anti fascist.
