New Orleans, Louisiana tomorrow. ICE and Border Patrol out!

What Zionists said about the Palestine movement is true of the rightwing. For them, the critique of “Israel” is antisemitic. But these are the forces the Zionists courted. I mean, my God, they courted Marine Le Pen.

The rise of REAL rightwing antisemitism is hardly surprising. That was always part of their coalition. Also because of the Zionist project to link Jewish identity with genocide, they have given cover to real antisemitic elements now expressing reservations about “Israel” as shorthand for “the Jews.”

"President Maduro moved freely among the people, without the heavy security cordons typical of U.S. or European leaders. The security seemed to come only from the people who surrounded him as he walked around the Commune; our U.S. delegation was visiting. "

China: building socialism in an imperialist world Part 1: How China fought to build a new society China’s rise as the world’s major industrial center is reshaping the global economy. What was once concentrated in the United States, Western Europe, and Japan has shifted toward China, where hundreds of millions of workers now produce the machinery, electronics, and manufactured goods that underpin everyday life around the world.

Through snow and racist threats: Baltimore to DC march demands reparations Baltimore — On Dec. 5, Reverend Dr. Robert Turner of Empowerment Temple led his 39th monthly March for Reparations. The march, which Rev. Turner calls “40 for 40,” covered more than 40 miles, symbolizing the 40 acres promised to Black people through the famous Field Order 15 of 1865.  The December march was in memory of Isabel Wall, who in 1910 was denied the ability to attend a school because she was 1/16th Black.

Trump’s oil theft is an act of war on the Caribbean On Dec. 10, the fascist Trump carried out an act of outright piracy, seizing a Venezuelan oil tanker in that country’s own coastal waters. The ship was carrying crude bound for Cuba — two nations Washington has tried to strangle for decades.  Trump bragged about the operation, calling it the “largest” tanker ever taken and adding, “we keep it, I guess.” That is the voice of a government that believes it can plunder at will.

Trump’s interference invalidates the presidential election in Honduras An extraordinary catalog of U.S. interference – amounting to an electoral coup – may have destroyed what was already a struggling democracy in Honduras. Trump has succeeded in closing the door to progressive government and in all likelihood his preferred neoliberal candidate – previously trailing in many opinion polls – will be declared president when the count eventually finishes. While Washington’s aversion to foreign interference in its domestic elections verges on paranoia, the gross hypocrisy which runs through its foreign policy leaves it free of any compunction when meddling in other countries’ elections, especially in Latin America.

Trump’s illegal Venezuela blockade stops U.S. solidarity delegation, sparks legal response The following press release is from a coalition of U.S. antiwar and solidarity organizations blocked from traveling to Venezuela for the International Peoples' Assembly for Sovereignty and Peace. The Trump administration's illegal interference with Venezuelan airspace prevented most U.S. delegates from attending the December 8-9 gathering in Caracas, though a small number broke through to reach Venezuela. FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE…

Think about Trump’s ICE gestapo and Israeli settler mobs when you see the term “white terror” in historical works, because that’s the equivalent. I’m talking about the violence of anti-communist reactionaries.

That’s horrifying, truly a campaign of terror.

The Main Street recession: how monopoly capital makes workers pay Small businesses are collapsing at the fastest rate since the pandemic. In November alone, small firms eliminated 120,000 jobs — the steepest drop in years. Bankruptcy filings are at their highest level since 2019. At the same time, the corporations that dominate the U.S. economy are thriving. Tech giants are pouring billions into artificial intelligence, data centers and chip production. The stock market surges while workers face layoffs, shrinking paychecks and rising costs for basic necessities.

Louisiana communities organize rapid response to ICE terror raids Metairie, Louisiana, Dec. 6 — A protest at a Metairie Home Depot demanded answers after ICE agents allegedly struck and possibly killed a pedestrian during a high-speed chase the previous night. While the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office claims the crash was unrelated to Border Patrol, officials have not released evidence. Community activists are calling for JPSO to make surveillance footage public.

NYC rises for Gaza on Day of Solidarity Hundreds of people gathered in Manhattan on Nov. 29 to mark the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People. The United Nations established the day in 1977 in recognition of the catastrophe unleashed by the 1947 partition of Palestine — a vote forced through the General Assembly by the Truman administration using open threats and bribery. That vote paved the way for the Zionist settler state.

Trump’s ‘peace plan’ is a war plan for Ukraine In late 2025, the Trump White House rolled out a new “28-point plan” to end the war in Ukraine. Far from a serious bid for peace, the proposal is designed to lock in NATO’s gains, give the U.S.-backed regime in Kiev time to regroup, and blame Russia when the fighting resumes. Under Trump's peace farce, the borders would be frozen along the current line of contact in an immediate ceasefire.

Hegseth talking about the “fog of war” is wild. You were watching a video of a fishing boat on a computer screen, not getting sniped at in the jungle.

I refuse to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the United States — a state that metastasized from European colonialism and is now (teetering) at head of the global system of capitalism-imperialism.

Like other things, judge 1776 by its fruits. Really, the United States is a curse upon the world.

Garbage in the White House, Somali resistance in Minneapolis Trump’s racist tirade and ICE raids aim to terrorize an oppressed community — and send a warning to the whole working class. On Dec. 2, President Donald Trump used a White House Cabinet meeting to spit out a stream of racist abuse against Somali immigrants in Minnesota. He called Somalis “garbage,” claimed they “contribute nothing,” sneered that their country “stinks,” and said they should “go back to where they came from.”

Feeding the Pentagon, starving the poor: The class politics of the 2025 U.S. budget In late 2025, after the long federal shutdown, the new federal budget said more about the real priorities of the billionaire class and the politicians who serve them than any campaign speech or press conference. On one side, the Pentagon’s budget now tops $1 trillion, with tens of billions more handed to war contractors for ships, missiles and the F-35 fighter jet.

International workers build ‘people’s embargo’ against Israeli genocide From the docks of Oakland to the ports of Morocco, from Italian logistics hubs to South African coal mines, an international movement is taking shape to do what governments have refused: Cut off the flow of weapons and fuel sustaining Israel's assault on Gaza. On Nov. 22, labor organizers, Palestinian activists, and anti-war campaigners from six countries gathered online to launch the People's Embargo for Palestine — a coordinated effort to leverage workers' power at critical chokepoints in the global military supply chain.

It’s about making trans people unemployable By now, you may have seen the story making the rounds. It’s about a University of Oklahoma student named Samantha Fulnecky who received a zero on a psychology essay, filed a discrimination complaint, and got her trans graduate instructor placed on administrative leave. Conservative media have framed this as religious persecution: a brave Christian student punished for citing the Bible. The governor of Oklahoma has weighed in.
