Ukrainian socialist Bogdan Syrotiuk, a fighter for a unified struggle of Ukrainian and Russian workers against the reactionary war of the regimes in Kiev and Moscow, has been arrested on trumped-up charges by the fascistic Zelensky dictatorship. Demand his freedom! #FreeBogdan

On Saturday, I was barred from addressing a No Kings rally in Nürnberg, Germany. The organizers had said there would be an open mike. I had identified myself as WSWS editor, and was told that I would be allowed to speak. But after waiting for nearly an hour, I was surrounded by Democratic Party goons. They would not allow me to speak and condemn the illegal war against Iran, which the Democrats support.

It's said Trump has "no strategy" for the war against Iran. In fact the US and European imperialists have a very real strategy, which is to attempt to restore colonial domination all over the world. The ruling elites have declared, "Slaves you were, and slaves you shall be."

At meetings in Berlin and London last week, I announced that the World Socialist Web Site is launching Socialism AI, a revolutionary tool that will harness artificial intelligence for the development of socialist consciousness in the international working class.

Trump's election sets the stage for repression & social counter-revolution. The Democrats, despite their warnings of his “existential threat” to democracy, are in full retreat. Attend Sunday's urgent online event to discuss a strategy for the working class to stop fascism.

The Trump administration is establishing a presidential dictatorship, based on the military, police, paramilitary forces and fascist gangs. The Socialist Equality Party advances this revolutionary program to struggle against Trump and the degenerate oligarchy which he represents.

On November 23, a podcast sponsored by Bay Area middle-class radical Steven Zeltzer - a longtime opponent of the Socialist Equality Party - invited DSA member and Zionist-funded historian Aidan Beatty to promote his scurrilous biography of Gerry Healy. Zeltzer assembled a panel of four other SEP haters to laud Beatty's hackwork. After 90 minutes of diatribes against Healy and the SEP, I was finally allowed to speak. Within little more than three minutes, Zeltzer interrupted me to stop my exposure of Beatty's lies as well as his decade-long reliance on funding from Zionist and pro-Israel organizations. Despite the disruption, I challenged Beatty to explain his falsification of history and why Zionist foundations funded his anti-Healy and anti-SEP project. Beatty refused to explain his connections with pro-Zionist organizations. Beatty was also challenged by labor historian Tom Mackaman (Thomas Mackaman), who elaborated on Beatty's historical falsifications, and SEP national secretary Joseph Kishore (Joseph Kishore). We are posting the audio record of my remarks and those of Mackaman and Kishore, as well as Beatty's refusal to respond to the issues raised by these speakers.

At Sunday's webinar, SEP national committee member Eric London provided a detailed analysis of the election, proving that Harris's defeat was caused above all by the collapse of working class support. The main electoral base of the Democrats is the affluent middle class.

On August 25 I spoke on the island of Büyükada at the Second International Leon Trotsky Conference. I reviewed Trotsky's struggle against the rise of fascism during the four years of his Büyükada exile (1929-33) and the immense contemporary significance of his political legacy.
