  Guatemalan protesters blocked major roads to protest soaring fuel prices. The Arévalo government, which has asked for the "cooperation" of the US, is responding with the army and police. A united working-class response is needed. https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2026/09/19/ssab-s19.html

  Trump has suppressed the true toll of US deaths during the criminal war on Iran, just as the Pentagon has not publicly acknowledged the extent to which its bases have been damaged or destroyed. The danger of a desperate escalation looms. https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2026/09/19/dcvi-s19.html

  Dr. Amy Acton, the Democratic candidate for governor of Ohio, narrowly escaped being attacked by an armed Republican. But in her statement after the event, she said nothing about Trump’s incitement to violence against his political opponents. https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2026/09/07/qfot-s07.html

  With three resolutions condemning socialism in four years, the House of Representatives (speaking for the ruling class) is showing its fear of rising left-wing political opposition. These condemnations will only encourage interest in socialism. https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2026/09/04/yvhw-s04.html

  Fed Chair Kevin Warsh signaled his willingness to raise interest rates next month. Such a move would create a conflict with Trump, who wants rates to be cut. It also would conflict with the Treasury's buybacks of long-term bonds. https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2026/08/29/gofi-a29.html

  As Ukraine illegally strikes Turkish civilian ships carrying Russian goods, Erdoğan looks the other way. He has dropped his policy of balancing between Russia and the US in favor of deeper cooperation with Trump. https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2026/08/07/brmo-a07.html

  The effort to prosecute Dr. Fauci, who warned about COVID-19, is a high-profile expression of the broader attack of the ruling class on science itself. To retain their profits, the capitalists seek to roll back human progress. https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2026/08/07/kyjk-a07.html

  The Teamsters are doing nothing to fight the imposition of split shifts at UPS in New York. These inhumane shifts deprive workers of sleep and prevent many from seeing their families. Workers themselves must fight this unconscionable abuse. https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2026/08/06/nymh-a06.html

  The Spanish and European response to the refugee tragedy in Ceuta shows that European governments of every stripe are enforcing the immigration policies of the far right. This is but one step toward a police state that targets all workers. https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2026/08/06/oobg-a06.html

  The suspension of UAW organizer Raymond L. Jensen Jr., who threatened Will Lehman's life on social media, is a major political blow against the UAW apparatus. But the true victory will only come through the collective action of the working class. https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2026/08/06/luhs-a06.html

  The New York Times and the rest of the establishment media are covering all sides of the ruling-class debates over the war against Iran. But the one thing they have not said and will not say is that this war is illegal. https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2026/07/27/qokv-j27.html

  Sturgis Hospital is the 109th rural hospital in the United States to have closed since 2005. Each of these closures jeopardizes the health and very lives of community members. Each results from the prioritization of private wealth. https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2026/07/25/jngk-j25.html

  A demonstration against the ICE murder of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo is scheduled today in Houston. "Killed for the crime of just being born Mexican," as one worker told the WSWS. Others called for workers to unite in a struggle against fascism. https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2026/07/18/lvrl-j18.html

  The Turkish miners’ successful defiance of riot police and seizure of the lignite coal mine is a significant advance with international implications. Workers must unite internationally to repel attacks on their wages and rights. https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2026/03/03/brrx-m03.html

  South Korea's Yoon Suk-yeol has been convicted for his violent attack on the legislature and attempt to overturn the constitution. Yet Trump has faced no consequences for having led the January 6 coup attempt. https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2026/02/21/jxga-f21.html

  Tens of thousands of workers, students, and community members poured into the streets yesterday to call for the abolition of the ICE Gestapo. These protests must unite with the healthcare worker strikes in NY and CA. https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2026/01/31/vujl-j31.html

  Citing a new era of "great power rivalry," Merz is calling for greater military spending and even nuclear weapons. This might will not defend the "rules-based order" but the interests of German imperialism—at the expense of the working class. https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2026/01/31/48ec-j31.html

  In an act of political censorship, the Art Gallery of Ontario rejected buying a work by photographer Nan Goldin last year because several committee members found her denunciation of the Gaza genocide “offensive” and “antisemitic.” https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2026/01/28/gtiu-j28.html

  NYSNA is making concessions at precisely the point where the position of the nurses is strongest. More than 31,000 Kaiser Permanente nurses are on strike, and support is growing for a general strike. https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2026/01/28/nysn-j28.html

  Maine is the latest target of Trump’s anti-immigrant terror. Despite the administration’s lies about targeting “the worst of the worst,” it is taking a dragnet approach and detaining people with no criminal records. https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2026/01/28/nemh-j28.html

  Alex Pretti had had an encounter with federal agents a week before he was murdered. It is possible that he was deliberately targeted. More broadly, the murders of Pretti and Good are meant to intimidate those who would expose ICE’s crimes. https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2026/01/28/pxko-j28.html
