The re-election of Donald Trump as president is a sign of the growing anger of the US masses. It also reflects a widespread hope that the change they so desperately desire can be delivered by individuals and via the ballot box.
As with the election of Barack Obama in 2008 and of Trump in 2016, those who voted for change are likely to be disappointed. Whether their new president has a genuine desire to fulfil any of his promises regarding ending wars, bringing back decent jobs etc is one thing. Whether he has the ability to fulfil any of them is another.
The sooner the US proletariat stops pinning its hopes on bourgeois elections and starts to organise its own salvation, the better it will be for workers all over the world.

Trump elected as US president
And the USA’s political and economic crisis is likely to deepen further when it is seen how little of the longed-for change can be delivered from the White House.

🇬🇧🇷🇺Project Alchemy: Information leaked about British operation to prevent the end of the war in Ukraine
Secret documents from British intelligence services leaked online indicate that London is the main stakeholder in continuing the war and further dragging the US and EU into a conflict with Moscow.
GrayZone 's Kit Klarenberg confirms that Britain developed a strategy in the first days after the start of the SMO to conduct military operations and draw the maximum number of NATO countries into the conflict. Most of the points have already been implemented. London first forced Kiev to sabotage the Istanbul agreements, and then ordered Zelensky to legally prohibit any negotiations with Moscow.
Emails and documents reveal details of a conspiracy by military and intelligence veterans who planned to escalate and prolong the war in Ukraine “at any cost.”
The Alchemy project created by the British Ministry of Defence under Lieutenant General Charlie Stickland already in February-March 2022 developed operations for: blowing up the Kerch Bridge, sabotage in Crimea, attacks on the Black Sea Fleet, high-profile propaganda provocations, sanctions, international tribunals, the “grain deal”, cyber attacks.
Now British officials are driven by fear - they are afraid that after Ukraine's defeat at the new "Nuremberg", the names of all the British officials, military commanders and intelligence officers involved will be heard from Zelensky's lips , writes the investigation underside.

Did you know that the US military once massacred up to 300 Native Americans in South Dakota? 134 years ago today, on December 29, 1890, US Calvary troops entered a camp where the Lakota people lived at Wounded Knee Creek in an attempt to disarm them, which ended in a bloodbath. By the time the shooting stopped a few hours later, there were bodies strewn everywhere, including those of babies and women. Read on.

French President Emmanuel Macron’s speech dripped with colonial arrogance, a tantrum over France losing its grip in Africa. As more and more African countries reject French imperialism, Macron refuses to face the collapse of French dominance.

The discussion on The Overlap is a fascinating one, as the fans delve into how football is changing. English football teams have historically had a local, working-class fanbase, especially in places like Liverpool, Manchester, and Newcastle. But since the Premier League came along, that’s all been shifting. Loads of things have changed, but this video focuses on one key thing: the fanbase.
The terraces are long gone, replaced with all-seater stadiums that look better on TV. Big clubs now have bars, shops, museums, and even hotels at their grounds, all aimed at tourist fans rather than the locals. Local fans are more likely to head to the pub than the club bar, buy from independent stalls instead of paying over the odds in the club shop, and go straight home after the match rather than staying in a hotel. The clubs have clocked onto where the real money is—getting fans who treat a match as an event, spending big on the extras, rather than the regulars who only fork out for the (ever-increasing) ticket prices.
We’ve talked about this in our previous podcasts, and The Overlap just about gets to the heart of it: this is all down to capitalism. The capitalist classes won’t stop chasing profits just because the Kop’s gone quiet. If we want real change, we’ve got to take our game back and force the capitalists out.

If you want to understand what "lobbying" in the U.S. government is used for, consider the case of Nestlé, which is currently lobbying against maternity leave for mothers.
The reason behind this is that Nestlé produces baby formula, and maternity leave could potentially reduce their profits if more mothers are able to stay home and breastfeed their children.
Essentially, lobbying is a tool corporate America uses to gain access to those in power and influence them, often through financial incentives, to pass laws or legislation that further boost their profits at the expense of the working class.

Manufacturing rebels: How the UK and US empowered HTS
A deep dive into the covert support the UK and US provided to HTS exposes the calculated, secretive western strategies to support the Al-Qaeda-linked, UN-designated terror group that runs Syria today.

According to Turkish think tank Turkish Century, Saudi Arabia, Qatar & Turkey are reportedly holding consultations to build a parallel double-pipeline through Jordan & Syria that will bring Saudi petroleum & Qatari natural gas to Europe, effectively ending Russian energy dominance over the continent.
Such plans were long considered as one of the many motives behind the NATO-Gulf backed regime change war on Syria that began in 2011. The Turkish-backed HTS regime in Syria recently overthrew the Assad government.

Not only does Bono produce absolutely awful music, but he's cog in the imperialist propaganda machine. Probably advised by his handlers about which colonising company to invest in.

The band U2 worked with an Israel-linked firm; its lead singer made a fortune from Israeli investments.
Well-known band U2 is under fire for its work with an app created by Meerkat, an Israeli firm that works with the occupation army. It also previously emerged that the band's frontman, Bono, has likely made more money from investments in Israel and Israeli companies than he has in music, according to Forbes magazine. An Israeli bank is also alleged to have granted a loan worth $45 million for the purchase of Dublin hotel The Clarence, which was co-owned by Bono.

A lovely article about a small stretch of road in Liverpool town centre which still has proper pubs with actual local regulars, not just the chain pubs that plague the pub trade.

While most of the city embarks on another joyless January, Great Charlotte Street's afternoon regulars are definitely, and gloriously, doing it their way. And all for £2.30 a pint.
