    Mamdani’s Campaign and Socialism’s Comeback in the USA

    The ruling class mainstream media and the the Trump White House are “warning” of the dangers of Zohran Mamdani’s socialist politics. In spite of the ruling class pushback, many of his policies, like taxing the rich, are wildly popular—and not just in New York City.

    The World Stands With Cuba, Trump Prepares For War On Venezuela [Preview]

    The United Nations voted overwhelmingly, again, 165 to 7, to end the U.S. embargo on Cuba, with the U.S. and Israel voting against. This is as the one of the most powerful hurricanes to ever hit Cuba causes massive destruction but no deaths due to the country’s organization. Plus, the Miami Herald is reporting that the Trump administration has approved military strikes on Venezuela, which could come ‘at any moment,’ and which could ignite the entire region.  Brian Becker is joined by Manolo De Los Santos, the executive director of The People’s Forum in New York.
