After bitterly attacking Joe Biden’s foreign policy as incompetent, chaotic, and likely to leave the Middle East in flames, Donald Trump has continued everything that made Biden’s final year so disastrous — only dumber and more violent.
The era of US-led capitalist globalization seems to be coming to an end. For Filipino scholar and activist Walden Bello, it’s time to build a new, more equal distribution of power and resources around the globe.
Immigration raids and detention aren’t just political theater — they supply corporations with cheap, captive labor and help roll back protections for all workers. Behind the language of border security lies coerced labor that echoes the convict lease era.
Union approval is at historic highs, yet density keeps falling. The problem isn’t messaging but the lack of strategy that can turn popularity into power.
China and the US are currently locked in a dangerous rivalry, but things don’t have to be this way. We spoke to Dan Wang, the author of a new book which argues the two nations should learn from one another.
Not just Israel’s leaders are responsible for the genocide but also all those who support them. The Gaza Tribunal held in London last week heard evidence of direct British government involvement in Israel’s crimes.
Elon Musk is poised to become the world’s first trillionaire. Still, liberals are hand-wringing about the potential pitfalls of wealth redistribution. In truth, we should have stopped the rise of the economic superelite long ago. Better late than never.
José Martí spent much of his short life outside Cuba, preparing a struggle to liberate his country from Spanish colonialism. The ideas and example of Martí would inspire a second struggle against US neocolonial domination after his death.

Residents of Chicago’s most violent neighborhoods need investment in their well-being, not humvees patrolling them like a military occupation, writes Chicago city council member Rossana Rodriguez.
Bernie Sanders clearly sees the future of his movement in Zohran Mamdani, who is now poised to become the next mayor of New York City. In inheriting Sanders’s movement, Mamdani inherits a daunting set of questions and challenges.
Chicago is attempting to model resistance to Donald Trump’s looming authoritarian military occupation of its streets.
At a Brooklyn town hall with Bernie Sanders on Saturday, Zohran Mamdani recounted how Bernie “gave me the language of democratic socialism to describe my politics” and called on supporters to keep organizing after Election Day. We reproduce his speech here.
Our current system for elections to the House of Representatives systematically enables gerrymandering and helps trap the Left inside the Democratic Party. We need proportional representation.

Vivek Chibber on how we should understand capitalism’s middle strata — and why so many professionals are moving toward anti-capitalist politics.
