📍Scores Fall Ill at Air Force Base After Hegseth Makes Flu Vaccine Optional
The defense secretary described the vaccine requirement, which he lifted in April, as an “absurd, overreaching” mandate. A major flu outbreak has sickened nearly 160 troops at Lackland Air Force Base in Texas less than two months after Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced that U.S. troops would no longer be required to be vaccinated for the flu, defense officials said.
The outbreak at the base in San Antonio raced through an Air Force Basic Military Training wing, where new recruits sleep on bunk beds in open bays and share meals at large communal tables. A trainee in his sixth week of basic training died after falling ill on Friday.

ICE violently detain yet another U.S. citizen—refuse to even look at his ID.
3 agents tackle man and injure his face—drag him away to unmarked car.
"He's not even an immigrant!" witness yell. "He's from here!"
"Why y'all kidnapping him for?"
Agents refused to give their badge numbers, show ID, or give any explanation.
"Take your mask off... why are you so scared?"
Incident occurred in Brooklyn, New York.

El capitalismo no se basa en el hallazgo accidental de perlas, en vasos de agua en el desierto o en obras de arte exclusivas, sino en la producción masiva y sistemática de mercancías mediante el trabajo humano. 2/10

It is not enough to be appalled. Horror, left to itself, exhausts itself in impotent frustration or isolated episodes of individual resistance.
What is required is the development of a mass working class socialist movement, which is guided by an internationalist socialist program
The willful destruction of UNESCO World Heritage sites is a repudiation not only of international law but also of human civilization itself

On Sunday, the World Socialist Web Site is sponsoring an international webinar to outline a strategy and program to stop the brutal imperialist onslaught against Iran. The aim of this discussion is to place this event in its appropriate historical, political and social context.
Video by @garanceburke & @AP telling the story of13 yr old girl who tried to kill herself at Dilley due to ICE brutality. Fed worm, separated from mom, denied med. care, then deported.
Dilley is an indelible scar on American history.

On February 24, all the networks broadcast Trump's two hour "State of the Rich" rant and the cowardly response of the Democrats. The people heard nothing but Republican lies and empty Democratic platitudes. This is the socialist analysis of the real State of the Union.
