    Trump’s primetime rant: lies, racism, and crisis at the top

    Thursday, 18 December 2025– Struggle / La Lucha

    Gary Wilson

    ForrentTrump and his billionaire buddies don’t seem to care about the Main Street recession. About 1.17 million jobs were cut in the first 11 months of 2025, during Trump’s time in office, with more than 15,000 store closures. Bankruptcies are rising fast and are at their highest levels since 2010.

    A story of a 1930s uprising against British colonialism is key to understanding Gaza today

    Friday, 5 December 2025 — Jonathan Cook

    ‘Palestine 36’ is a potent reminder that the blueprint for Israel’s depraved war crimes in Gaza were laid down by a British empire whose tyranny the Palestinians tried – and failed – to end

    Files expose Britain’s secret D-Notice censorship regime

    Thursday, 4 December 2025 — The Grayzone

    By Kit Klarenberg and William Evans

    Documents obtained by The Grayzone reveal how British soldiers and spies censor news reporting on ‘national security,’ coercing reporters into silence. The files show the Committee boasting of a “90% + success rate” in enforcing the official British line on any controversial story – or disappearing reports entirely.

    Europe Wants Soldiers, Not Solutions: Germany’s Draft and the Return of the War Economy

    Monday, 24 November 2024 — Weaponized Information

    CNN dresses Germany’s new conscription regime as common sense, but its language reveals an empire preparing its young for war. Beneath the talking points lies a material crisis: collapsing legitimacy, labor shortages, and NATO’s hunger for bodies. Germany’s rearmament only makes sense when placed within Europe’s deeper imperial recalibration toward austerity and militarized governance. The real story is not the draft itself, but the global struggle it exposes—and the movements rising to resist it.

    A Looming Mexican Coup?

    Monday, 24 November 2025 — Global Delinquents

    Kit Klarenberg

    On November 15th, incendiary protests engulfed over 50 cities across Mexico. The Western media has universally adopted the narrative disaffected local “Gen Z” sought to vent their righteous rage against the government, over corruption, and the administration’s purported ties to drug cartels. Footage of law enforcement clashing with demonstrators spread like wildfire, and many outlets widely emphasised how the upheaval injured at least 120 people. Few acknowledged the overwhelming majority of those hurt – 100 – were police officers.

    A U.S.-drafted UN resolution endorsing President Donald Trump’s Gaza “peace plan” passed in the Security Council on Nov. 17. Palestinians responded immediately: This was not peace — it was a blueprint for foreign control.

    The Palestinian people continue to resist the inhuman Israeli occupation and genocide, turning art and culture into spaces of memory, dignity, and hope

    Dear friends,

    Greetings from the desk of Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research.

    In the United Nations’ Humanitarian Situation Update #340 on the Gaza Strip (12 November 2025), there is a section on the distress experienced by more than 1 million Palestinian children in Gaza. The most common symptoms among children reported in the assessment are ‘aggressive behaviour (93 per cent), violence toward younger children (90 per cent), sadness and withdrawal (86 per cent), sleep disturbances (79 per cent), and education avoidance (69 per cent)’. Children account for about half the population in Gaza, where the median age is 19.6 years. They will struggle for a very long time to overcome these symptoms. There is no end in sight to the concrete conditions that produce them, namely the ongoing genocide and occupation.

    Data Center resistance: a good ground game can help stop the corporate AI offensive

    a blog by Marty Hart-Landsberg

    Major tech companies–OpenAI (GPT), Google (Gemini), Anthropic (Claude), Meta (Llama), and xAI (Grok)–are spending heavily to boost the computing power of their respective large language artificial intelligence (AI) models.  The companies claim that this spending will transform them into systems that businesses will happily pay to use and, in the near future, lead to artificial general intelligence powered machines capable of autonomously solving problems and making decisions far better than humans.

    Lenin: The Immortal Science of Liberation

    Saturday, 8 November 2025 — Weaponized Information

    By Prince Kapone | Weaponized Intellects Book Review — October Revolution Series | November 8, 2025

    Excavating Lenin from His Detractors

    There is something poetic about the fact that one of the earliest full-length biographies of Lenin in English was written not by a loyal communist, but by a defector who had once shared rooms with revolutionaries and later found refuge in the empire Lenin swore to destroy. David Shub’s Lenin: A Biography (1948) is a strange, contradictory creature—half witness, half prosecution, born in the shadow of the Cold War yet still carrying the scent of the barricades. Shub knew Lenin. He studied him. He even admired him—until history demanded that admiration be recast as testimony for the prosecution. The result is a document that cannot help but betray itself. For buried beneath the liberal moralizing and the psychoanalytic chatter is something Shub never quite manages to extinguish: a grudging awe for the mind that restructured the world.

    Greetings from the desk of Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research.

Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research partnered with ALBA Movimientos, the International Peoples’ Assembly, No Cold War, and the Simón Bolívar Institute to produce red alert no. 20, ‘The Empire’s Dogs Are Barking at Venezuela’, on the potential scenarios and implications of US intervention.
