THE TRUMP OFFENSIVE
Trump has been back in office for less than a hundred days, and while the charge he is leading is unmistakable, its destination remains uncertain. The two texts that follow are attempts to make sense of what is being set in motion, and what that reveals about the current configuration of political and economic power.Both reject the idea that Trump marks a rupture in American priorities. Instead, they trace how long-standing tendencies in U.S. statecraft — toward authoritarianism, militarization, and social demolition — are being sharpened and accelerated. Chaos is deliberately being created for the purpose of reorganizing governance and geopolitical alignment around the shifting needs of capital.

They can organize thousands of protests and marches and they are not going to hit the Piñatas in the proper place, the problem is not Trump, Ellon Musk, Fascism, lack of patriotism, the Russians, the so called Deep state, or to impeach a president
The problem is capitalism, and the capitalists can replace their own clowns for another clown, or another one of their puppets, they have a lot at their disposition willing to manage their political apparatus
More than 77 millions of workers elected those representatives of the capitalist class and they blindly believe that they can resolve their problem which is totally false, and either one them ( Trump, Kamala, or Biden ) was the same and they are also puppets of the capitalist class
The liberation of the working class will be obtained by the working class, we do not need presidents, leaders, senators or state ministers, or vanguard party to lead
That illusion about the government of the peoples by the peoples is just a capitalist fallacy, and we do not need government either, there is any relationship between democracy and governments.
At the present time the whole US working class ( and other parts of the world ) is completely divided by racial hates, nationality, and ethnically origin, without class unity we are not going to obtain any positive results, there are workers who are enjoying the miseries of others workers because they are been deported, they do not belong to the so called homeland, and nations are just imaginary divisions created by the ruling class.
We are too far away to understand those concepts and the concept of class struggles has been completely hidden, it does not exist, on the contrary, workers are supporting class conciliations with their own rulers
It looks like Marx and Engels were influenced by difference sources, the concept of socialism/Communism did not come out from their own brains without the influences of external sources, even more, Engels wrote that socialism was a product of the working class, and several ideas expressed in the Communist Manifesto already existed in the working class movement, it does show the actual ideological retrogression of the world working class. As someone wrote: During prior epochs workers used to said: Our socialism, and their capitalism, now they are saying: Our capitalism
It is pathetic to see that millions of wage slaves have supported their own miseries. Millions of US workers are dumping their own working class benefits obtained after years of struggles, repressions and death including the reforms obtained thru the civil right movement, pensions and medical services, the poor against the poor, workers against workers Those actions will only benefit their own exploiters, they are the winners and the workers are the losers. As Warren Buffet said: There is a class war and my class is winning the war, and he is totally correct
The real taxpayer and financier of the state is the capitalist class. Pension is deferred salary and a continuation of the class struggle, and they impose a heavy load on the profits of the capitalist class, and a bunch of workers without class consciousness think that they are part of the state when they can not even buy groceries, pay their rents, utilities and medical bills, surviving paycheck to paycheck and getting closer to bankruptcy, the same thing is the so called national debt which is also the debt of the capitalist class, and wars are also financed by the capitalist class, and bank and corporation bail out are also financed by the capitalist class. The state is only the executive apparatus to manage the affairs of the capitalist class Capitalism is their society, it is not the society of the working class, our real future is socialism/communism, but we have been drugged with the fallacies of the bourgeoisie ideology.
House GOP Advances Budget With Over $1T in Cuts to Medicaid and Food Stamps
The so called peoples representatives are just servants of the capitalists class. When workers are going to learn about the real logic of this society ?
This time the capitalists are not going to lower their profits rate, they are going to pass the tariff or the import duty tax to the consumers, despite all that, tariff is not a working class issue. Workers in many parts of the world are marching behind their own exploiters and defending the interests of the capitalist class, including USA, Canada and Mexico who signed a free trade agreement, which also shows that capitalists can violate their own accords and treaties
Too much noises about the losses in the stock market, but it is all fictious capital, it is not real capital that comes from the economic exploitation of the working class, most workers do not know that they are exploited at the point of production, but now the new brainwashing is that workers must elect rich peoples because they are not corrupted, therefore, the corrupted one is the working class. The slave protecting his/her own master class

Our exploitation takes place at the point of production. Tariff war is a fight among members of the capitalist class and they want us to be part of their fight. Our fight is for the elimination of the system of profits and wage slavery, we do not have to grease the wheels of the capitalist society, that is the job of the reformists
Protectionism ( Tariff ) or free trade are issues that do not concern to the working class, the master class wants workers to support either one of them, and workers will obtain any benefits from either one of them, on the contrary, it is just class conciliation
This article was written and published by a Maoist group and their analysis is totally correct. Some leftwing groups and independents workers are blaming the actual problem of the USA on Elon Musk, as the article says, he is not the problem, he is part of the problem, but he is not the heart of the problem. The problem is the mode of production known as capitalism

Exporting democracy and freedom to El Salvador . A concentration camp like any other concentration camp where human beings are tortured and treated like animals, the same thing that was done by the German Nazis

This is the original article from the NYT but probably without a subscription it can not be read completely
https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2025/03/29/world/europe/us-ukraine-military-war-wiesbaden.htmlAfter so much talking about the Nazis concentration camps in Germany and after making so much noises against Fascism, Guantanamo which is a territory stolen from Cuba is also a concentration camp, and most of the prisoners are innocents and poor peoples, they have been labelled as criminals and terrorists and a bunch of lumpenproletariats are supporting the capialist class, and in El Salvador another crook elected by the workers also created another concentration camp where human beings are treated like animals
Similar situation is taking place in Brazil and other countries

All these rightwing populists leaders are just a bunch of crooks and they are very popular. The actual president of Argentina is also a crook,
All those leaders ( right and left ) are populars because workers are supporting them, in our time workers like to support crap

We see the Left is now those parties supporting war and the Right those opposing it.
