Donald Trump is almost three months into his presidency. So far, he’s unleashed a dizzying barrage of executive orders and deportations, DOGE-led mass firings, and cuts to science and higher education funding, among other attacks on our democratic rights.
Trump and his allies in universities are escalating repression against the Palestine solidarity movement — expelling students, busting unions that speak out, and attempting to deport organizers like Mahmoud Khalil. Their goal is to crush the movement at home that challenges the genocide they are funding abroad.
The trade war and the threat of tariffs are creating uncertainty in the economy, and it’s clear that the working class — in the U.S. and abroad — will pay the price. We cannot let union leaders like Sean O’Brien and Shawn Fain lead the labor movement into chauvinism and reactionary trade policies.
As workers, we have the firepower in our hands to fight back. With the tools of the working class — our unions, strikes, and self-organization — we can fight Trump’s reactionary agenda.
