Trump Administration Orders Dismantling Of The US Forest Service

April 10, 2026 Jim Pattiz, Hatch Magazine. Educate! Forests, National Parks, Neoliberalism, Privatization, Trump Administration

Late Tuesday afternoon, with the subtlety of a wrecking ball and the morality of a foreclosure notice, the Trump administration announced the most devastating attack on the U.S. Forest Service in the agency’s 121-year history. Not a budget cut. Not a policy shift. Not a “reorganization.” An execution. They’re ripping the headquarters out of Washington and shipping it to Salt Lake City, Utah — the beating heart of the anti-public-lands movement in America. They’re shuttering every single one of the ten regional offices that have governed this agency since Gifford Pinchot built the system over a century ago — and with them, the career professionals who spent entire lifetimes earning the expertise and the authority to push back when politicians came calling with bad ideas and worse motives.

March 22 Elections And Lessons From Bolivia

March 21, 2026 Cindy Forster, Resumen English. Educate! Bolivia, Elections, Indigenous Peoples, Lawfare, Neoliberalism

Bolivia’s capitalist elites are losing their grip this week in their efforts to crush socialist candidates in “sub-national” elections to be held on March 20. Socialists, most of them Indigenous and campesino, have been elected in assemblies to run as candidates at all levels of local government. The rightwing is terrified of competing with the poor in elections, and to avoid that eventuality, it is illegitimately disqualifying leftist candidates and their parties. The twentieth-century oligarchy won the presidency last November in exactly this fashion, via illicit court rulings.

Venezuela: When The Opposition Calls For ‘Free’ And ‘Fair’ Elections, What Do They Mean?

March 19, 2026 Yader Lanuza, Popular Resistance. Strategize! Bolivarian Process, Democracy, Elections, Neoliberalism, Participatory Democracy, Socialism, Venezuela

Since Hugo Chavez came to power in 1999, the US has attacked the Bolivarian Revolution in multiple ways, including through propaganda that categorize it as “authoritarian,” “unfree,” and “undemocratic.” This US propaganda assault is intended to dictate what should be done in Venezuela, including a return to “democracy,” with “free” and “fair” elections. Emboldened by the US military attack on Jan. 3rd, and relying on the US propaganda assault, the Venezuelan opposition has launched an aggressive move to seize control of the state by seeking concessions from the Bolivarian government to purportedly ensure “democracy” through “free” and “fair” elections that guarantees “equal” political participation for all political parties. But what does the opposition mean by “equality,” “fairness,” and “democracy”?

In Memoriam Berta Cáceres

March 14, 2026 John Perry, Popular Resistance. Educate! Assassination, Berta Caceres, Environmental Defenders, Honduras, Indigenous Activism, Neoliberalism, Social Movements

Ten years ago Berta Cáceres, a campaigner against dams and mining projects that were displacing rural communities in Honduras, said that death threats had forced her to lead a ‘fugitive existence’. Most of the threats came from a company, Desarrollos Energeticos SA (DESA), that was planning a hydroelectric project on the Gualcarque River, sacred to Cáceres’s Indigenous Lenca community. Hired killers were tracking her movements. An attempt to assassinate her on 5 February 2016 was aborted. On 1 March, Cáceres said goodbye to her youngest daughter, who was returning to college.

Argentina Paralyzed By National Strike Against Milei’s Labor Reform

February 21, 2026 Otto Fors, Left Voice. Resist! Argentina, General Strike, Javier Milei, Neoliberalism, Worker Rights

On February 19, workers, students, and retirees paralyzed Argentina in a national strike against President Javier Milei’s labor law reform. It marked the fourth national strike since the far-right government took power in 2023, and came on the heels of massive mobilizations against the reactionary, anti-worker bill. The bill, which passed the Chamber of Deputies on Friday, restricts workers’ right to organize and makes it easier to lay employees off, while extending the workday to 12 hours, eliminating overtime, and reducing sick leave. It also reduces employer contribution to the national pension fund.

The War On Drugs Or The War On The Poor?

February 15, 2026 Laura Capote, People's Dispatch. Strategize! Colombia, Drug War, Neoliberalism, Poverty

The constant insistence of the US discourse on the war on drugs seems to reflect a moral crusade by successive US administrations to rid their country of drug use. However, the truth is far removed from this simplistic idea that is often perpetuated by the mass media. In reality, what the so-called “War on Drugs” seeks to achieve, as demonstrated by our region’s history, is a facade for the development of various mechanisms of imperialist intervention that, since the 1970s, have involved a combination of methods ranging from military financing to countries in the region, the installation of military bases, and even explicit support for certain candidates in electoral contests.

Argentina Passes Anti-Labor Law

February 14, 2026 Jessica Calgano, Left Voice. Resist! Argentina, Mass Action, Neoliberalism, Worker Rights

In the early hours of Thursday morning, the Argentine Senate passed President Javier Milei’s labor reform bill, with 42 votes in favor and 30 against. The bill is part of Milei’s broader attempts to crush working class organization and resistance in a state where real wages have plummeted by more than 37 percent since 2017 and continue to fall despite efforts to curb inflation by cutting public services. If passed by the Chamber of Deputies, the bill would extend the standard work day to 12 hours, reduce overtime pay and severance, make it easier for employers to fire employees, and severely limit collective bargaining.

India: 300 Million On The Streets In A Historic National Strike

300 million workers, farmers, students, and professionals from various fields took to the streets across India on Thursday, February 12, in defense of their rights and to denounce the policies of the ultra-right-wing government in the country. Workers went on strike shutting down thousands of coal fields, refineries, factories, banking, and transportation in remote corners of the country, heeding the call of the Central Trade Unions (CTUs), a joint platform of major trade unions in India, including the Centre for Indian Trade Unions (CITU), the All India Trade Union Congress (AITUC), the All India Central Council of Trade Unions (AICCTU), and the Hind Mazdoor Sabha (HMS), among others.

Costa Rica Deepens Alignment With US-Backed Right-Wing Forces

Costa Rica held elections on February 1, 2026, and right-wing presidential candidate Laura Fernández Delgado won decisively, exceeding the 40% threshold required to avoid a runoff. Fernández’s campaign was run almost entirely on one promise: continuing what incumbent President Rodrigo Chaves started back in 2022. Just a few days after the electoral authorities declared her the winner, Chaves appointed Fernández as his new minister of the presidency, reinforcing the idea that the newly elected government will be a continuation of the previous one.

Bolivian Workers Defeat Gasolinazo And Win New Rights

After several weeks of mass marches and road blockades, Bolivian workers succeeded in forcing the recently inaugurated neoliberal government of Rodrigo Paz to repeal the controversial Decree 5503, popularly known as the “gasolinazo,” which eliminated hydrocarbon subsidies in Bolivia. The measure promptly raised the prices of several products by as much as 162%. Initially, after several attempts at dialogue, the Paz administration refused to back down on its decision, despite the clear social discontent it had caused. Subsequently, workers called for a “national revolution”, which aimed to radicalize the struggle on all fronts.

Bolivia: General Strike Led By Miners’ Union Continues

An indefinite general strike called by the Bolivian Workers’ Central (COB) has now entered its second week. The strike has been in response to Supreme Decree 5503, a law condemned by unions and peasant organizations for being part of an “IMF-imposed adjustment” that is deteriorating the standard of living of the working population. Miners have been at the forefront of these protests. Since last Monday, December 22, thousands of miners have been marching on La Paz. Wearing helmets and carrying tools, they have set up roadblocks and blockades around Plaza Murillo, the central square of the national government.

Chile’s Failure To Bury Neoliberalism Led To Pinochetista President

December 29, 2025 Francisco Dominguez, Morningstar Online. Educate! Chile, Dictatorship, Elections, José Antonio Kast, Nazism, Neoliberalism

Stunning, though expected, on December 14, a majority of Chileans (58 per cent to 41 per cent) elected far-right Republican Party candidate Jose Antonio Kast as president for the 2026-30 term, defeating the Communist candidate Jeannette Jara in the second round. A strong admirer of the Pinochet dictatorship, Kast is also an open supporter of Argentina’s Javier Milei and Donald Trump, and maintains close links to the Trump-affiliated Heritage Foundation. His victory presents a significant opportunity for US imperialism.

Bolivians Mobilize In Rejection Of Rodrigo Paz’s Fuel Price Hike

Members of the Bolivian Workers’ Central (COB), the country’s largest labor organization, mobilized this Monday in a national strike against Decree 5503 imposed by President Rodrigo Paz, which eliminated fuel subsidies after more than 20 years. In this regard, miners, coca growers, and some sectors affiliated with the COB gathered in La Ceja, El Alto, marched through the avenues of La Paz, and finally descended towards the seat of government. The mining leaders, represented in one sector by Alfredo Uño Villca, demanded the immediate annulment of the decree and the opening of genuine channels of dialogue with the central government.

The Angry Tide Has Washed Into Chile

On December 14, the predictable happened: José Antonio Kast, the candidate of the far-right Republican Party, prevailed over Jeannette Jara of the Communist Party of Chile by 58.16% to 41.84%. Kast ran as the candidate of the Cambio por Chile (Change for Chile) platform and was backed by all the parties of the traditional right and the center-right. Jara, on the other hand, was the candidate of Unidad por Chile (Unity for Chile), which comprised the parties of the center-left, including the bloc of Chile’s current president, Gabriel Boric, the Frente Amplio or Broad Front.
