🟡 BREAKING: Stock markets are set for another bad week as they react to Trump’s protectionist tariff policies. Futures tied to the S&P 500 and Nasdaq were down over the weekend and both are falling again today as markets open.
While many capitalists believed that tariffs would be a temporary measure to extract favorable trade deals with others, investors now realize that this will be a permanent policy under Trump, who is turning his back on the decades of free trade policy.
Instead of trying to compete with China in the open market, which the US has failed in thus far, US imperialism has resorted to leveraging the geopolitical power it still has to try and restore US manufacturing by force, despite production chains already being globalized.
Trump’s policy aims to “Make America Great Again” by cutting the trade deficit, but so far it has only resulted in: rising prices, retaliation, and accelerating the possibility of a recession.

Lebanon must dismantle not only Hezbollah but all militias in the country, according to Morgan Ortagus. The US Deputy Special Envoy to the Middle East visited Lebanon to stress the importance of dismantling Hezbollah to receive economic and military support from the US and the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
Lebanon has been struggling with an economic collapse since 2019. Beyond Hezbollah’s dismantling, US, IMF, and World Bank pressure ties funding to normalization with Israel. In February, US Special Envoy Steve Witkoff suggested Lebanon and Syria could potentially join the Abraham Accords.
Israel's war on Lebanon killed over 4,060 and caused over $6 billion in damages. Despite obstacles, Hezbollah has been the primary source of funding for the reconstruction of southern Beirut and villages, committing an estimated $650 million.
Read here about Ortagus' role in the Arab-Israeli normalization deals and her unwavering support for Zionism.

Israel targeted a journalists' tent, burning some of them alive and severely injuring others.
Israel deliberately bombed a tent housing journalists near Nasser Hospital in the besieged Gaza Strip. At least two journalists, Helmi Al-Faqawi and Yousef Al-Khazindar, have been killed, and several others critically injured, including Ahmed Mansour, who was captured in the video.
Since October 2023, Israel has been deliberately targeting journalists, killing at least 210 in Gaza, making it the most dangerous region in the world for journalists in 2024. As testified by several journalists in the Gaza Strip, they have received death threats from Israeli intelligence agencies for their work.

The European Commission is proposing the creation of “return hubs,” centers for deporting migrants to third countries that are not necessarily their own. Migrant rights NGOs have condemned this and say that this is building extraterritorial jurisdiction, a concept that harks back to colonialism.

Venezuela will be bringing home their migrants from the US in government planes to ensure they do not get renditioned to Guantanamo Bay, El Salvador, or deported to a country that is not their own.
The program “Return to the Homeland” is also open for those who haven’t been deported but still wish to return, and all tickets will be free of charge. President Maduro announced that Venezuela is the only country in the world to offer this kind of protection to their migrants abroad.

A large protest erupted in Amman to denounce the Israeli genocide, call on the Jordanian government to take action, and condemn the collaboration between Jordan, Israel, and the US.
Protests were also recorded in Lebanon, Morocco, Algeria, and Yemen, where thousands took to the streets. Since October 2023, demonstrations across the Arab world have strongly opposed the normalization of relations with Israel. Reports have surfaced of crackdowns, arrests, and interrogations of activists in several Arab countries, including Jordan. Recently, Mohammad Al-Tawil, a Jordanian citizen, was sentenced to four years in prison for sharing an online video featuring the wills of two Jordanians who carried out a resistance operation against Israeli forces.

President Yoon Suk Yeol has been officially removed from office. The Constitutional Court of the Republic of Korea (ROK) ruled his martial law decree violated the constitution. The court found that Yoon used police and military force to block the National Assembly, calling it a serious attack on democratic rule.
As the ruling was announced, crowds of demonstrators outside the court erupted in celebration. For weeks, people across the ROK had protested against Yoon’s use of state violence to hold on to power. His martial law order in December led to soldiers entering parliament and triggered the country’s worst political crisis in decades.
With Yoon removed, the ROK will hold a new presidential election within 60 days. Supporters of Yoon had gathered near his residence waving US flags and repeating conspiracy slogans.
Why are Yoon supporters waving US flags? We broke it down here.

“We won’t survive this time. We are just waiting for our turn.” These are the words of residents trapped in the besieged Gaza Strip, enduring a genocide.
Israel continues to bomb the entire Gaza Strip, with a deliberate focus on shelters for displaced people, including schools, clinics, and makeshift tents. The UN has labeled Gaza as one of the most dangerous places in the world, reporting that over 280,000 people have been forcibly displaced since Israel renewed its assault.
Footage circulating online shows the repeated targeting of Dar al-Arqam School, where at least 18 children were killed. Struck multiple times, the attacks forced civil defense teams to abandon efforts to rescue survivors trapped beneath the rubble.
Israel’s ongoing violations of international law are not limited to Gaza; overnight bombings in Lebanon and Syria have left at least three people dead.

On this day in 1968, Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated. Mainstream media continues to de-radicalize King, portraying him as a liberal icon and erasing his legacy as one of the most radical figures of the struggle for racial justice in the US. Hence, King is little known for his fierce condemnation of capitalism.

“Qatar is not an enemy state.” — Listen to Netanyahu praising Qatar’s role and exposing the relations between the country and Israeli officials.
Two of Netanyahu’s close associates were arrested recently, accused of accepting large sums to enhance Qatar’s image in Israel. Despite lacking formal diplomatic ties, Israel and Qatar are close allies. In the past, Qatar funded Netanyahu and his Likud party with dozens of million of dollars to promote Qatari policies and continued exporting Qatari gas to Israel despite the genocide in Gaza.

Massive protests took place across Haiti yesterday, calling for the people to arm themselves against organized criminal groups.
Protesters made it clear that the Haitian police, as well as the US-funded foreign intervention, have been a total failure.
Since foreign troops arrived, they have not taken back control of the capital, and now gang violence has spread to other regions of the country that were previously unaffected.

Riot police brutally beat students protesting education budget cuts in Paris today, deploying tear gas and charging with batons. Demonstrators chanted: "Borne, give the money back!", targeting Education Minister Élisabeth Borne.
The protest condemned the French government's austerity measures severely impacting public education, with some students also burning a Tesla and a US flag in a symbolic anti-capitalist gesture.
The 2025 school year looks disastrous for Paris’ public education: 223 classes are set to close—170 in primary and 42 in secondary—alongside 262 teacher job cuts. These deep cuts fuel growing anger among students and educators already mobilizing against austerity.

Israel has bombed Syria several times, targeting the scientific research facility in Damascus, Hama military airport, and the T4 air base in Homs. Israeli Army Radio stated the attacks aimed to “warn Turkish President Erdogan.” The airstrikes coincided with an attempted Israeli incursion into Dara'a, repelled by self-organized armed citizens, leaving at least nine dead.
The warning to Türkiye follows reports of Ankara’s plans to control and expand the T4 airbase, equipping it with a complex defense system. In February, Turkish media reported plans to establish two new military bases in Syria, sign a joint defense agreement, and back the formation of a Syrian air force.
Israeli raids on Hama Air Base have surpassed 15, completely destroying it. Israeli Defense Minister Katz stated the attacks on Syria were intended as a warning to prevent forces hostile to Israel from entering Syria. The HTS-led government only issued statements of condemnation.

Huge anti-Trump-Musk protests swept the US over the weekend, with attendance in the millions at a national level. Even cities such as Boston saw over 100,000 participating.
The politics were diverse, with the rallies billed as anti-austerity protests to defend public services and social rights. Official organizers also listed NATO as one of the institutions that need to be defended against Musk’s spending cuts. Meanwhile, others present at the rallies carried Palestinan flags and anti-war placards.
The rallies brought together different groups, ranging from liberals to leftist and socialist movements, with many opposed to the inclusion of NATO in the list of priorities from organizers.

The US rushes for Congo’s minerals as the war continues to devastate the east.
As rebels close in on Goma, Washington moves fast. Lithium, cobalt, copper—vital for smartphones, electric cars, and the so-called green transition. In return, the US offers promises of security to a government losing control.
Western firms—some backed by billionaires like Bill Gates—are circling contested mines. The aim: push China out, lock the supply chain in.
Talks began in February, when Congolese officials approached Washington with a proposal: access to strategic minerals in exchange for increased security. Since then, the US has quietly expanded its presence, laying the groundwork for a deeper foothold in Congo’s mining sector.
KoBold Metals, backed by Gates, Bezos, and other Silicon Valley names, is already exploring a massive copper-cobalt site in the south. Meanwhile, more than 140 armed groups operate in the east, where villages are emptied, lives are lost, and displacement rises by the day.

“Peace isn’t the answer. Liberation is the answer.”—On the birthday of Black revolutionary Kwame Ture, watch this iconic clapback, schooling a white person that “peace” merely serves as a demand of the oppressor. In contrast, “liberation” is the actual solution.
The 1967 documentary “Tell Me Lies” captured this conversation, which explores the global response to the Vietnam War. At the time of its release, the documentary was heavily attacked by imperialist advocates.
Ture’s words continue to resonate, especially in light of the ongoing genocide in Palestine, the unwavering resistance, and the reigniting discussion of liberation.

In honor of Martin Luther King (MLK) Jr., we remember his iconic speech at Stanford in 1967.
MLK’s insightful analysis revealed that the white ruling class’ racism and exploitation provoked the frustrations of the Black community, in particular, to boil over into violent outbursts in several US cities.
He understood that the root cause of these riots was the failure of the US establishment to address the demands of the Black community and poor people in general, famously dubbing the riots “the language of the unheard.”

Amnesty International is calling to investigate the massacres of Alawites in Syria as war crimes.
Violence against minority groups, especially Alawites, has surged from the coastal area to Damascus since self-declared president Ahmed al-Sharaa took power. After collecting testimonies and analyzing data, Amnesty today denounced the killing of more than 100 civilians, including women and children, in the city of Banias by HTS-affiliated armed groups. Among the various documented acts of violence, Amnesty reports that families of victims were forced by authorities to bury their loved ones in mass graves. Amnesty calls for an independent investigation, stating that “the perpetrators of this horrifying wave of brutal mass killings must be held accountable.”

Despite the ongoing persecution of students in the US, Columbia once again rose up in protest. This time, it was in solidarity with Mahmoud Khalil, a Palestinian student activist detained by immigration authorities without charge due to his pro-Palestine activism.
The protest began during the day, with a group of Jewish students locking themselves to the campus gates. Then, protesters gathered to chant in support of Khalil. The Trump government has already revoked student visas for over 300 people as punishment for their involvement in pro-Palestine protests.

Israel is establishing a new corridor in the Gaza Strip, isolating and cutting off the city of Rafah. The “Morag corridor,” referred to by Netanyahu as the “second Philadelphi corridor,” follows the original Philadelphi corridor that separates Gaza from Egypt, from which Israel was supposed to withdraw under January’s ceasefire terms.
The Morag corridor, which divides Rafah from Khan Younis, is named after an Israeli settlement evacuated during Israel’s 2005 withdrawal. The creation of the Morag corridor, along with the occupation of the Netzarim corridor, will divide the Gaza Strip into three parts.
Israel’s ongoing displacement orders are forcing Palestinians toward central Gaza. The aim is to intensify the military pressure on Gaza with continuous displacement orders, an advancing ground invasion, and ongoing bombings. Over 100 people were killed in the past 24 hours. On Monday, Israel announced its plan to occupy 25 percent of Gaza within two to three weeks.

The global trade system is collapsing under the weight of its own contradictions.
After decades of promoting free markets, the US is turning to protectionism as Trump announces sweeping new tariffs. A 10% baseline will apply to all imports starting April 5. Sixty "worst offenders," including China with a combined rate of 54 % and the European Union with 20%, will face even higher rates beginning April 9. A separate 25% tariff on all foreign-made cars takes immediate effect.
Trump declared a national emergency to justify the move, bypassing Congress. He accused longtime allies like the EU of "ripping off" the United States. In response, EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen condemned the decision and announced a 26 billion euro counter-package to protect European industries.
Ironically, most goods from Canada and Mexico are exempt from these tariffs, as Trump will respect the USMCA trade deal, following tough retaliatory action from both countries in recent months.
🟡 BREAKING: Hungary is quitting the ICC on the same day Netanyahu lands in Budapest. The visit is Netanyahu’s first trip to Europe since 2023 and signals a clear rejection of the international arrest warrant issued over war crimes in Gaza.
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban invited Netanyahu last November, just one day after the ICC announced the charges. Hungary had already refused to enforce the warrant. Now it plans to leave the court entirely.
“Hungary exits the International Criminal Court. The government will initiate the withdrawal procedure on Thursday, in accordance with the constitutional and international legal framework,” posted Gergely Gulyás, Orbán’s chief of staff, on social media.
