22/01/2021 adminCommunist Party USA

Communist Party USA In Hunts Point, the Bronx, temperatures dropped into the “code blue” 20s Wednesday night, but the workers on strike at the Hunts Point Produce Market kept the picket line going. Some gathered in clusters around makeshift bonfires directly on the pavement and in garbage cans, and some danced to the music pumping out of their cars parked nearby and from a large battery-powered PA system. Others stood around in conversation. They are demanding a $1 an hour raise and better health care. “They deserve $4 an…

U.S. hypocritically re-lists Cuba as state sponsor of terrorism

14/01/202114/01/2021 adminBlockade, Communist Party USA, Cuba, USA

The outgoing Trump administration is determined to create maximum problems for its successor. On Monday, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo issued a number of policy directives designed to leave a violent extreme-right stamp on U.S. foreign policy for years. One of the most mendacious and hypocritical policies concerns socialist Cuba. It returns Cuba to the U.S. list of State Sponsors of Terrorism, from which the island nation was removed as part of the reworking of U.S.-Cuban relations which began in December of 2014.

Trump Must Go Now! Out with the Whole Fascist Cabal!

13/01/202113/01/2021 adminDonald Trump, USA

Last Wednesday, the world witnessed with shock: MAGA mobs storming the U.S. Capitol, climbing the walls, smashing windows, rampaging through the halls and looting Congressional offices—called forth and unleashed by Donald Trump, who could be called the wannabe second president of the Confederacy. Even AFTER this violent siege, 8 GOP senators and 139 representatives (that’s 2/3 of the Republifascists in the House of Representatives) still voted to overturn the election. A new poll yesterday showed that 77% of Republicans still support Trump.

Statement of the World Peace Council on the latest decision of the US State Department about Cuba

12/01/202112/01/2021 adminCuba, USA, World Peace Council

The World Peace Council (WPC) condemns and rejects in the strongest way the recent decision of the US State Department to include once more Cuba in their unilateral list of states which sponsor terrorism. This cynical and hypocritical action of the US administration is aiming in the imposition of new coercive measures against a people and country which defends since 62 years its right to determine their future.

Saturday Nationwide Protests: Now is the Time to Act – TRUMP/PENCE OUT NOW!

08/01/202109/01/2021 adminCapitol, Donald Trump, USA

On Wednesday, January 6th, we saw President Trump call forth and unleash fascist mobs to storm the U.S. Capitol. This was an attempt at a coup. It did not succeed this time, but the danger from even a failed coup is to be taken seriously, setting the stage for them to come back sooner or later to re-seize power – with or without Trump. It leaves a bloc of elected officials who view and act as if the Biden administration is illegitimate and an armed street-fighting force “on call” to…

This mob, consisting of supporters of failed movements, such as the Confederacy, South Vietnam, and other anti-communist reactionaries, came together to support this anti-democratic, fascistic goal to install a reactionary dictatorship.
