Amtrak is the US government railroads transportation system. It was already in the hands of the state.
Years ago most “public” transportation was done by trains
https://en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Across_the_United_States_by_train
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nz9I-Px67rA. Back to the 1800 with more modern trains
Pure ignorance or opportunism. Going back to the old days of Roosevelt’s new deal who also expropriated several capitalist properties into the hands of the state, and shared ownership with several corporations.
The state is becoming a corporation able to run business to produce profits. Nothing different to Soviet and Chinese state capitalism.
They run a campaign against the so called big government, but they are increasing the size of the state apparatus, it shows that the state must always participate in the economic affairs of the society
They are taking over the control of Washington DC railroad stations which means that they are taking possession of the system of “public” transportation, another state capitalist measure, it was also done by Domingo Peron in Argentina.
They are going to continue expropriating many economic sectors, voters have been fooled again. That is what some media reporters call corporate/ welfare socialism
Chickens are coming home to roost

The War department of the Department of war was the original name for several decades and the person in charge was the Secretary of war
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Department_of_War. No more secretary of the defense, now it is going to be the secretary of the offensive. The Secretary of war negotiating a peace agreement might sound contradictory . The war budget is one trillion.
He is doing the same thing of the Spaniards, when they arrived to the Americas, they changed the names to everything that had already being named, the name of North America was the turtle island and The Americas was Abya Yala, and the South West was called Aztlan
He should call the White House the black house because it was built by black slaves

Trump cannot deliver lasting peace in Ukraine
They want to dissolve NATO or leave it, and to run the show by themselves, to take the natural resources of Ukraine or share temporarily it with Russia, like Roosevelt, Churchill and Stalin did on the Postdam treaty after World War 2, and two factions took over the whole world and the fight continued
On his first term he said that NATO was only needed in order to confront the Soviet Union and the Warsaw Pact, although the Soviet Union pact was formed as a response to NATO and the militarization of Europe and Germany by the Western Powers and the USA, and then he said that he wanted them to pay more by buying USA weapons
Donald Trump is a very unstable political leader, he always changes his mind, he is a business man, he is not a politician, the real politician is Joe Biden who has been a politician for almost 50 years, and he is like a chameleon, he adapts himself to any situation and he is more diplomatic, they placed him next to Barrack Obama because he had more experiences.
The main source of Russian income is oil and weapons manufacturing ( specially oil ) and they continue doing that with others countries like China, India and Latin America, therefore those sanctions are not going to affect them, at the present time BRICS has control of the biggest world population and the biggest world market and the USA can not control them
The US Congress can pass any act or any law and he will violate it, that is toilet paper for him, he is a typical capitalist who just want to produce profits at all cost . Later on he will change his stand regarding Russia peace agreement and ceasefire
That is the problem of following leaders like sheep, they can not change anything to please the working class, they are changed by the market system and the logic of capitalism, but the majority of the workers do not see that, they think that capitalist leaders are going to resolve their problems and like a pendulum they oscillate from left or right or viceversa.
The left wingers do not understand that either because they are leaders followers too, and they think that their leaders will do a much better job, and both sides are the same, they are irrelevant, they are two wings of the same bird known as capitalism, and in the case of Ukraine/Russia they do not understand that this an inter class conflict, one group support the Ukrainian leaders and another group support the Russian leaders and for them Putin is a working class leader fighting against fascism, the same old stalinist/ troskyist stand.
In the website and forum of RT ( formerly Russia Today ) they are insulting each others without any political substance, they are unprincipled, empty suits, propagating many conspiracies theories.
Only a class consciousness working class can resolve all world conflicts, but sadly the working class is not ready yet
Ironically, now the real warmongers are the Democrats leaders and the European leaders. Donald Trump wants to sign a peace agreement with the Russians in order to split among them the natural resources of Ukraine.
We know that peace agreements and ceasefire among the capitalists can be violated, and they have done that all the time
The Russians already have the best part of Ukraine, and they have Crimea which gives them access to the seas for their naval fleet.
The Russians do not want NATO to be their closer neighbor either, trying to weaken Russian did not work out and trying to bring Russia to their sphere of influences did not work either.
The BRICS conglomerate is getting stronger and getting more members and Russia and China are part of that commercial cartel
Roosevelt New Deal was state capitalism, and during the war he expropriated/leased lands, farms, factories, yachts and boats

Divisions between NATO and the USA
Crisis summit at White House over Ukraine war riven by divisions
Be prepared to see the chucking of Friday’s “satisfactory” meeting with Putin. Zelensky is all smiles. Back to square one by the end of this week!

The dead to the grave and the living to the bun. We should not drop any blood for the capitalist class————————————————————–
Trump seems to be saying that it was NATO’s bid to expand eastwards right up the Russian border by incorporating Ukraine that provoked the Russian invasion as the rulers of the Russian state regarded this as an existential threat.At least that is how his statement that the war would never have happened if he had been President on 2023 can be interpreted. In other words, he would have backed down in the face of Russian opposition and not insisted on Ukraine joining NATO.
Whether he would have done at the time is another matter. In any event, he is now saying that Ukraine shouldn’t join NATO, which is a shift from the position the rulers of the US took at the time. This could also be interpreted as admission by the US of the failure of its previous policy.
——————————————————————–
Donald Trump has also said that the US has had many unnecessary and unjust wars, but it is very had to believe or follow his statement because his flip flop from side to another side, from one stand to another stand.He promised to end all wars ( which can not be done by a president, only to control arm supplies ) but he continued the war in the Middle East, and he has continued certain policies established by Joe Biden . He knows that the USA has lost this war .
There was an America presidential candidate who wants to be friendly with the Soviet Union and avoid the proliferation of atomic weapons and he lost the nomination and a warmonger became president

The Trump-Putin summit in Alaska and the shift in American geostrategy
A calculated move made by Putin and Trump, each one is defending the interests of their own ruling class there is nothing about treason as some democratic leaders are shouting, they will do the same thing that was done during WW 2, they will split among each others the resources of Ukraine. Thousands of poor peoples from both sides have died and the spoils of wars will be collected by the capitalist class
No deal in Alaska between Putin and Trump. On his campaign said that he was going to find a deal within 24 hours by just making a phone call. It is not the same thing to make a deal with the small island of Saint Thomas, or Grenada than to make a deal with the Russian or Chinese empire
That conspiracy theory has been spread thru the third world countries ( Global South ) including Latin America, ironically, there are some Trotskyists and Leninist groups who also support that theory instead of supporting the socialist logic.
In regard to the backing of Israel to Russia, it is not new that capitalists have made temporary alliances in order to advance their own geopolitical interests, the western powers and the soviets made temporary alliance with the Nazis, the fascists, and the soviets, and then they became enemies.
The question is what are going to say those groups who support Russia against Ukraine, or vice versa, and the groups that support Iran against Israel ? That is the importance of taking an independent socialist stand
Both sectors of the US capitalist class have used the concept of the ‘Deep State” for their world hegemonic purposes, and at the present time the US ruling class does want not to lose completely its world hegemony which is being challenged by chinese capitalism.
These conspiracy theories are used in order to hide the struggles between capitalist groups, national and international fighting for their own class interests, and many workers without the proper political and economic orientation follow them. The capitalist class is not a secret family, shadow groups or secretive groups

The Qanon groups have also created false conspiracy theories ( which include religious beliefs ) that had been used by both sides
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QAnonIt looks like the Deep State is not secret any more because in the USA Donald Trump government has control over the Department of Justice, the Secret Service, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Military Apparatus and they have dismantled several governments agencies,
It is widely known who controls the world: The capitalist class and the market system. It is also widely known that the USA has lost the war in Ukraine in the same way that they lost the war in Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan
The conspiracy theory of the the Deep State which has been completely debunked is older than the one that was emitted in Turkey in 1990, it started in 1960 with a book titled the Invisible governent.
As an article published by the Socialist party says that conspiracy theory are easier for many peoples because they have been created already and there is not need to use any independent thinking or logic, and there is not need to do any profound research to find the real truth
https://www.worldsocialism.org/spgb/socialist-standard/2010s/2018/no-1370-october-2018/conspiracy-theory-vs-socialist-logic/. The New York Towers as the SPGB wrote, It was terrorism vs terrorism
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_state_conspiracy_theory_in_the_United_States
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Invisible_Government.
This concept also served as the basis to write many conspiracy theory about John F Kennedy assassination, that he tried to dissolve the invisible government and the CIA, and it was the opposite, he did expand the secret service and he promoted many coup d’tats in several countries, and asked several dictators placed by the USA, to resign or to be killed.
As the SOYMB said: He was the real conspiracy, his national and international mission was to defend and protect the interest of the US ruling class
Putin is serving the geopolitical interest of the Russian ruling class, as well Israel is serving the interest of its own ruling class and the USA, and Israel is not controlling the USA or Russia, it is pure nonsenses
Why the USA government is not running the money printing machine ? They are looking for one trillion dollars in T bill to compensate for the downfall in taxation from the capitalist class
