Lula Wins in Brazil, but the Far Right Won’t Back Down

By Geraldina Colotti https://resumen-english.org/2026/10/lula-wins-in-brazil-but-the-far-right-wont-back-down/ Brazil held its ground, one of the last bulwarks against the advance of the far right in Latin America. The veteran Lula pulled it off, winning the runoff with 64,256,232 votes against the 59,826,041 cast for the far right, represented by Flávio Bolsonaro: 51.79% versus 48.21%. It was a hard-fought victory contested down to the last vote, achieved at the end of a toxic election campaign that saw [...]

The Only Kill Switch We Need

Inside Labor's AI Data Center Split by Ginny Hogan [Excerpts] https://www.laborpolitics.com/p/the-only-kill-switch-weve-got Several weeks ago, Jason Kelce (football player, podcaster, Taylor Swift’s brother-in-law) starred in an ad asking Americans to pee in jars and send them to their nearest AI data center. The spot – a collaboration between Liquid Death and Kelce’s own Garage Beer – was nominally about water consumption. Mostly, though, it was evidence that hating on data centers has gone [...]

Protect Workers from Extreme Heat

But while workers continue to face dangerous and potentially deadly working conditions, anti-worker leaders in Congress are quietly attempting to stop any heat safety protection laws from being passed, now or in the future.

Giant Georgia data center secretly used 29 million gallons of water; avoids fine

https://www.tomshardware.com/tech-industry/georgia-data-center-used-29-million-gallons-of-water by Luke James An AI data center project secretly sucked 29 million gallons of water over 15 months before detected by residents complaining about low water pressure — officials refuse to fine builders of massive 6.2 million-square-foot facility over unauthorized water use. County's soft touch is attributed to the data center being 'our largest customer, and we have to be partners.' Fayette County, Georgia, was telling residents to stop watering their [...]

San Gabriel Valley Residents Unite Against Data Centers – Rally May 2

Last month, a proposed massive A-I data center in Monterey Park was scuttled after united community opposition in the San Gabriel Valley, particularly by immigrant residents in some of the unincorporated areas. The Monterey Park City Council approved a ballot measure for submission to voters in June that would ban data centers in the city. But the issue is still a live one in many other area cities. The City of Vernon [...]

May 1 International Workers’ Day General Strike

by Michael Novick, Anti-Racist Action-Los Angeles/People Against Racist Terror, https://antiracist.org May Day, the celebration of International Working People's Day on May 1, arose out of labor struggles in the United States (as did International Women's Day on March 8).

COP30 Flames Out on Fossil Fuel Phase-out

by the Center for Biological Diversity The COP30 UN climate summit ended in Belém, Brazil with the establishment of a first-ever "just transition" mechanism for workers, Indigenous peoples and frontline communities transitioning to renewable energy economies. But the agreement lacks vital funding commitments from wealthy countries to the Global South for climate adaptation. The final agreement, which came two days after a fire at the summit venue, failed to include a roadmap [...]
