Trump Faces Impeachment Once Again

As is well known, Donald Trump was twice impeached, during his first term as President. That just means that the House of Representatives, by a simple majority vote, charged him with certain crimes, referred to as ‘’impeachable offences’’. Then, following Constitutional law, he was placed on trial, by the Senate. 

Of course, in each case, he was found not guilty, as it requires a two thirds vote, of the Senators, meaning that sixty seven Senators had to vote guilty, in order to secure a conviction. As the Senate, at that time, was controlled by the Republican Party, that conviction never happened. 

Yet now, in his second term as President, the Senate is still controlled by the Republican Party. So how is it that the House of Representatives is so confident of securing a conviction, to their current proposed impeachment charges?

Because the political situation has changed, and quite dramatically. The country is in the early stages of a Revolution, the Second American Revolution. The No Kings Protest, of October 18, 2025, marked the beginning of this Revolution. After all, an estimated seven million people ‘’took to the streets’’, and no one was arrested! That just means that the local police have joined the Revolution.

This is not to say that the Members of Congress, either of the House of Representatives or of the Senate, understand this. For that matter, the finest of the bourgeois intellectuals do not understand this. Yet they are aware of the ‘’mass movement’’, aware that ‘’something has changed’’, aware that the ‘’common people’’ are not at all happy. That is most emphatically true!

There is one very instructive video, on the internet, which illustrates this, quite clearly. It is titled, ‘’Congress Demands Trump Step Down As Mark Meadows Reveals Everything’’.

For the benefit of those who are not aware, Mark Meadows was formerly Trump’s Chief of Staff. He just provided documents that allegedly prove that Trump tried to overturn the 2020 Presidential Election. It is further alleged that he was responsible for the ‘’Insurrection of January 6’’. A most serious charge.

In the video, the narrator, one of the finest of the bourgeois intellectuals, alleges that these documents provide ‘’Documentary proof of the most serious attack on American democracy, since the Civil War…Congressional leaders, from both parties, are….demanding immediate action….Democrats are calling for Trump’s immediate resignation, warning that if he does not step down voluntarily, they will pursue impeachment with the full expectation of conviction this time, given the overwhelming evidence now available. Some Republican Members are joining these calls, breaking with their Party leader….Others are threatening invocation of the Twenty Fifth Amendment, …Genuine Constitutional Crisis, …Governors of various states are joining in….’’

The reason I say that this is an instructive video, is because the narrator accurately described the current situation. Yet even though he could have said that in two minutes, he babbled for almost twenty minutes. He kept repeating himself, as well as pointing out the implications for the forthcoming midterm elections, the next presidential election, and so on and so forth. He is clearly in love with the sound of his own voice! And this from one of the finest of the bourgeois intellectuals!

Sadly, even he is not capable of facing the fact that the Second American Revolution has just begun. But then, there are very few ‘’bourgeois ideologists who are capable of raising themselves to the level of comprehending theoretically, the historical movement as a whole’’, according to the Communist Manifesto.

It is best to not expect too much from bourgeois intellectuals. Even though, as an American, he is supremely well aware of the first American Revolution of 1776, he cannot bring himself to face the fact that the Second American Revolution has just broken out. Yet, even though he and others, cannot understand this, the Revolution is making itself felt. 

The Republicans are afraid that the surprising resignation of Marjorie Taylor Green, MTG, is just the beginning. The Leftist press is reporting that numerous other Republican Members of Congress are considering retirement. It is also very likely that Democratic Members may join them. After all, they may be able to sense, if not understand, that ‘’the ship is sinking’’. Now is the time to ‘’jump ship’’, while the ‘’jumping is still good’’, if you will excuse the poor metaphor. 

As for a possible trial by the Senate, Trump is doing his best to antagonize the Senators. His latest brain storm is to call Senator Mark Kelly, a former astronaut, back to active duty service, so that he can be court martialled! Trump is upset that Kelly advised military personnel that it is their duty to disobey illegal orders. Their oath is to the Constitution, not to Trump! As far as Trump is concerned, that advice amounts to sedition! Trump is calling for the murder of Kelly and several others! All Members of Congress! 

The expression, ‘’How to make friends and influence people’’, comes to mind! If Trump was deliberately trying to be impeached, and convicted by the Senate, he could not possibly do a finer job!

That is the reason I think that, for once, the ‘’third time is a charm’’. The third impeachment of Trump, if it happens, could result in his conviction and removal from office. 

Yet I am also of the opinion that the Second American Revolution, as it unfolds, may well make that impeachment completely irrelevant.

NYC Mayor Elect Mamdani Meets With Trump

New York City Mayor Elect Zohran Mamdani recently met with President Donald Trump, in the White House. This is significant, if for no other reason than the fact that Mamdani claims to be a Socialist. In fact, he is a Member of the Democratic Socialists of America, and in running as a Socialist, he ‘’won in a landslide’’. It is entirely possible, that the main reason for his ‘’landslide victory’’, was the fact that he ran as a Socialist. 

During the time that Mamdani was running for that office, over a period of several months, he and Trump were constantly ‘’slinging mud at each other’’, as one of the journalists so accurately phrased it. In fact, Trump referred to Mamdani as a ‘’Communist, lunatic nut job’’. In response, Mamdani referred to Trump as a ‘’fascist’’, among other things. He was especially critical of the ICE immigration raids, ordered by Trump, as well as ‘’inflation and corruption’’.

But now that he has won the election, and is officially the Mayor Elect of NYC, he has promptly ‘’changed his tune’’. In fact, he made a ‘’complete reversal’’. His meeting with Trump, in the White House, was completely cordial. Insults were traded for compliments. There were hand shakes, smiles and jokes. As Trump put it, ‘’We agree on more than I would have thought’’. He is now ‘’cheering’’ for the new Mayor Elect, one whom he once warned would ‘’Destroy New York City’’.

This begs the question: What the blue blazes is going on? First, Trump reverses himself, concerning the release of the Epstein Files. Then Marjorie Taylor Green, MTG, one of the strongest supporters of Trump, turns against him. And now, Zohran Mamdani, the Mayor Elect of NYC, a Member of the Democratic Socialists of America, and one of the harshest critics of Trump, is his new best friend!

The ‘’short answer’’ is that this is all happening, as a result of the Second American Revolution, currently sweeping the country. The ‘’long answer’’ is a bit more complex, and calls for a little explanation. It is also very important.

As a result of the Revolution, or the revolutionary movement, if you prefer, the common people, by whom I of course mean the workers, the proletariat, and family farmers, are rather spontaneously gravitating towards Socialism. After all, aside from anarchy, there is really no other alternative to capitalism. 

Those of us who believe in God, refer to this mass movement as an Act of God. Others- most notably atheists- may refer to this as an Act of a Higher Power, HP. Feel free to call it what you will.

The DSA is now deeply divided. There is a fine article, posted on the internet, which makes this quite clear. It is titled, ‘’DSA civil war brewing as Zohran Mamdani opposes members bid to topple House Minority Leader Hakim Jeffries’’.

The ‘’bone of contention’’, between Mamdani and fellow DSA Member, as well as City Council Member, Chi Osse, is the fact that Osse is determined to oust Democratic House Minority Leader, Hakim Jeffries. Osse calls Jeffries an ‘’enemy of the Socialist movement and the broader Left’’. So why would a fellow Democratic Socialist be opposed to this noble objective?

Possibly because Mamdani is a Socialist in name only! His meeting with Trump, supports this statement. While running for the office of Mayor of NYC, and posing as a Socialist, he made the appropriate speeches, as is expected of a Socialist. But then, once he won that election, he ‘’showed his true colours’’. He is a Socialist in name only! Best buddies with Trump! Two of a kind! Completely devoid of principle! Say what you have to say, in order to get elected! One is every bit as hypocritical as the other! They perfectly understand each other!

Now that Mamdani has won the election, he is making every effort to ‘’maintain the status quo’’. Do not ‘’rock the boat’’! Keep everything exactly the way it is! ‘’Sucking up’’ to the multi billionaires!

Yet the fact remains that this split, within the DSA, provides us with an opportunity to high light the differences between the DSA, those who are Utopian Socialists, and those of us who are Scientific Socialists, Communists, true Marxists. 

This difference is of the utmost importance, as the common people are spontaneously gravitating towards Socialism, and the DSA is the most visible Socialist organization. It is only natural that workers should think that they offer an alternative to monopoly capitalism, technically referred to as imperialism. Except that they do not!

This is made clear on their web site, which I have reproduced: 

‘’Who we are

‘’The Democratic Socialists of America is the largest socialist organization in the United States, with over 80,000 members and chapters in all 50 states. We believe that working people should run both the economy and society democratically to meet human needs, not to make profits for a few.

‘’What we do

‘’We are a political and activist organization, not a party; through campus and community-based chapters, DSA members use a variety of tactics, from legislative to direct action, to fight for reforms that empower working people.’’

From this, it is clear that the DSA claims to be a Socialist organization. Bear in mind that anyone who is capable of spelling the word Socialist, can claim to be Socialist. It is also clear, because they state it, that they are determined to ‘’fight for reforms’’. That is a far cry from fighting for Socialism! Perhaps a more accurate name for that organization, is that of the Democratic Reformers of America.

By contrast, those of us who are Scientific Socialists, Communists, are just that -Scientific Socialists. We are the followers of Marx and Lenin, two scientists who placed Socialism on a Scientific basis! It was Karl Marx who first conducted a scientific examination of capitalism, and proved, that it would, of necessity, give birth to socialism!

This is the way Marx described it, in a letter to Weydemeyer, dated March 5, 1852:

‘’And now as to myself, no credit is due to me for discovering the existence of classes in modern society, nor yet the struggle between them. Long before me, bourgeois historians had described the historical development of this class struggle, and bourgeois economists the economic anatomy of the classes. What I did that was new was to prove: 1) that the existence of classes is only bound up with particular historical phases in the development of production; 2) that the class struggle necessarily leads to the Dictatorship of the Proletariat; 3) that this Dictatorship itself only constitutes the transition to the abolition of all classes and to a classless society.’’ (italics by Lenin)

This stands in stark contrast to the Utopian Socialists, including the DSA, those who think that Socialism may be a fine idea, but is ‘’simply not possible’’. The best we can hope to do, is to ‘’fight for paltry reforms’’. 

In fact, various efforts to establish a Socialist society, under capitalism, by well meaning Utopian Socialists, have all failed! It simply cannot be done! As I have documented this in a previous article, there is no need to reproduce it here. 

By contrast, we now have the experience of two- formerly- Scientific Socialist societies, that of the Soviet Union, and China. In each case, the common people, workers and family farmers, were able to over throw the capitalists, smash the existing state apparatus, which was set up to crush the common people, and set up a new state apparatus, in the form of the Dictatorship of the Proletariat. 

Yet after a number of years, the capitalists of each country were able to return to power, due to the mistakes of their leaders, Stalin in the Soviet Union, and Mao in China. Two fine Marxists, but still human, and each made a number of serious mistakes. It is our duty to learn from those mistakes, so as not to repeat them. 

As I have gone into this in a previous article, there is no need to repeat it here. I merely mention it, in order to emphasize the differences between Scientific Socialists, and Utopian Socialists. It would never occur to Utopian Socialists, the thought would never cross their minds, of learning from previous revolutionary experience! 

Now it is vitally important to distinguish ourselves, true Scientific Socialists, Communists, those who openly call for the Dictatorship of the Proletariat, from the Utopian Socialists, especially the DSA. The most advanced members of the proletariat must be made aware of the fact that the existing state apparatus must be smashed, at the time of the insurrection, and replaced with the Dictatorship of the Proletariat. The resistance of the bourgeoisie will  increase ten fold, after the Revolution, after they are deprived of their wealth and power. We must be prepared! We must not repeat the mistakes of the Russian Communists, or of the Chinese Communists.

Trump ‘’Crosses the Line’’, Accuses Democrats of Sedition

Recently, a group of six lawmakers, all members of the Democratic Party, all veterans of the military or Intelligence services, each a Member of the House of Representatives or of the Senate, came together to make a statement, in the form of a video. It is clear that this video was produced, at least in part, as a response to the military attacks, ordered by President Trump, in the Caribbean, on boats which Trump says were carrying illegal drugs, to America. As well, he has also been deploying National Guard troops to various American cities, in defiance of federal laws.

This video has created an immediate sensation. I have chosen to transcribe the pertinent parts:

‘’We want to speak directly to members of the military, and the Intelligence community, who take risks each day to keep Americans safe. We know you are under enormous stress and pressure right now. Americans trust their military. But that trust is at risk. To protect and defend this Constitution, right now. The threats to our Constitution aren’t just coming from abroad, but from right here at home. Our laws are clear. YOU CAN REFUSE ILLEGAL ORDERS. YOU CAN REFUSE ILLEGAL ORDERS. YOU MUST REFUSE ILLEGAL ORDERS 

‘’No one has to carry out orders that violate the law, or our Constitution. We know this is hard’’ (repetition and capitalization as per the video)

The response of President Trump was immediate, and unequivocal. It left no room for any misunderstanding:

‘’This is really bad, and Dangerous to our Country. Their words cannot be allowed to stand. SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOUR FROM TRAITORS. LOCK THEM UP??? President DJT. SEDITIOUS  BEHAVIOUR, punishable by DEATH! (punctuation and capitalization as per the video)

Here we have the President of the United States, the Commander In Chief of the whole American military, a man who managed to avoid the military draft of the nineteen sixties, due to alleged ‘’bone spurs’’, calling veterans, Members of Congress, traitors, guilty of sedition, and calling for them to be put to death!

Several highly respected politicians responded to this. I have chosen to give the answers of a couple of them:

California governor, Gavin Newsom: ‘’The President of the United States of America just called for the death of Democratic lawmakers. This man is sick in the head.’’

Governor Newsom was rather kind, allowing for the possibility that Trump is mentally ill. The alternative is that he is nothing other than a raging psychopath. 

Senator Chuck Shumer was more direct, pointing out the danger of the accusation:

 ‘’When Donald Trump uses the language of execution and treason, some of his supporters may very well listen. He is lighting a match, in a country soaked with political gasoline.’’

It is entirely possible that some of the most devoted followers of Trump, may take this video as an invitation to commit murder! Of democratically elected politicians! In the interests of patriotism! Of cleansing the government of those who are guilty of sedition!

There are numerous other videos, on the internet, concerning that subject. One of the finest videos, which illustrates the breadth and depth of the revolutionary motion, is titled: ‘’Lying through their teeth: Speaker Johnson, Press Secretary know better’’

I have chosen to transcribe select parts of the video, those which are relevant. 

Narrator: ‘’Those who have never served in the military, attacking men and women who have served in Iraq, who have served in Afghanistan, that have lost friends in fighting, that served this country proudly. Saying what they all know, you cannot follow illegal orders!’’

Right to the heart of the matter! Members of the military who target civilians, or abuse prisoners of war, for example, can be charged with various crimes. These can include ‘’crimes against humanity’’, or ‘’war crimes’’, among other things. Even if they were ordered to do so! ‘’Just following orders’’, is not a valid defence! Military personnel have the right, or more accurately the duty, to disobey any and all illegal orders!

The narrator than went on to explain the reason Trump has posted this garbage:

‘’Everybody is talking about Epstein, and record low poll numbers, and all he has to do is go on Truth Social, and just say kill Senators. …You cannot ignore it, …they should be hung, sedition…and boom!- you don’t hear about Epstein, affordability, can’t afford housing or health care insurance, groceries, cannot afford to live, or cars….’’

In an attempt to divert the revolutionary motion, to distract the common people, from the Epstein Scandal, of the part Trump played in the exploitation, the rape of possibly one thousand underage girls, Trump is stooping to the level of calling for the murder of Members of Congress!

The narrator then goes into the response of the supporters of Trump, and the tricks they are using:

‘’Republican critics are leaving out the word illegal… Speaker Mike Johnson said Democrats are encouraging troops to disobey orders…not true…They are literally saying just the opposite of what is true, they are lying to the American people… the White House is saying you do not have to uphold your oath …and lying about the Senators who are saying you have to uphold your oath….White House spokesman says that to defy Trump, is to betray their oath of office…Johnson accuses them of saying that it is  ‘wildly inappropriate…to encourage young troops to disobey orders…These people are lying through their teeth…this is all about what military personnel need to do to uphold their sacred oath not to commit illegal actions…’’

Although the preceding was somewhat disjointed, the point they made was valid. The Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, as well as the White House Press Secretary, are indeed ‘’lying through their teeth’’! The video, which those six politicians made, is calling for all military personnel, to ‘’uphold their sacred oath’’, that of ‘’preserve, protect and defend the Constitution’’. At no point does any American military person, take an oath of allegiance to Trump, or anyone else!

The narrator went on to give an example of a high ranking Admiral, who resigned in protest, due to the boat strikes, which resulted in the death of numerous civilians. This was followed by an interview with a highly respected, retired General: 

‘’No one in the American military swear allegiance to any individual. The oaths are not pledges of loyalty to a party, a personality or a political movement. Loyalty is pledged to the Constitution!’’ 

Well spoken! To drive home the point that the Trump administration is indeed, ‘’lying through their teeth’’, I have chosen to give the response of the White House Press Secretary:

‘’You have sitting members, of the United States Congress, who conspired together, to orchestrate a video, messaged to members of the United States military, to active duty service members, to members of the national security apparatus, encouraging them to defy the president’s lawful orders.’’

An outright lie! Precisely the opposite is true! These Members of Congress are encouraging military personnel to defy the presidents unlawful orders!

All of this may comes as a surprise to a great many people. Perhaps even more surprising, it was predicted by Marx and Engels, in the Communist Manifesto:

‘’Finally, in times when the class struggle nears the decisive hour, the process of dissolution going on within the ruling class, in fact within the whole range of old society, assumes such a violent, glaring character, that a small section of the ruling class cuts itself adrift, and joins the revolutionary class, the class that holds the future in its hands. Just as, therefore, at an earlier period, a section of the nobility went over to the bourgeoisie, so now a portion of the bourgeoisie goes over to the proletariat, and in particular, a portion of the bourgeois ideologists, who have raised themselves to the level of comprehending theoretically the historical movement as a whole.’’

That which we are now experiencing, is merely an indication of the ‘’process of dissolution going on within the ruling class’’. Very soon, we can expect a ‘’small section of the ruling class’’, that of the bourgeoisie, to ‘’cut itself adrift’’, and join the ‘’revolutionary class’’, the proletariat. Further, this ‘’small section’’ will include the bourgeois ideologists, but only those who are capable of ‘’raising themselves theoretically to the level of comprehending the historical movement as a whole’’. 

Those who are not capable of ‘’raising themselves theoretically’’, will become targets of this, the Second American Revolution, and suffer a fate similar to the Tories, their counterparts of the First American Revolution. Their choice.

Concerning the minority of bourgeois ideologists, who are about to join the revolutionary proletariat, may I suggest that it is absolutely necessary to raise the level of awareness of the working class. The best way to do this is by becoming involved in that which most interests those workers. As ‘’defending the Constitution’’ is such a ‘’hot topic’’, feel free to ‘’jump on the bandwagon’’. 

The hypocrisy of all elected officials, who ‘’pay lip service’’ to defending the Constitution, can best be exposed by challenging the results of the 2024 Presidential Election, on the grounds that it was fraudulent, as it did not follow the procedure laid out in Twelfth Amendment to the Constitution.  

 As that Amendment is so important, I have reproduced it here, in its entirety:

‘’The Electors shall meet in their respective states and vote by ballot for President and Vice- President, one of whom, at least, shall not be an inhabitant of the same state with themselves; they shall name in their ballots the person voted for as President, and in distinct ballots the person voted for as as Vice- President, and they shall make distinct lists of all persons voted for as Vice- President, and of the number of votes for each, which lists they shall sign and certify, and transmit sealed to the seat of the government of the United States, directed to the President of the Senate; the President of the Senate shall, in the presence of the Senate and House of Representatives, open all the certificates and the votes shall then be counted; the person having the greatest number of votes for President, shall be the President, if such a number be a majority of the whole number of Electors appointed; and if no person have such a majority, then from the persons having the highest numbers not exceeding three on the list of those voted for as President, the House of Representatives shall choose immediately, by ballot, the President. But in choosing the President, the votes shall be taken by states, the representation from each state having one vote; a quorum for this purpose shall consist of a member or members from two-thirds of the states, and a majority of all the states shall be necessary to a choice. And if the House of Representatives shall not choose a President whenever the right of choice shall devolve upon them, before the fourth day of March next following, then the Vice -President shall act as President, as in case of the death or other constitutional disability of the President. The person having the greatest number of votes as Vice- President, shall be the Vice -President, if such a number be a majority of the whole number of Electors appointed, and if no person have a majority, then from the two highest numbers on the list, the Senate shall choose the Vive -President; a quorum for the purpose shall consist of two-thirds of the whole number of Senators, and a majority of the whole number shall be necessary to a choice. But no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be elegable to that of Vice President of he United States.’’

Incidentally, on March 20, 1961, the Twenty Third Amendment to the Constitution was ratified. It grants residents of the District of Columbia electoral votes. 

As all Americans are well aware, this procedure was not followed, in the 2024 federal election. For that reason, it can be argued, before the Supreme Court, by an attorney, an expert on Constitutional law, that the 2024 federal election was fraudulent! Donald Trump is a fraudulent President, and JD Vance is a fraudulent Vice President!

The arguments can be made, before the Supreme Court, that in the Constitution, there is no mention of any popular vote; no mention of any political party; that the states have no right to meddle in a federal election; that all state laws requiring Electors to vote for certain candidates is Unconstitutional. 

Bear in mind that the main purpose of this proposed challenge to the 2024 Presidential Election, is to raise the level of awareness of the working class, to expose the hypocrisy of the bourgeoisie. Any possible ruling, by the Supreme Court, to the effect of removing Trump from office, is merely a bonus. 

As for those who object, quite reasonably, that the Twelfth Amendment, is a remnant of slavery, and should be abolished, I can only respond that you are absolutely correct. It was signed into law in 1804, with a view to giving more political power, to slave owners. It established the Electoral College, the number of Electors from each state based on the population of that state. Further, sixty percent of the slaves, of each slave holding state, were considered to be people, for the purposes of determining the number of Electors, for that particular state. All the more reason for the slave owners to own as many slaves as possible!

That in no way changes the fact that the Twelfth Amendment is still the ‘’law of the land’’! It has yet to be abolished!

Now that we have the experience of several revolutions, ‘’under our belts’’, we would be fools to not learn from that experience. And in fact, Lenin summed up that experience in Left Wing Communism, An Infantile Disorder:

‘’The fundamental law of revolution, which has been confirmed by all revolutions, and especially by all three Russian revolutions in the twentieth century, is as follows: for a revolution to take place, it is not enough for the exploited and oppressed masses to realize the impossibility of living in the old way, and demand changes; for a revolution to take place, it is essential that the exploiters should not be able to live and rule in the old way. It is only when the ‘lower classes’ do not want to live in the old way, and the ‘upper classes’ cannot carry on in the old way, that the revolution can triumph. This truth can be expressed in other words: revolution is impossible without a nation wide crisis (affecting both the exploiters and the exploited). It follows that, for a revolution to take place, it is essential first, that a majority of the workers (or at least a majority of the class conscious, thinking, and politically active workers), should fully realize that revolution is necessary, and that they should be prepared to die for it; second, that the ruling classes should be going through a governmental crisis, which draws even the most backward masses into politics (symptomatic of any genuine revolution is a rapid, tenfold and even hundredfold increase in the size of the working and oppressed masses- hitherto apathetic- who are capable of waging the political struggle), weakens the government, and makes it possible for the revolutionaries to rapidly overthrow it.’’ (italics by Lenin)

In conclusion, we can say that this ‘’popular uprising’’, of the working class, in response to the Epstein Scandal, that which I consider to be nothing other than the beginning of the Second American Revolution, is proof that the ‘’lower classes’’, the workers and family farmers, are no longer prepared to ‘’live in the old way’’. They are demanding changes. 

Further, the fact is that various members and supporters of the ruling class of multi billionaires, the bourgeoisie, have now come out openly, in opposition to President Trump and his policies. These policies include military strikes on civilians, as well as calling for the murder of democratically elected Members of Congress. Clearly, the bourgeoisie can no longer rule in the old way. 

The Epstein Scandal has indeed created a ‘’governmental crisis’’, so that even the ‘’most backward masses’’- I much prefer the term less advanced- are now involved in politics! Now it is a matter of raising the level of awareness of the most advanced workers, to the point that they are class conscious, aware of the revolutionary theories of Marx and Lenin, true Communists! 

As a ‘’portion of the bourgeois intellectuals’’, break away and join the revolutionary class of proletarians, feel free to focus on raising the level of awareness of the most advanced workers. In this way, and only in this way, can this, the Second American Revolution, be successful.

Trump Calls For Release of Epstein Files

November 18, 2025. Could it be that an arctic front has just passed through the ‘’nether regions’’? Is it possible that hell has just frozen over? Countless people have previously sworn that ‘’Hell would freeze over, before Trump agrees to release the Epstein Files!’’ Yet on this day, Trump has called for the release of the Epstein Files.

Further, the House of Representatives has just passed, by a nearly unanimous vote of 427 to 1, a resolution to release those same files. The mainstream press is reporting that the Senate has also just agreed to release those files, by a unanimous vote. The bill could become law as early as tomorrow, as soon as Trump signs that resolution into law. 

Not only that, but people are also wondering if their eyes are deceiving them. Is it possible that Marjorie Taylor Greene, MTG, has joined the women who have survived sexual abuse, at the hands of Jeffrey Epstein, when they were in their early teens? These women are demanding justice, which is completely reasonable, and MTG agrees with them! This woman, previously one of the most passionate, fiercest supporters of Donald Trump, is now one of his bitterest enemies. Has the world gone mad?

No, the world has not ‘’gone mad’’. And no, the age of miracles did not end with the ‘’last chapter of the bible’’. On the contrary, miracles begin with the onset of revolution! And rest assured, the Second American Revolution has just begun!

It is very likely that historians will consider the No Kings Protest, held on October 18, 2025, to be the beginning of the Second American Revolution. After all, an estimated seven million people ‘’took to the streets’’, and not one protester was arrested! Clearly, the local police have effectively joined the Revolution.

As part of the Second American Revolution, the popular demand for the release of the Epstein Files is ‘’front and centre’’. There are a great many videos, on the internet, concerning this subject. Most of them are of little value, if at all. Yet one video, in particular, is quite instructive. It is titled, ‘’Massie Drops Bombshell Warning, Release the Epstein Files Now’’.

For the benefit of those who are not aware, I should mention that Republican Representative Massie is a Member of the House of Representatives, and a ‘’thorn in the side’’ of President Trump. He is one of the few Republicans, who refuses to take orders from Trump! I should also mention that, in the following video, which I have done my best to transcribe, the term GOP is mentioned. That stands for Grand Old Party, and is a reference to the Republican Party. Also, the term MAGA stands for Make America Great Again, and is a slogan dreamed up by Trump. Now to the video:

Massie says he ‘’Demands the release of the Epstein Files now’’, or else he is prepared to ‘’Expose the client list’’, to ‘’Release the names on the Floor of the House of Representatives’’. 

This is a very serious threat, as anything a Member of the House says, while on the ‘’Floor of the House’’, cannot be held against that Member, in a court of law.

Massie went on to state that, ‘’The Epstein case has consistently been shielded by powerful forces, wealthy and influential men have been protected, victims have been denied justice, and that the system has done everything in its power to bury the truth.’’ He went on to accuse Speaker of the House Johnson, of ‘’Trying to protect rich men who flew on jets to the ‘rape island’’’. 

This is a reference to the private island, which Epstein owned. It is widely considered to be the main location of the wide spread rape of underage girls, although certainly not the only one.

Massie went on to accuse Johnson of ‘’Obeying Trump’’. He also made it clear that he is prepared to ‘’Read the names of the men mentioned in the Epstein Files, into the Congressional Record’’.

A narrator referred to this as the ‘’nuclear option’’, as such a Record ‘’becomes permanent’’. It ‘’cannot be redacted or erased’’. 

She went on to admit that the ‘’FBI did not act on credible information’’, that they ‘’protect the rich and powerful’’, that ‘’victims testimony has been ignored’’. She referred to this as ‘’Institutional corruption’’. 

This is correct, as far as it goes. As a well trained bourgeois intellectual, she was careful to avoid any mention of classes. Her rather delicate reference to the ‘’rich and powerful’’, is a reference to the class of monopoly capitalists, the multi billionaires, the bourgeoisie. That is the class of people which the system is set up to protect. 

She then proceeded to give a surprisingly accurate description of the current conflict, taking place within the government:

‘’The GOP is in a war with itself over this issue. Trump wants to control which names get out and which do not. The establishment wants to avoid the embarrassment of exposing donors and allies. The MAGA faction wants to weaponize the list selectively, and Democrats, sensing the hypocrisy, are demanding transparency. Massie is calling out his own party for protecting pedophiles and rapists, in not normal political rhetoric. It is a sign of internal collapse, and when he says the GOP was rising its entire majority, as it sought transparency on this issue, he is right. The Republican base overwhelmingly wants these files released, and the political cost of protecting predators would be catastrophic.’’

The preceding paragraph calls for a little explanation. True, Trump and his supporters, want to release the names- selectively- of the ‘’clients’’ of Epstein. These ‘’select’’ names are those only of Democrats, and Democratic supporters. Yet the ‘’establishment’’, by which she means the state apparatus, is determined to not ‘’embarrass’’- expose- the ‘’rich and powerful’’, the billionaire child molesters, the pedophiles. Yet to cover for them would result in a ‘’catastrophic political cost’’.

It is significant that she makes no mention of the victims, the underage girls, the children who were raped! Even though they deserve justice, and are demanding justice, she pays them no attention. As a bourgeois scholar, her only concern is with the class of people she serves, the bourgeoisie.

She then goes on to state:

‘’But here is what matters most. Massie is setting a trap for his own party and the administration. If the files do not come out, he gets to play the crusader for victims, and if they do come out, he gets to say he forced the systems hand. Either way, the pressure is now public, and in the middle of all this, victims are now closer than ever to justice. …’’

In the preceding, she seems to be implying that Massie is strictly in it for himself, unprincipled, technically referred to as an opportunist. Yet it is entirely possible that he is taking a principled stand, ‘’doing the right thing’’, in the interest of securing justice for the victims. She mentions ‘’justice for the victims’’ almost as an after thought. Or perhaps it was an after thought.

She concluded by stating:

‘’What is really at stake is power, accountability, and whether a political system built to protect the wealthy, can ever be forced to serve the vulnerable instead.’’ 

The answer is no. Most emphatically not! The ‘’political system’’, by which she means the state apparatus, has not been set up to ‘’protect the wealthy’’. It has been set up to crush the lower classes, and in particular the working class, the proletariat. Such a ‘’system’’ can never be ‘’forced to serve the vulnerable’’.

It is a fundamental tenet of Scientific Socialism, Communism, that the existing state apparatus, which has been set up, by the monopoly capitalists, in order to crush the working class, must be smashed, at the time of the Revolution, and replaced with a different state apparatus, in the form of the Dictatorship of the Proletariat. It is only under such a state of Scientific Socialism, that the ‘’vulnerable’’, in this case the children who were raped, now of course adults, can expect to receive justice. 

As the name suggests, under the Dictatorship of the Proletariat, the monopoly capitalists, the multi billionaires, will have no rights! The working class, the proletariat, will have all the rights! The -formerly- ‘’rich and powerful’’ will not be allowed to hide behind high priced lawyers. They will be forced to face their accusers!

Further, if convicted, the best these rapists and child molesters- pedophiles- can expect, is a lengthy period of incarceration, in a remote work camp. The ‘’good old days’’ of spending time in a country club of a prison, complete with free room and board, clothing, medical, dental, vision, hearing, recreation, entertainment and education, will be over! They will be forced to perform hard physical labour, for perhaps the first time in their lives. The days of rewarding criminals, while punishing the victims, will soon be a ‘’thing of the past’’!

Now that the Second American Revolution has broken out, it is ever more urgent to prepare for Scientific Socialism. The working class has to be made aware of itself as a class, with its own class interests. These class interests are in direct opposition to the class interests of the multi billionaires, the bourgeoisie. The proletariat must be made aware of the Scientific Socialist, revolutionary theories of Marx and Lenin!

Without the most advanced workers being made aware of those theories, the Revolution could be ‘’hijacked’’ by the social chauvinist, those who merely claim to be socialists. It stands the risk of those revisionists taking over the existing state apparatus, and setting themselves up, as the new rulers. Which is precisely their intention!

The only reason that Trump, as well as the Senate and House of Representatives, are now behaving in a ‘’sweetly reasonable’’ manner, is due to the revolutionary motion, the Second American Revolution, now sweeping across the country. Almost all working people are now demanding justice for the girls who were raped.

There were possibly as many as a thousand girls who were trafficked and raped, due to Epstein. It is entirely possible that many of those girls were of middle class backgrounds. If that is the case, then it is very likely that a considerable number of them have since attended Universities. That is significant, as it is only in University that people are exposed to the revolutionary theories of Marx and Lenin. 

May I suggest to such people that it is time to bring your awareness, of those revolutionary theories, to the working class. After all, it is the proletariat, and only the proletariat, which is capable of overthrowing the bourgeoisie, and establishing the Dictatorship of the Proletariat. Scientific Socialism at its finest!

As an incentive, consider all the fun you are going to have, after the Revolution, as you confront the pedophiles who assaulted you, and decide on their punishment. That is true justice!

Concerning the Process of Dissolution

In my opinion, the current situation in America, is precisely described, in the Communist Manifesto:

‘’Finally, in times when the class struggle nears the decisive hour, the process of dissolution going on within the ruling class, in fact within the whole range of old society, assumes such a violent, glaring character, that a small section of the ruling class cuts itself adrift, and joins the revolutionary class, the class that holds the future in its hands. Just as, therefore, at an earlier period, a section of the nobility went over to the bourgeoisie, so now a portion of the bourgeoisie goes over to the proletariat, and in particular, a portion of the bourgeois ideologists, who have raised themselves to the level of comprehending theoretically the historical movement as a whole.’’

As for those who are skeptical, feel free to consider the following facts: 

America has just experienced the longest government shutdown in history.

Medical insurance premiums for millions of Americans are about to ‘’go through the roof’’, so that most working class people, are about to lose their medical coverage.

The tax money saved will go towards tax cuts for the monopoly capitalists, the multi billionaires, the bourgeoisie.

The Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, used the government shutdown as an excuse to not swear in the latest Member of Congress, Arizona Democratic Representative, Adelita Grijalva, for fifty days, after she was elected.

As soon as she was sworn in, her first act was to sign the ‘’Discharge Petition’’, in an attempt to force the release of the ‘’Epstein Files’’.

All of the Democratic Members of the House, as well as four Republican Members, had earlier signed that Petition. That brought the total to 217. As there are 435 Members of Congress, her vote brought it up to the required 218 majority, in order to force a vote. 

Now Mike Johnson has agreed to call a vote next week, concerning the release of the Epstein Files.

At the moment, twenty thousand pages of documents, including countless emails from Jeffrey Epstein, from 2011 to 2119, have been released.

These emails from Epstein, mention Trump multiple times. Epstein alleges, in his emails, that ‘’Trump knew about the girls Epstein was trafficking’’, that Epstein ‘’gave one of his girlfriends to Trump’’, that ‘’Trump spent hours in Epstein’s house’’, with an ‘’underage girl’’. He also referred to Trump as a ‘’maniac with early dementia’’.

The Leftist press is reporting that Trump has ‘’descended into full panic mode’’, over the release of the twenty thousand pages of Epstein Files, as well as the threat of the release of hundreds of thousands of more documents.

Accordingly, he summoned Republican Member of Congress, Lauren Boebert, who has signed the Petition, to a meeting in the White House situation room, to ‘’discuss her demand to release the Epstein Files’’. In fact, Trump and senior officials tried to intimidate her, to force her to change her mind. It is to her credit that she stood her ground.

In a desperate attempt to get someone to swear that he was not involved with Epstein, Trump has stooped to the depth of bribing Ghislaine Maxwell, the accomplice of Epstein, an individual who is currently serving a twenty year sentence for trafficking underage girls, also convicted of perjury. Trump had her transferred to a minimum security prison, and she is being rewarded with various privileges. He will very likely issue her a pardon, in return for her assurances that Trump was not aware of the Epstein sex trafficking operation. As if anyone is about to take the word of a convicted sex offender!

If Mike Johnson keeps his word, and the vote to release the Epstein Files takes place, then at least 100 Republican Members of Congress are expected to vote to release those files. Assuming that happens, then it will have to go to the Senate. Further assuming the Senate votes on the issue, and also assuming they pass the resolution, then it has to go to Trump, and he is almost certain to veto the bill. At that point, the House and Senate can override his veto, if they so choose. That is a lot of assumes!

From a Scientific Socialist, Communist standpoint, the main point is not so much the release of the Epstein Files, as is the fact the the working class, the proletariat, is receiving an education. Their level of awareness is being raised. They are becoming more aware of themselves as a class, as opposed to the class of multi billionaires, the bourgeoisie.

In the interest of further raising their level of awareness, to the point of class consciousness, may I suggest watching a video, recently posted on the internet. Leftist journalists can learn from that video. It is titled, ‘’Capital Hill Erupts As Lawmakers Demand Trump’s Resignation Or Impeachment, Over Abuse Of Power’’. I have summarized the first eight minutes, of that video, as best I was able, as that is the significant part. 

It begins by stating that even ‘’Republican Members of Congress are calling for Trump to resign’’. This is followed by a balanced, thoughtful, accurate analysis of the current political situation, by Gavin Pierce, without resorting to vulgarity! A sin of which all too many Leftist journalists are guilty!

The reason that I so deeply disapprove of the use of vulgarity, within political videos, is because the most advanced workers also disapprove of this. In fact, when hearing such language, they frequently change the video! This defeats the purpose of the video! Bear in mind that it is the most advanced workers who lead! The less advanced workers pay strict attention to the opinion of the most advanced.

The narrator goes on to state: ‘’Capital Hill is erupting. Full blown chaos in Congress. Lawmakers, both Democrats and some Republicans, are demanding that Trump either resign or face impeachment. …This is over 120 House Members and at least seven Senators who said Trump needs to go. They are citing abuse of power, unauthorized military operations, defiance of court rulings, the ongoing government shutdown chaos, and they are saying ‘enough is enough, Trump has crossed too many lines, violated too many Constitutional norms, and he needs to be removed from office’. This is an unprecedented moment in American politics. …The stakes could not be higher. …If Congress actually moves forward with impeachment, or if enough pressure builds for Trump to resign, we are talking about a Constitutional Crisis….’’

So far so good. The preceding was an accurate description of our current situation, stated without undue emotion. This is followed by an excerpt from a separate video, which documents the fact that ‘’Trump wants to be a dictator’’. 

The narrator goes on to state that the calls for the impeachment of Trump have ‘’reached a fever pitch’’, after a ‘’series of drone strikes, that Trump allegedly ordered, without proper authorization. Violations of Constitutional limits of executive power’’. 

In an attempt to divert the revolutionary motion, of the working class, away from the Epstein Scandal, Trump has decided to go to war with Venezuela! The drone strikes, against Venezuelan ships, killing many innocent people, is just the beginning! The anticipated full blown war, if it happens, will result in death and destruction, on a vast scale. Not that Trump cares! He only cares about staying in power! Whatever it takes to maintain his continuous rule, along with his class of multi billionaires, the bourgeoisie! Nothing else matters!

This detail the narrator managed to gloss over.

He went on to state, ‘’It is like watching a slow motion train wreck. But now Congress is finally … demanding action. ..Multiple Republicans have joined Democrats in calling for Trump’s removal…Some are calling for impeachment, while others are calling for the invocation of the Twenty Fifth Amendment. …A formal impeachment resolution is on the table…seven articles of impeachment against Trump….a detailed indictment of Trump’s conduct in office….The Twenty Fifth Amendment allows the Vice President and the majority of the Cabinet to remove a President who is unable to discharge the duties of office…These calls for resignation …reflect wide spread political instability and mounting public protest. A break down in the basic functioning of government.’’

True, at the highest levels of government, officials are considering the best way to remove Trump from office, but only as a result of the revolutionary motion! They are being forced into this! The narrator does his best to also gloss over this point!

This brings us to Minute 8 of the video, and up to this point the narrator was doing reasonably well. But in the following sixteen minutes, he lost his way. He goes into the various possibilities of removing Trump from office, all within the legal bourgeois system. Yet he fails to take into account the revolutionary motion. He makes no mention of the fact that, during the recent No Kings Protest, even though an estimated seven million people protested, all across the country, no one was arrested! This is an indication that the local police have joined the Revolution! The Second American Revolution!

Almost certainly, this narrator has been to University, as he is supremely well spoken. Equally without doubt, he must be aware of the revolutionary theories of Marx and Lenin. More accurately, he has been exposed to those theories, as only the bourgeois distortion of those theories are taught in University. As well, he must believe those distortions. 

Even though the narrator is clearly an intelligent, well educated, articulate individual, he cannot face the fact that America is currently experiencing a Second American Revolution.

This is rather strange, as the United States came into existence, as the result of a Revolution! The Revolutionary War of 1776! A Revolution of which Americans are supremely proud! With good reason, I might add. So how is it that so many well educated Americans refuse to believe that it can happen again? 

The Communist Manifesto gives us the answer:  

‘’Just as, therefore, at an earlier period, a section of the nobility went over to the bourgeoisie, so now a portion of the bourgeoisie goes over to the proletariat, and in particular, a portion of the bourgeois ideologists, who have raised themselves to the level of comprehending theoretically the historical movement as a whole.’’

This narrator, one of the finest of the ‘’bourgeois ideologists’’, is not capable of ‘’raising himself to the level of comprehending theoretically the historical movement as a whole’’. He is still focused on the old, worn out, obsolete, bourgeois method of rule. He and countless others, I might add.

Yet the Second American Revolution is underway. The working class is focused on the Epstein Scandal, and the response of the monopoly capitalist class of multi billionaires, as spear headed by the Trump administration. Now it is up to Scientific Socialists, Communists, to use this Scandal to raise the level of awareness of the working class, the proletariat, or at least the most advanced workers, to the level of Conscious People, Scientific Socialists, Communists!

The working class, the proletariat, must become aware of itself as a class, with its own class interests, which are diametrically opposed to the interests of the class of monopoly capitalists, the multi billionaires, the bourgeoisie! 

The conditions of life, of the proletariat, do not lead to the awareness of itself, as a class! This class awareness must be brought to the working class, from an outside source. That outside source is middle class intellectuals! Bear in mind that both Marx and Lenin were middle class intellectuals! Their revolutionary theories must be brought to the working class! 

There is a sense of urgency to this, as the Second American Revolution is already underway. Now the revisionists, those who claim to be Scientific Socialists, Communists, but are determined to revise those revolutionary theories, are equally determined to take over the existing state apparatus, and set themselves up, as the new rulers.

It is a fundamental tenet of Scientific Socialism, that the existing state apparatus, which has been set up to crush the working class, has to be smashed, and replaced with a new state apparatus, in the form of the Dictatorship of the Proletariat! 

Rest assured, after the Revolution, after the multi billionaires are stripped of their wealth and power, they will not resign themselves to their fate! On the contrary, their rage, their hatred, their fury, will increase ten fold, to red hot levels! They will go to any length, stoop to any depth, even to the level of pretending to be dedicated Communists, in order to infiltrate the Communist Party- one of their most effective tactics!- with the goal of returning to power! 

That is precisely what happened in the two formerly Scientific Socialist republics of the Soviet Union and China. The leaders of those countries made some serious mistakes, which enabled the capitalists to return to power. This is no cause for despair on our part. As we are all human, we all make mistakes. Now it is our duty to learn from the mistakes of those great revolutionaries, so as not to repeat those same mistakes.

Time is not on our side! A full blown insurrection could break out at any time! A Revolution is similar to a volcano. It can and will explode, but only when it is good and ready! The precise time cannot be predicted.

On the other hand, the working class is now quite well cultured, so that raising their level of awareness is nowhere near as difficult as it used to be. By comparison, in Russia, in the summer of 1917, Lenin was faced with the urgent task of raising the level of awareness of the working class, in preparation for the approaching Revolution. Even though the Russian proletariat was not at all cultured, he succeeded, within a rather short time. The workers were prepared for the October Revolution of 1917.

As Lenin and the Russian Communists succeeded, under circumstances which were far more challenging than those we face today, then we too can succeed. Bear in mind that most workers have access to various digital devices, and know how to use them. That makes our task much easier.

In summary, we can say that Trump plans to set himself up as dictator, the leader of the class of multi billionaires, the bourgeoisie. The democratic republic is in the process of being dismantled. The impoverishment and suffering of the working class is about to be dramatically increased! At the same time, the Second American Revolution is now breaking out, and needs direction. The level of awareness of the working class must be raised. Preparations must be made for the Dictatorship of the Proletariat.

As I have gone into this, in detail, in numerous previous articles, there is no need to repeat it here.
