Kamala is Capitalism's Choice

Claudia de la Cruz, running as the Party for Socialism and Liberation’s US presidential candidate, argued at a 30 August campaign event that Kamala Harris, the Democratic Party's nominee in November's election, is capitalism's choice for the top job.

De la Cruz (@Claud9_ on X and @1claud9 on IG) cited Harris’ record as California’s attorney general, during which she is accused of fuelling mass incarceration by subverting a 2011 Supreme Court ruling requiring the state to reduce its prison population. Claudia also brings up the Biden-Harris administration's support for Israel's military onslaught on Gaza, reminding people about the $26 billion the US gave Tel Aviv in April. That's on top of an annual $3.8 billion defence aid package that renews for 10 years from 2019 through 2028, which former US President Barack Obama signed into law in 2016. US support for Israel has featured prominently in the run-up to the election, with the Democrats experiencing a deep rift within party ranks and among ordinary people who once looked at it as the party for workers.

De la Cruz’s pitch to voters is they should not surrender their awakening over Gaza's suffering to the billionaire-funded political parties, whether Democrat or Republican.
