United States President Donald Trump sent the National Guard and US Marines to quell big community protests in Los Angeles, California against the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency’s forced deportations of immigrants.
LA-based socialist Thomas Malone, a member of the Democratic Socialists of America Bread and Roses Caucus and organiser with the Service Employees International Union (SEIU), has been participating in the protests and spoke to Green Left’s Isaac Nellist about the intense police repression, Trump’s anti-immigrant politics and how the movement against ICE could expand.
Malone will be speaking at an upcoming forum on the LA protests hosted by Green Left and Socialist Alliance in Naarm/Melbourne on June 24, 6pm at the Resistance Centre, Floor 5, 407 Swanston St Melbourne VIC 3000, or join online. Details at greenleft.org.au/events.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
