No Tyrant Protest — London, In solidarity with the United States.

Hundreds of demonstrators gathered outside the United States Embassy in London this week as part of the global “No Kings / No Tyrants” movement, which has spread across America and beyond.

Chanting “No crowns, no thrones, no tyrants!”, protesters waved banners calling for the protection of democracy and an end to authoritarianism. The London rally, dubbed the “No Tyrant Protest,” was held in solidarity with mass demonstrations across the United States, rejecting what participants described as the rise of “strongman politics.”

Organised by local human rights and pro-democracy groups, the peaceful demonstration saw speakers denounce abuses of power and urge global vigilance against political tyranny. Outside the embassy, crowds carried placards reading “Power Belongs to the People” and “The World Says No to Kings.”

The protest formed part of a coordinated international effort to highlight concerns over democratic backsliding and to remind leaders that, as one banner declared, “The world has no use for a tyrant king.”

YOU PU**Y BITCH!
THAT'S WHY YOUR KIDS THEM DON'T LIKE YOU AND YOUR WIFE IS F*CKING ON YOU!

A furious woman unleashed her frustration on federal immigration agents this week — right outside 26 Federal Plaza in New York.

“We angry! All of us angry out here — so don’t think it’s y’all alone!” she shouted, her voice cutting through the crowd of masked officers like fire.

Independent videographer Sandi Bachom caught the raw moment on camera and shared it online, saying the woman’s family member had just been detained after a court hearing.

The clip has since spread like wildfire — a powerful reminder of the pain, anger, and resistance simmering on America’s immigration frontlines.

73 YRS OLD SOMALIA MAN CRIED BECAUSE OF A NOW, REVERSE PROPOSAL TO SET GIRLS MARRIAGE AGE TO 18!

After initially passing a measure to raise the minimum marriage age to 18 in early October 2025, Somalia's federal government reversed the decision within 24 hours following strong public protests. Instead of a fixed age limit, the country will continue to rely on religious criteria to determine a person's maturity for marriage. 

As of late 2025, Somalia has no national law setting a minimum age for marriage. While the country's provisional constitution requires that both parties reach the "age of maturity," this term is not defined by law. In practice, child marriage remains common

A video has surfaced online allegedly showing what appears to be Member of Parliament Peter Bunting discussing a team of bloggers who came on board during the recent general election.

According to Bunting, the team of bloggers which included Kamla Forbes, had joined the People’s National Party-PNP campaign.

According to information obtained from Gaston County officials, Ms. Forbes-Thomas was initially arrested in connection with the larceny case but was granted a reprieve that allowed her to appear in court voluntarily without being placed on bond.

However, after reportedly failing to honor that court appearance, she was fully booked, photographed, and later given a secured bond.

This latest development means Ms. Forbes-Thomas now faces two active charges — the original larceny charge and a new misdemeanor charge of “Failure to Appear” in court.

Born in Kingston, Jamaica, on March 11, 1964, Winsome Earle-Sears migrated to the United States at age six and grew up in the Bronx, New York. A former U.S. Marine Corps veteran and the first Black woman to serve as Virginia’s Lieutenant Governor, Earle-Sears is now the Republican candidate for governor in the November 2025 election.

She’s facing Democratic nominee and former U.S. Representative Abigail Spanberger. Earle-Sears has the internet in a chokehold with her ignorant comment about Solar Energy.

Known for her straight-talk style, she took a swipe at her opponent’s clean-energy plan:

🗣️ “My opponent’s only plan is solar and wind — well, what happens when the sun goes down? There is nothing.”

Mind you, 🌞💨 solar panels actually do produce power on cloudy days, though at a reduced level. And they store enough energy during sunlight and daylight hours to keep things running at night.

According to a 2022 Jamaica Observer report citing the Group of Experts on the Scientific Aspects of Marine Environmental Protection, an estimated 250 oil spills occur annually in the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea.

The Industry experts estimate that a medium to large oil spill could cost between US$2.4 billion and US$9.4 billion, covering cleanup, compensation, and damage to agriculture, fisheries, and wildlife.

On October 11, Russian media claims that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky ordered a deadly drone strike on a busy shopping center in Russia’s Donetsk region—just hours after holding a phone call with U.S. President Donald Trump.

Videos shows the marketplace engulfed in flames. There are no report of casualty but reports suggest several people may have been trapped inside when the strike hit.

Russian outlets are already warning that fierce retaliation could follow, predicting strong condemnation from the White House and Brussels once Moscow responds.

That’s… quite something, considering how many Christians across America view him as divinely chosen — a man sent to “defend faith” and “restore Christian values” in politics.

His admission raises big questions: How do his supporters reconcile their belief in his spiritual mission with his own doubt about eternal reward? For years, Trump has positioned himself as a champion of the religious right — praying on stage, quoting scripture, and earning the backing of powerful evangelical leaders.

But now, his blunt words reveal a rare moment of self-awareness, or perhaps irony — a reminder that even those who claim moral authority in politics are still flawed, human, and uncertain about their place beyond this life.

So what do you think — honesty, or just another headline moment from the man who knows how to keep the world talking?

COLUMBUS DAY!
THE LEGACY AND THE RECKONING!

Every second Monday in October, the United States observes Columbus Day — a holiday that has sparked both pride and protest for decades.

Originally created to celebrate the “discovery” of the Americas by Italian explorer Christopher Columbus in 1492, the day was meant to honor exploration and the spirit of discovery. But for many, it symbolizes something very different. Colonial violence, slavery, and the destruction of Indigenous civilizations.

Across the Americas, the narrative is shifting. More cities and states now mark the day as “Indigenous Peoples’ Day,” recognizing the original inhabitants of the land and their resilience in the face of centuries of oppression.
The movement reflects a global awakening. One that Jamaica and other former colonies deeply understand.

For the Caribbean, Columbus’s arrival was not the dawn of discovery but the beginning of displacement, disease, and domination.
The Taíno people, Jamaica’s first inhabitants, suffered near extinction within a generation of his arrival.
Yet their spirit remains woven into the island’s history, language, and place names.

So today, as some still celebrate Columbus, others choose to remember the truth behind the myth. A story not of discovery, but of survival, resistance, and rebirth.

It is the story of the Taíno, who refused to vanish from history.
The story of the African ancestors who were torn from their homeland and built new ones through strength and faith.
The story of the Caribbean people, who rose from the ashes of genocide and slavery to create cultures rich in music, language, and spirit, unmatched anywhere in the world.

Columbus may have planted a flag, but the people of the Americas planted roots that no empire could destroy.
From Jamaica to Haiti, from Cuba to the Garifuna coast, this day now stands as a reminder that we are not defined by the conquerors. We are defined by those who endured, who rebelled, and who reclaimed their humanity.
