Democracy in the Cage: Uncle Sam on the Ropes
The White House lawn has seen its share of ceremonies, protests, and presidential addresses. But never before has it looked like this: a steel cage, floodlights, and two unlikely fighters locked in a brawl for the nation’s attention. On one side, Uncle Sam — the lanky, bearded symbol of America’s ideals, dressed in his star-spangled best. On the other, a red-capped bruiser who treats politics as a pay-per-view event rather than a solemn responsibility.

Bread, Circuses, and the South Lawn
When Dana White and Donald Trump announced that UFC cage fights would be staged on the South Lawn of the White House during America’s 250th birthday in 2026, it sounded like parody. But it wasn’t satire. It was spectacle — and spectacle has a long history.

If Charlie Kirk was Black Republican
Ever since Charlie Kirk’s assassination, things have gone haywire. Half were saddened by this god awful tragedy, half were stunned, and the other half celebrated his death. After the assassination, Trump ordered that the flag of the United States be flown at half-staff at the White House, on all public buildings and grounds, at all military posts and naval stations, and on all naval vessels of the Federal Government in the District of Columbia and throughout the United States and its Territories and possessions, as a mark of respect for Kirk. The order remained in effect until sunset on September 14.

Western Powers Shift Gears: Canada, UK, Australia & Portugal Recognize State of Palestine Ahead of UN Assembly
On September 21, 2025, the world witnessed a diplomatic pivot.

The startling announcements, made by Prime Ministers Mark Carney (Canada), Keir Starmer (UK), Anthony Albanese (Australia), and Portugal’s Foreign Minister João Gomes Cravinho, marked a significant shift in foreign policy from long-standing allies of Israel. The message was clear: the international community’s patience is being tested, and a new course is being demanded.

King of The North: Andy Burnham.
What Sadiq Khan is to the south as the Mayor of London, so Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham is to the north. Can one compare Burnham with Khan? Well, both are former Labour MPs, and whether you voted for them or not, they have been the face of the cities they oversee.

Trump's Visit and Mandelson's Sacking.. Content Warning.
Donald Trump's visit to the UK could not have come at a worse time for Sir Keir Starmer. Peter Mandelson was let go by Sir Keir when he found out he had been involved with Epstein. Given Epstein's penchant for underage girls, Starmer had no choice but to sack Mandelson. Everyone who has ever mixed with Epstein has been tarnished. One well remembers the car crash interview of Prince Andrew. Even Trump has been implicated, but it seems that Trump broke off the friendship for whatever reason. Epstein must be laughing with Satan at the chaos he is still causing beyond the grave.

When Comedy Becomes a Crime: The Chilling Suspension of Jimmy Kimmel's Show (Opinion) by NWO Sparrow
Late-Night Under Fire: Is This the End of Free-Wheeling Monologues in the Trump Era and Beyond? The suspension of Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show by ABC this week should alarm anyone who believes in the principles of free speech and the role of comedy in a democracy. Kimmel’s monologue touched a nerve, no doubt, but the punishment far outweighs the words. What is happening is not just about one host making a controversial remark. It is about the growing pressure on networks to silence critical voices, especially when those voices take aim at the political right.
