I Didn’t Make a Mistake! : Trump’s Monkey Video Shows His Personal Hate Against African-Americans

In early February 2026, Trump posted—and later deleted—a video on Truth Social depicting Barack Obama and Michelle Obama as apes, invoking a historically racist trope meant deliberately to demean Black Americans and stir political outrage in a deeply personal, offensive way. The shameless video clip appeared as part of a longer conspiracy-driven post about the 2020 election and stayed online for nearly twelve hours before public backlash forced its removal, exposing systemic indifference. Trump’s monkey video shows his personal hate against African Americans by targeting two of the most prominent Black Americans in modern history. During this time, Trump did…

My friend and I were there, stunned, in the midst of the collective shock. A few blocks away, smoking concrete, flames, rubble: the material embodiment of a global trauma. Within earshot, a group of young people were discussing. One of them asked, "What should we do with the perpetrators?" I replied, "Find them, arrest them, try them." Another retorted…

Behind the Veil of Ceasefire: Decoding Trump’s Betrayal of Palestinian Rights

Only a cursory look at Trump's Gaza plan, revealed during his summit with the Israeli Prime Minister at the White House on Monday, indicates that the Israelis have not yet achieved their military objectives after more than two years of bloodshed and ethnic cleansing in Gaza. In fact, both Trump and Netanyahu seek to seize control of Gaza and totally eradicate Hamas under the guise of "ceasefire". Following the anticipated meeting between Trump and Netanyahu, characterised as "efforts for a ceasefire in Gaza", both parties made remarks literally irrelevant to ceasefire or peace initiatives. Trump's outlined proposal stipulates the release…
