Trump Considers U.S. Withdrawal from NATO, Calls Alliance “Paper Tiger”

  Donald Trump has revealed that the United States is considering withdrawing from the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, following disagreements over the alliance’s stance on the conflict involving Iran. In an interview with The Telegraph published on Wednesday, Trump described NATO as a “paper tiger,” raising concerns about its strength and relevance in current global security matters. The U.S. leader expressed dissatisfaction with NATO’s refusal to support military action related to Iran, a position that appears to have widened the gap between Washington and its long-standing allies. Trump’s remarks signal a renewed wave of criticism against the alliance, which has historically served as a cornerstone of Western defense cooperation. His stance also revives long-standing debates about the U.S. role within NATO and whether the country should continue its commitment to the bloc. Security analysts warn that any move by the United States to withdraw from NATO could significantly res...

U.S. Marine Veteran Arrested After Interrupting Senate Hearing With Anti-War Protest

 A U.S. Marine veteran was arrested after interrupting a hearing at the United States Senate Armed Services Committee with an anti-war protest, drawing attention to growing public debate over U.S. involvement in overseas conflicts.

The protester, identified as Brian McGinnis, stood up during the session and began shouting that many Americans do not want to see their sons and daughters sent to fight in foreign wars.

McGinnis expressed frustration over military deployments abroad, arguing that ordinary soldiers are often placed on the front lines while political leaders remain far removed from the realities of war.

Security personnel quickly intervened as officers from the United States Capitol Police moved to remove him from the hearing room. Reports indicate that McGinnis continued shouting as he was escorted out, resisting officers before he was eventually detained.

Authorities later confirmed that he was arrested and could face charges related to resisting law enforcement during the incident.


The dramatic protest briefly disrupted proceedings in the Senate chamber and has since sparked debate online about U.S. foreign policy, military deployments, and the rights of citizens to protest government decisions.

The incident comes at a time when tensions in the Middle East and discussions about potential military engagements continue to dominate global political discourse.

The event highlights the deep divisions within the United States over the country’s role in international conflicts.

BREAKING: Esa-Oke Youths Reunite as Survivors, Caution Pelumi against revisionism

....we’re not your campaign slogan Once upon a glorious, chaotic 2017, practically every able-bodied youth in Esa-Oke held honorary title in the land: Personal Assistant to Barrister Pelumi Olajengbesi. No interviews. No pay. Just passion, blind loyalty, and the stamina to chase him from one campaign ground to the next like a political body double. From Comrade Mainframe to Comrade Swiss, from Yinka Oba to the humble football boys who carried cones like national flags, we were there. We were the movement. Until, of course. Now in 2025, Barrister Pelumi, clearly inspired by a Netflix political drama is on a media tour telling anyone who’ll listen that he "settled everyone who worked for him." Settled who, please? Maybe in his dreams or in the metaverse. In the real world, the story’s a bit different. Those of us from Obokun, who hustled day and night, got exactly zero: no thank you, no handshake. Take Sami, now a former Ward 7 councillor, no thanks from Pelumi. Folusho? Aregbe...

BREAKING: PDP Bleeds in Oriade: Commissioner Loses 14 Party Leaders to Wole Oke in Home Ward

In a significant political shift, 14 grassroots leaders, including prominent women and youth coordinators from Ward 11, covering Ijeda and Iloko in Oriade Local Government Area of Osun State, have resigned from the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) and pledged allegiance to Hon. Wole Oke’s growing political camp in the All Progressives Congress (APC). The mass resignation, formalized in a jointly signed letter, marks a deepening crack within the PDP structure in Oriade, as key mobilizers abandon the party over what they describe as years of marginalization, poor internal democracy, and a lack of direction. Their defection is also seen as a major boost to Wole Oke’s political momentum within the APC, following his recent and controversial departure from the PDP. “We are grateful for the opportunities and experiences we had as PDP members,” the group stated, “but the party no longer reflects our values or aspirations. We believe in Hon. Wole Oke’s leadership and vision, and we are proud to...

Assassination Attempt: Police can’t deny what’s on their desk, says Amotekun boss

  The Corps Commander of the Osun Amotekun Corps , High Chief Dr Hon. Adekunle Isaac Omoyele , who is currently receiving treatment at an undisclosed hospital following an attempted assassination on his life on Monday, has strongly refuted the claims made by the Osun State Police Spokeperson regarding the incident. Reacting to the statement by the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), who claimed that investigations had not commenced because the Commander had not provided evidence of the attack, the Amotekun boss expressed deep disappointment, labeling the police response as insensitive and misleading. "It is shocking that a police spokesperson would say there is no evidence of an attack when the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) of Ota-Efun Division — the nearest jurisdiction to the incident — was immediately informed," the Commander said. "Officers from that division visited the scene the same night, assessed the damage, evacuated the vehicle, and advised me to seek ...
