    A new sculpture has been unveiled in London’s Trafalgar Square, where it will stand for the next two years. “Lady in Blue,” by New York-based artist Tschabalala Self, is a bronze statue of an anonymous young Black woman wearing a form-fitting blue dress, matching heels and glass beaded jewelry. She’s strong and she’s going places. It is the 16th statue to be installed on the so-called Fourth Plinth, as part of an ongoing public art commission first launched by the Royal Society of Arts and today supported by the Mayor of London, Arts Council England and Bloomsbury Philanthropies. “Lady...

  • Diamond prices collapse as labs overtake mined stones and upend luxury market

    Lab-grown diamonds are upending a centuries-old luxury market, sending prices tumbling and forcing miners, jewellers and consumers to rethink what makes a diamond valuable. Gold could be next. Something once unthinkable is happening in the historic world of diamonds. The stones that have symbolised wealth, power, and unbreakable love for centuries have lost half their value since 2022. Diamonds may be forever. Their prices, it turns out, are not. The culprit is a technological revolution that has transformed one of the world’s oldest luxury markets. Diamonds grown in laboratories are flooding jewellery stores, undercutting mined stone prices by as much...

    New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez were caught laughing together at the 9/11 25th anniversary memorial service on Friday. The Democrats were seen bursting into laughter at the Ground Zero event in lower Manhattan, while the names of 9/11 victims were being read and mourners stood silently around them. At the same moment, loved ones of the victims of the attacks were reading names of the deceased, and others were seen crying at the memorial. It comes after Mamdani appeared at the event despite being urged not to attend by 9/11 victims groups, which he refused...
  • Liberal Virginia school district: Don't link 9/11 terror attacks to 'Islam or Muslims'

    A wealthy Washington, D.C., suburb's public school district is advising teachers not to link 9/11 with radical Islam and to be sure to create "safe spaces" for Muslim students as the nation somberly marks the 25th anniversary of the terror attacks that killed nearly 3,000 Americans. The guardrails in a six-page instructional guide, "25th Anniversary and Commemoration of 9/11" and distributed to teachers, has prompted critics to accuse Fairfax County (Virginia) Public School's liberal leaders of coddling post-9/11 sensitivities rather than teaching history. "It's sort of a vanilla way to do things," retired Navy Vice Admiral Lou Crenshaw, who was...

    Room full of women on the Oprah show starts cheering after a doctor says that black female child murderers need to be supported too, not just the white child murderers like Lindsay Clancy. "I want us to have the same passion for [female child murderers] who don't look like Lindsay." "There are women of color sitting around this country in prisons for [murdering their children]. I just wanna remind us to have the pink shirts and the energy for them as well." Totally insane.

    Last September 11, every Muslim congressmember and some radical allies teamed up on a congressional resolution demanding reparations to Muslims for 9/11. House Resolution 741, introduced a week after the anniversary of September 11, claimed that “in the aftermath of September 11, 2001” Muslims “experienced hate and were targeted by the government” and called for “various forms of relief to support those affected.” The money would have potentially gone to Islamic groups listed as terror co-conspirators. While the resolution did not specify which “community-based organizations” that “center the experiences and demands of Arab, Muslim, Middle Eastern” and others would have...

    Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) told the National Baptist Convention this week that she is “amazed watching how God works” in advancing progressive politics, citing organizing efforts in deep-red states. Speaking to the convention in Orlando, Florida, the New York Democrat framed a string of recent electoral developments in religious terms, describing them as the fruit of faith-based organizing during her 2024 rally tour with Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT). She recounted stops in states pundits called hopeless. “Why would you go to Idaho? Why would you go to Montana? Why would you go to Utah?” Ocasio-Cortez said. “I felt very called.”...

    Vice president increasingly looks like presidential candidate, but some Republicans want Marco Rubio DALLAS—Vice President JD Vance looked very much like a presidential candidate-in-waiting at the Republican convention this week. He delivered a prime-time address, met with delegates from battleground states and headlined a high-dollar fundraiser with GOP donors.Vance’s Thursday night speech fired up the crowd, as he laid out his vision for the America he wants his children to grow up in, while painting Democrats as extreme. During the speech, audience members said the quiet part out loud, shouting “48!” Donald Trump is the 47th U.S. president, and the...

    A Chinese national who managed to get a job working as a U.S. Customs and Border Protection supervisor in Calais has been arrested and charged in what FBI agents claim was a plot to install modified hardware in Department of Homeland Security computers. Terry “Jiajia” Liu — originally of Guangzhou, per his Facebook page — was arrested after a counter intelligence investigation captured hidden-camera footage of him breaking into government computers and modifying the hard drives. According to court records released Friday in Maine District Court, Liu is alleged to have stripped valuable components from government computers, replaced them with...

    Good deeds are not enough. Name who did this. State why. And say, without embarrassment: never again. eptember 11 is not a day for vague emotional uplift. It is not a seminar on American foreign policy. It is not an occasion to distort a massacre into “differences with the United States.” It is the anniversary of a morning when Islamist terrorists murdered nearly three thousand people on American soil. Calls to unite Americans and “do a good deed” to honor those murdered by these terrorists are fine if they come with a clear account of who attacked this country, why...

    Wynning History ^ | 11 September A.D. 2026 | Jack Wynn
    Today marks the 25th anniversary of the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. The events of that day shaped my life, even though I was a third grader more than a hundred miles from any of the attack sites, with no direct connection to anyone who was there. As I’ve reflected on the 25th anniversary of the events that reshaped our world, my mind kept returning to another day that created a similar “flashbulb memory” for an earlier generation of Americans. Nearly 85 years ago, on December 7, 1941, Japanese forces launched a surprise attack on Pearl Harbor and other...

    CDC Undercounts Defensive Gun Uses COMMENTARY By John R. Lott Jr.September 11, 2026 CDC Undercounts Defensive Gun UsesAP Whoever controls crime data can shape the political debate. The Trump administration has already reversed some of the changes the Biden administration made to federal crime and gun data, including information from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). But politicization of data at the FBI and Justice Department still deserves attention. Gun-control activists have long tried to “debunk” what they call the “good guy with a gun myth” as they push for stricter gun-control laws. The federal government and much...
