In a dramatic show of defiance and solidarity, over 90,000 protesters flooded Sydney Harbour Bridge on Sunday in what organisers hailed as a "historic" pro-Palestinian demonstration. Despite heavy rain and a last-minute legal battle, the Supreme Court authorised the event just 24 hours prior. The peaceful protest, dubbed the "March for Humanity", featured families, activists, and notable figures like Julian Assange,
MP Ed Husic, and ex-NSW Premier Bob Carr. Chants of “Ceasefire now” echoed across the bridge as riot police stood guard. The NSW Police had initially tried to block the protest, citing safety risks, but the court found no evidence a ban would enhance security. The march caused major traffic disruptions across Sydney, and sparked debate, with the NSW Jewish Board of Deputies calling the court’s decision “disappointing.” Meanwhile, pressure grows on Australia to recognise Palestine, but PM Albanese says he won’t act unless conditions for Israel’s security are met.

U.S. President Donald Trump delivered a highly anticipated Fourth of July address live from Washington D.C. as part of the America250 celebrations, marking the nation’s 249th birthday. In a speech filled with patriotic fervor, Trump honored America’s founding ideals while outlining ambitious plans for the Semiquincentennial in 2026. The president praised military veterans, first responders, and American workers, and touched on recent national victories in border security, energy independence, and economic growth. Trump also teased major upcoming events, including the “Patriot Games,” a sports tournament across all 50 states, and a proposed UFC title fight on White House grounds. His remarks blended national pride with political firepower, reigniting his re-election momentum and rallying his base. The event featured fireworks, military flyovers, and a record crowd waving flags under the D.C. sky — a show of unity and spectacle only Trump could deliver.

In a bombshell announcement, US President Donald Trump has revealed plans to host a full-fledged UFC championship fight at the White House as part of the America250 celebrations. Speaking at a rally in Iowa, Trump said the event will take place on the White House grounds and could draw 20,000 to 25,000 fans. UFC CEO Dana White is expected to coordinate the unprecedented event.
While some Americans are calling it a bold and patriotic move, critics have branded it bizarre, likening it to scenes from the film Idiocracy. The UFC match will be part of a wider series of festivities across the nation, including the “Patriot Games” and reenactments at historic sites. This unconventional announcement has further stirred the already polarizing public reaction to Trump's vision of America250.
