Drivers on a busy Boston highway looked up this week and saw a message stretched across an overpass: “WAR CRIMES DON’T HIDE SEX CRIMES.”
The banner appeared on March 4, 2026, placed by activists with the Boston Bridge Brigade.

The message arrived as the world watched a dangerous war grow in the Middle East. The conflict began on February 28, 2026, when the United States and Israel launched major strikes inside Iran.

Explosions hit military sites, nuclear facilities, and infrastructure in Tehran and other cities. Iranian state media later reported that Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who was 86, died during the opening wave of strikes. His death pushed the country into a period of uncertainty as leaders tried to stabilize power.
Iran answered with missile and drone attacks aimed at Israel and U.S. military positions across the region. Oil routes through the Strait of Hormuz faced disruption while energy prices climbed. Civilians have died, and American troops have also been killed in the fighting.
At the same time, a separate controversy continues to follow President Donald Trump back home.
New material connected to Jeffrey Epstein has been released after the Epstein Files Transparency Act became law in November 2025. By the end of January 2026, millions of pages of records were made public. The documents mention Trump thousands of times. He denies any wrongdoing and says he cut ties with Epstein years ago.
Questions remain about what the public still has not seen. A February 2026 investigation by NPR reported that dozens of pages tied to FBI interviews were not included in the release. Among them were summaries connected to a woman who previously accused Trump of sexual abuse when she was a minor in the 1980s. Justice Department officials say documents were withheld for legal reasons such as duplicates, privilege, or ongoing review.
The Boston banner got people talking everywhere online.
Let’s all do this in each city
