The president, 80, will land in Dublin on Saturday for a brief encounter with the country's top politicians before hightailing it to his golf course on the west coast, where the Irish Open golf tournament is being held.

Trump will go from the capital to Shannon Airport in County Clare, then travel on Marine One to Trump International Golf Links in Doonbeg.

On the flight path to Shannon Airport, one family has left the president a reminder that not everyone is happy that he is in Ireland. An anonymous woman called leading radio network Today FM to talk about her foul-mouthed protest, sharing a photograph of her backyard covered in massive painted letters spelling "FXCK TRUMP."

The massive sign dwarfs the woman's home and stretches across her whole yard.

The woman convinced her husband Paul to help her welcome Trump. "I've been troubling him for a long time to do this because we knew he was going to be coming, and I just said, 'Come on, come on,' keep needling and keep putting the idea in his head. So I think he just gave up and said, 'Come on, we'll do it,'" she told Today FM

Activists from across western Ireland are preparing to protest Trump's visit. Shannonwatch, Futureproof Clare and other groups plan two days of demonstrations at Shannon Airport.

Sinead Sheehan of Futureproof Clare told The Clare Champion that the groups involved include "anti-war, anti-imperialist, women's rights, environmental and social justice activists based in Clare, Galway and Limerick" who are joining forces for the protests.

"We hope to give Trump a great big unwelcome when he arrives in Shannon on Saturday morning," she said.

A spokesperson from Shannonwatch said: "The vast majority of people in Ireland are fundamentally opposed to crimes against humanity and the environment. They stand with Palestine, and all oppressed peoples. We encourage them to make this clear by participating in peaceful protests against Trump over the coming weekend."

The Irish Mirror, meanwhile, interviewed people in Dublin about Trump's imminent arrival. Asked whether she supports the visit, one woman said, "Absolutely not. I wouldn't support him in the least. He's a very, very greedy man, very self-centered and unpredictable."

"I don't, I'm not a fan of his behavior," another woman said, before adding that satisfying the president is important, however, because of Irish interests in the U.S.
A third person said, "I am absolutely not a fan of Donald Trump. And I'd prefer if he didn't come. He's going to cause disruption to us and to anybody trying to play golf."

Many approaches to Dublin Airport go over Dublin Bay, where another protest has been placed. The words 'NO KINGS—GAZA IRAN ICE' were scraped into the sand on a beach in the bay by the campaigning organization Uplift.

Executive director Siobhán O'Donoghue said: "We want to send a message to Trump that he is not welcome here in Ireland. We stand against genocide in Gaza, against his illegal war on Iran, and against masked ICE agents out kidnapping people and tearing families apart.

"His presidency has brought nothing but terror, destruction, and death, and he is not welcome here. We chose sand to drive home the message that Trump's administration will one day be history."
The White House has been contacted for comment.

The rapper was facing five separate charges: Conspiracy to commit murder-for-hire; use of interstate facilities to commit murder-for-hire resulting in death; conspiracy to commit interstate stalking; interstate stalking involving a dangerous weapon; and interstate stalking resulting in death.

His co-defendants Deandre Wilson and David Lindsay were found guilty on the stalking and stalking conspiracy charges, and acquitted on the rest.

The verdict comes after Durk’s legal team and prosecutors issued closing arguments, with the latter, per original reporting from Jaelani Turner-Williams for Complex, alleging that the Deep Thoughts artist “had his shooters on speed dial.” The defense offered a differing account, with emphasis placed on viewing Durk as “not a prize in a carnival” to be used as leverage for witnesses, but “a human being.”

Shortly after deliberations began on Wednesday (Sept. 9), the jury sent a note to the judge asking for evidence to be compiled in digital form. The request was honored. Additional notes from jurors followed on Thursday (Sept. 10), including one asking for clarity on the legal definition of “intent.”

In the case, which carried the possibility of a life sentence for Durk, the 33-year-old was accused of orchestrating a fatal 2022 shooting that resulted in the death of Saviay’a “Lul Pab” Robinson, cousin to Quando Rondo. Prosecutors alleged the shooting was carried out as part of a retaliatory effort in response to the death of OTF artist King Von, who was shot and killed in 2020. Durk maintained his innocence.
