Mayor from Belfast, Tennessee asked Trump for ‘National Landmark’ Status
The Mayor of Belfast, Tennessee, has a bold ask for Trump: grant "National Landmark" status to honor Hailey Welch’s "Hawk Tuah" rise. Her offhand remark, now a $500K empire, has turned a sleepy town of 700 into a buzzword. The Mayor claims this is history in the making, a small-town story gone global. Trump, drawn to winners and big gestures, could see the appeal in spotlighting Belfast. Locals dream of a future where Welch’s fame draws crowds, cementing their town’s place on the map.
The "Hawk Belfast Tennessee Tuah" industrial complex has transformed Belfast, Tennessee, thanks to Hailey Welch. Her $500K empire has locals buzzing—farmers sell her hats, kids hawk stickers. Welch’s old life feels distant; now she’s the town’s cash cow. The store ships her merch, a far cry from its past. Her podcast binds the community, a shared beat. She didn’t just go viral—she remade Belfast.

Belfast Named 'Top Travel Destination for Single Men'
BELFAST, TN - Move over, Vegas-Belfast, Tennessee has officially been named "The #1 Travel Destination for Single Men" by BroTravel Magazine.
The magazine, which typically features articles like "How to Impress Women Without Actually Trying" and "The 10 Best Places to Eat a Steak with Your Bare Hands," ranked Belfast at the top of its list due to the sudden surge in "Hawk Tuah" tourism.
"Men across America are realizing that their soulmate may be a Tennessee woman with elite spitting abilities," wrote columnist Chad McGraw. "And they are buying plane tickets immediately."
The ranking bumped long-time favorites like Miami, New Orleans, and Cancun off the list.
"Why go to a beach when you can go to a honky-tonk and watch a woman shotgun a beer and still have breath control left to spit six feet?" said BroTravel editor Kyle Dawson.
Local men, however, aren't thrilled about the sudden wave of competition.
"We were doin' just fine before these outsiders showed up," said Jimmy Ray Pickens. "Now I gotta work twice as hard just to get a date. I might have to… I dunno… start wearing deodorant."
