Doha, Qatar—Rainbow flags could be taken from fans at the World Cup in Qatar to protect them from being attacked for promoting gay rights, a senior leader overseeing security for the tournament told The Associated Press. Major General Abdulaziz Abdullah Al Ansari insisted that LGBTQ couples would be welcomed and accepted in Qatar for the Nov. 21-Dec. 18 FIFA showpiece despite same-sex relations remaining criminalized in the conservative Gulf nation. But Al Ansari is against the overt promotion of LGBTQ freedoms as symbolized by the rainbow flag that FIFA and World Cup organizers had previously said would be welcome across Qatar’s eight stadiums.

A 16-year-old was arrested Saturday for his part in a random gang attack on a Hasidic man on a Brooklyn street, cops said. The group of bullies descended on the 21-year-old victim in front of 5 Gerry St. in Williamsburg, punching and kicking the man without any “prior words or provocation,” the NYPD said. The man was forced to the ground as the attackers ran off, police said. The victim was treated by an ambulance on the scene of the Friday evening attack, for minor injuries to his mouth, cops said. The teenager, who was not identified by name, was slapped with charges of gang assault
A gay substitute teacher in Ohio was fired last week after handing out pride bracelets to high school students. Jay Bowman, who taught at Huntington Local Schools in Chillicothe, Ohio, for 30 years, said he was fired due to “community complaints” about private onversations with students over a wristband he was wearing.
The bracelet is rainbow-colored and represents First Capital Pride—a local non-profit supporting the LGBTQIA+ community. Mr. Bowman said he handed them out to students and answered questions about the group.(Snip)Huntington Local School District Superintendent Peter Ruby said the teacher violated policies by speaking about personal beliefs and political and religious topics.
A 35-year-old man shot by police last month in downtown Savannah when he allegedly brandished a handgun at two off-duty officers died Tuesday, becoming the 14th person killed by law enforcement in Georgia this year, according to the GBI. Robert Gadson was critically injured when he was shot March 26 outside a bar, the GBI said. Gadson had been involved in a dispute with a bouncer around 3 a.m. when he pulled a gun, according to the state agency. Two off-duty Savannah police officers were working security next door and responded to the incident. They told Gadson to drop his gun, but instead he pointed his
It’s a tour de farce. Prospective New York University students and their parents are getting an unwelcome taste of the Big Apple’s homeless crisis as they tour the college’s Greenwich Village campus.
The student-led tour groups are being routinely harassed by begging vagrants—and even assaulted. One group was pelted with eggs Monday afternoon standing outside the Goddard Hall dorm on Washington Square East. A guide told The Post this week that he has been hassled for cash and grabbed by a vagrant demanding money.(Snip)“You can see them visibly disgusted and say ‘I don’t want to apply here, I don’t want to apply here because I feel unsafe,'
In a public ceremony delayed two years by the pandemic, President Joe Biden on Saturday commissioned the USS Delaware, a nuclear attack submarine, saying it would enhance national security, though he made no reference to the global turmoil from Russia's invasion of Ukraine. First Lady Jill Biden is the submarine's sponsor, a ceremonial role meant to bring a vessel luck, which technically makes her a crew member for life. The honor, steeped in Navy tradition, is typically assigned to a female civilian. During her remarks at the ceremony in Wilmington, Delaware, she exclaimed: 'Officers and crew of the USS Delaware, man our ship and bring her to life!'
A Georgia mother who was stopped from reading an excerpt from a book at a school board meeting because it was 'inappropriate' has expressed her frustration at the 'irony' of the book being available in libraries. Michelle Brown attended a Cherokee County School Board meeting on March 17, demanding answers about the inclusion of Homegoing by Yaa Gyasi in the schools' libraries.(Snip)'If I gave a child one of these books, I'd go to jail,' she told Laura Ingraham. 'But they can get it in our school libraries. And it's not OK.'
On March 17, after explaining the complicated bureaucratic process for having a book removed from shelves,
Washington—A federal grand jury has heard testimony in recent months about Hunter Biden's income and payments he received while serving on the board of a Ukraine energy company, according to two people familiar with the probe. It remains unclear whether he might be charged. But the grand jury activity underscores that a federal tax investigation into President Joe Biden's son that began in 2018 remains active as prosecutors continue to examine foreign payments and other aspects of his finances.(Snip)Hunter Biden confirmed the existence of an investigation into his taxes in December 2020, one month after the presidential election. He said in a statement at the time that
In the eight child-porn cases that came before her court, former D.C. District Court Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson heard horrifying details of “sadomasochistic” torture of young kids—including “infants and toddlers”—yet challenged the disturbing evidence presented by prosecutors and disregarded their prison recommendations to give the lightest possible punishments in each case, according to transcripts of sentencing hearings obtained by the Post. In some cases, she even apologized to some of the kiddie-porn perverts for having to follow the statutes, which she called “substantially flawed.” Over and over, the records reveal, Jackson made excuses for the sex fiends’ criminal behavior and cut them slack in defiance of investigators
The Pentagon has announced $300 million in additional aid to Ukraine. The latest package includes a bevy of unmanned aerial systems, secure communications, and laser-guided rockets among other equipment aimed at bolstering “Ukraine’s capacity to defend itself.”
“This decision underscores the United State’s unwavering commitment to Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity in support of its heroic efforts to repeal Russia’s war of choice,” Pentagon press secretary John Kirby said Friday. President Biden has signed off on more than $1.6 billion in aid to Ukraine since the start of the war, including Stinger anti-aircraft missiles, Javelin anti-tank missiles, and millions of rounds of small arms ammunition while imposing
A top city health official and progressive crusader ignited a firestorm when she used different terms for white and minority mothers. Dr. Michelle Morse, the chief medical officer at the Department of Health, touted a new “birth equity” initiative to provide more midwives and doulas to moms in a series of tweets—selectively using the woke term “birthing people” instead of pregnant women. “The urgency of this moment is clear. Mortality rates of birthing people are too high, and babies born to Black and Puerto Rican mothers in this city are three times more likely to die in their first year of life than babies born to non-Hispanic White birthing
A 72-year-old Maryland woman was shoved to the ground Friday in an apparently unprovoked attack. Cyndi Gradwell had just arrived in the city with her two daughters when she was pushed by a man walking alongside her on Ninth Avenue, cops say. Surveillance video of the incident shows Gradwell walking north between 35th and 36th streets, trailing a pink rolling suitcase behind her. She walks around a man in a large white coat, who turns toward her. The man’s hands are blocked from the camera’s view, but he walks toward her and she tumbles to the ground.(Snip) Windield has a slew of priors, including an assault arrest

The White House refused to rule out President Joe Biden issuing a presidential pardon for his son Hunter Biden or for his brother James Biden as federal investigations continue over their foreign business dealings.
“That’s not a hypothetical I’m going to entertain,” White House communications director Kate Bedingfield said during the daily press briefing when asked about a potential pardon “I don’t have anything to add from this podium. Bedingfield was reluctant to address any aspect of the Hunter Biden story, after CNN, The Washington Post, and the New York Times recently published stories about the federal tax probe
Last month, a group of parents in Orlando, Florida, demanded “consequences” against sixth grade science teacher Robert Thollander. His crime? Thollander acknowledged his marriage at school.
“He married a man. This alone is not an issue. Sharing the details … with all his 6th grade students is the issue,” the parents wrote in a letter sent to their children’s school board, which was shared with NBC News. “It was not appropriate. Many of these students felt very uncomfortable with the conversations and shared this with their families.”
Had Thollander just “said he will be out for a few days because he was getting married, no problem,” the letter continued

Former President Donald Trump blasted President Joe Biden's repeal of a pandemic-era border restriction at a rally Saturday night - claiming the decision will result in a 'deluge of illegal immigration.' The former president claimed at his Save America rally Saturday night that he had the 'most secure border in the history of our nation,' but warned that with Biden's '‘foolhardy’ repeal of Title 42, ‘We will be deluged by illegal immigration.' ‘We’re being invaded by millions and millions of people,' the former president added, claiming Democrats want there to be a 'sanctuary for dangerous illegal immigrants.'

The passing of Florida’s Parental Rights in Education bill and Gov. Ron DeSantis’ signing of it into law have escalated into a tense war between the increasingly solid red state and The Walt Disney Corporation, which continues to double down on its heavily pro-LGBT stance.
Disney has vowed to fight for the repeal of the law despite the fact that it reflects the values of parents throughout the state — as well as many of the company’s cast members (which is what Disney calls its employees).
But, just as we’ve expected from Florida’s governor, DeSantis isn’t simply rolling over — he’s fighting back.
Why Does Disney Hire So Many Pedophiles?

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis sent the LBGT community and the woke corporations into a frenzy when he championed (and signed into law) an anti-groomer bill that prevents school teachers from grooming 5 year old children about deviant sex practices. (Snip--video) The Disney Company believes that grooming your kids is the hill that it wants to die on — which should tell you everything you need to know about the people running Disney these days. No sane corporation would put out a statement such as this one unless it wanted to be recognized as a pro-pedophile organization.
Washington State Looks to Ban New Gas Cars

The Democrats’ war on the internal combustion engine isn’t just solely an obsession with the radical Left and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY). It’s being exported to the state legislatures now. It’s also not shocking that most left-wing states are adopting such measures that are Green New Deal-influenced. In Washington, there could be a ban on new gas cars. Yes, they’re taking the Oregon Trail game to its most extreme limits. It's back to the methods of travel not seen since the Donner Party san cannibalism (via Daily Wire):

While Psaki has yet to sign an official contract, the report notes that the progressive network has been chipping away at negotiations with her for weeks.

It's getting increasingly anxiety-inducing to watch President Joe Biden give these public addresses. This Saturday, the president and first lady spoke at the commissioning commemoration ceremony of the USS Delaware.The remarks weren't exactly memorable because either of them said something groundbreaking. The president, however, did mix himself up with former First Lady Michelle Obama, with "Michelle Obama" trending on Twitter for Saturday night. (Tweets/Video) As a result, the White House transcript had to go in and save him, as they've had to do before with this administration.

Homosexuals can enter the stadium and watch the game, but won't be allowed to turn it into an LGBTQ-Pedo Pride event, which is akin to telling them they're not allowed to breathe, or to cruise for children in the toilets. Does this rise to the level of a human rights violation, by modern American values?
