    American Thinker ^ | Charlotte Cushman
    Children have become targets because many people in the LGBTQ movement define themselves by their sexual orientation. Rather than their sexuality being a part of their identity, it is their complete identity, and they feel insecure about it. Instead of getting help, they feel obsessed with gaining approval, and when approval is not given, they go after children and try to sexualize them. This behavior is sexual abuse. Some very interesting observations about grooming children were made on Sunny Lohmann’s podcast on March 10, 2022. Sunny said everyone she knows who is confused about their sexuality is messed up, is...

    A pregnant woman and her baby have died after Russia bombed the maternity hospital where she was meant to give birth, The Associated Press has learned. Images of the woman being rushed to an ambulance on a stretcher had circled the world, epitomizing the horror of an attack on humanity’s most innocent. The woman was rushed to another hospital, yet closer to the frontline, where doctors labored to keep her alive. Realizing she was losing her baby, medics said, she cried out to them, “Kill me now!” Surgeon Timur Marin found the woman’s pelvis crushed and hip detached. Medics delivered...

    NEW YORK (AP) — Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan is planning trips to Iowa and New Hampshire. Rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Ill., is considering a rough timeline for a potential presidential announcement.

    Just over a week ago I met a group of young men who had volunteered at a centre in Kyiv to fight for Ukraine. Most of them were in their late teens, not long out of school. They told me that after three days' basic training they would head for the front line - or very close to it. Some of them were wearing knee pads that looked too small, as if they had come with skateboards on their 12th birthdays. A few had sleeping bags. One had a yoga mat. When they waited outside for the bus that was...

    The mayors of New York City and Washington, DC urged their cities’ homeless populations to seek shelter Sunday as a “cold-blooded killer” who had shot at least five vagrants remained on the loose. A lone gunman is suspected of targeting sleeping homeless men in a series of shootings in DC and the Big Apple this month that has so far left two men dead and three others wounded. New York Mayor Eric Adams and DC Mayor Muriel Bowser said they were coordinating with federal authorities to investigate the crimes before he strikes again.

    For the past five years, South Korea’s foreign policy decisions have been shaped with one goal in mind: peace with North Korea. Now, under an incoming conservative president, Yoon Suk-yeol, South Korea is poised to make a hawkish about-face that would reshape its relationship with not only North Korea but also the United States, China, Japan and nations beyond.

    As Western sanctions on Moscow mount following its invasion of Ukraine, Chinese media tells a story to domestic readers that avoids blaming Russia and portrays sympathy for President Vladimir Putin's perspective. Beijing has refused to support nor condemn its close ally Moscow, while blaming the United States and the "eastward expansion" of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) for worsening tensions. It is a view that reverberates across state newspapers and television - as well as social media - in China's tightly controlled news environment.

    Germany is reportedly planning to equip its air force with US-built F-35 stealth military jets. Berlin has previously announced that it will invest more in defense in light of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Germany has decided in principle to purchase the U.S. fighter jet F-35 built by Lockheed Martin to replace its aging Tornado fleet, according to reports on Monday. The decision, if confirmed, comes after German Chancellor Olaf Scholz last month announced a massive boost in defense spending as the Ukraine conflict forces Berlin to reassess its foreign and defense policies. Why does Germany need the planes? Berlin is...

    Russian President Vladimir Putin, who is to meet President Joe Biden at a summit Wednesday, has suggested that the hundreds of people arrested for rioting at the U.S. Capitol are being subjected to “persecution for political opinions.” Putin is likely to come under strong criticism from Biden at their meeting in Geneva for moves against his political opponents in Russia, particularly the imprisonment of opposition leader Alexei Navalny, the detention of thousands of demonstrators protesting his arrest, and the outlawing of Navalny’s organizations as extremist. “You are presenting it as dissent and intolerance toward dissent in Russia. We view it...

    The World Health Organization (WHO) said Sunday it is concerned the war in Ukraine could worsen the Covid-19 pandemic, and it is trying to do more to limit the spread of infectious diseases. Cases in the region are down from the previous week, but there's significant risk there will be more severe disease and death due to low vaccination rates in Ukraine, as well as among the more than two million who've fled the country to surrounding areas, regions also with low vaccination rates. Ukraine's Covid-19 vaccination rate is around 34%, while neighboring Moldova's is around 29%, according to Our...

Unnamed officials reportedly told multiple US news outlets that Russia asked China to provide military assistance after it began the invasion. The Chinese embassy in Washington said it was not aware of this request. The warning comes ahead of a meeting in Rome on Monday between top US and China officials.

    The argument from the NYC Dept. of Education, under Schools Chancellor David Brooks, is that Maia Kobabe's "Gender Queer" "is well written," and that "Students with a similar experience will feel affirmed." A New York mom reached out to the New York City Department of Education to find out why a book featuring child pornography was allowed in the libraries of New York City public schools and to ask for it to be reconsidered for inclusion in the collection. The response she got was that it is both appropriate and beneficial for students to have graphic sexual imagery featured in...

    The base outside Lviv, Ukraine, that was attacked by Russian forces early Sunday was a key link between Ukraine’s armed forces and Western militaries before the war — and has become an important logistics hub and training center for foreign fighters since Russia’s invasion began. A Ukrainian military official said that up to 1,000 foreign fighters were training at the base — the International Peacekeeping and Security Center, which is also known as the Yavoriv military complex — as part of the new International Legion that Ukraine has formed to help fight Russia.
