Donald Trump
Donald John Trump (born June 14, 1946) is the 45th and current president of the United States. Before entering politics, he was a businessman and television personality. Trump was born and raised in Queens, a borough of New York City, and received a bachelor's degree in economics from the Wharton School. He took charge of his family's real-estate business in 1971, renamed it The Trump Organization, and expanded its operations from Queens and Brooklyn into Manhattan. The company built or renovated skyscrapers, hotels, casinos, and golf courses. Trump later started various side ventures, mostly by licensing his name. He bought the Miss Universe brand of beauty pageants in 1996, and sold it in 2015. He produced and hosted The Apprentice, a reality television series, from 2003 to 2015. As of 2020, Forbes estimated his net worth to be $2.1 billion.[

Republican presidential hopefuls Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley traded barbs and touted their anti-transgender positions and records over the course of Wednesday night’s debate hosted by CNN in Des Moines, Iowa.

The candidates were alone on stage, as the Republican frontrunner, former President Donald Trump, again declined to participate, while former New Jersey Gov.

Chris Christie and entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy did not qualify. Hours before the debate began, Christie announced his exit from the race — and, in a “hot mic” moment, expressed doubts about the likelihood that either DeSantis or Haley is capable of taking on Trump, who has dominated polls of likely Republican primary voters for over a year.

The candidates’ two-hour debate veered into anti-trans territory quickly, with DeSantis arguing “it is wrong to sexualize the curriculum,” an apparent nod to the idea that LGBTQ inclusive materials in schools are inherently prurient or obscene. “It’s wrong to tell a kindergartener, like Disney wanted to do, that you can change your gender, or tell a third grader that you’re born in the wrong body,” he said.

lgbt Rights Courts country Extreme politician Russia: Supreme Court bans 'LGBT movement' for 'extremism'
Russia's Supreme Court on Thursday banned the "international LGBT movement" for extremism in the midst of the country's conservative turn, paving the way for legal action against any group defending LGBT+ rights in Russia.Judge Oleg Nefedov ordered that "the international LGBT movement and its subsidiaries be recognised as extremist and their activities banned from the territory of the Russian Federation", according to AFP correspondents on the ground.Mr Nefedov said that the ban would come into force "immediately".The hearing took place without defence counsel, as no organisation bearing the name "international LGBT movement" exists in Russia, and behind closed doors as the case was classified as "secret".In mid-November, the Russian Ministry of Justice called for the "international LGBT movement" to be described as an "extremist organisation" and banned, without clearly saying which organisation it was targeting.Any public activity associated with what Russia considers to be "non-traditional" sexual preferences could now be deemed "extremism", a crime punishable by heavy prison sentences.Until now, LGBT+ people risked heavy fines if they engaged in what the authorities called "propaganda", but not imprisonment.In recent years, Russian propagandists and politicians have increasingly referred to homosexuals as "paedophiles" and claimed they are part of an insidious attempt to "westernise" Russian society.The situation is particularly dire in the Caucasus republic of Chechnya, where gay men in particular face imprisonment, torture and murder at the hands of police.
