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.[

nytimes.comThis is one in an occasional series of dispatches about life amid the war in Ukraine. KYIV, Ukraine — On a gray and rainy afternoon, about 35 people settled into velvety red seats in a small and stuffy underground movie theater.
Two carried rainbow umbrellas. When the lights went down, the cartoon images that flashed on the screen were a reminder that this was a unique moment in time: a soldier preparing for war — then kissing another soldier of the same sex.
The sold-out screening, a Ukrainian queer short film retrospective, was one of dozens held in Kyiv as part of the country’s first-ever queer film festival.
A landmark event in its own right, the seven-day event, which ends Wednesday, also took place during a war — one that rights advocates said has increased visibility and acceptance of the L.G.B.T.Q.

You can help restore never-before-heard songs from musician & pioneering AIDS activist Michael Callen
Larry Kramer for use in his groundbreaking play, The Normal Heart.Sadly, Callen himself succumbed to the disease in 1993, but left behind an undeniable legacy that has helped shape the empowered LGBTQ+ community of today.Despite his achievements and activism, Callen’s name is not one you hear much these days, at least not among younger generations. Which is why we’re thrilled to report on a new effort to restore some of his music—an opportunity to introduce his voice to new ears, so that his life and legacy can continue to be celebrated for years to come.Recently, Callen’s long-time collaborator and romantic partner Richard Dwokim has begun the process of remastering a collection of never-released songs from the musician’s archives, and has set up an IndieGoGo page to seek help with funding for the endeavor.“I wonder if they ever look down on me, my brothers and the world and think, Wow, I’m proud!”As Dwokim writes, prior to Callen’s passing in ’93, the two of them “worked furiously to record and mix four dozen songs.” Eventually 29 of those tracks made it to the double-album Legacy, which was released posthumously in ’96.“Thirty years after that frantic year of frenzied activity,” Dwokim continues, “it’s finally time for the remainder of Michael’s recorded output to be released.” While the IndieGoGo has already reached its initial goal of $6k—enough to master the full album complete packaging and production on a “couple hundred” physical CDs—there’s still a chance to donate and help preserve an important part of our queer history.
