USA - “I wanted my children to not sit at a desk for 7-plus hours each day…” Now, this is a mom that gets it! More and more mothers are understanding their role in the home and the impact it plays on their children and later on in society. One such mother was a school principal, but quit her job in order to invest in her family and, in her word, “raise thinkers.” Merging her children’s learning with their land and home, she has created an immersive “real world” educational experience based on her kids’ unique needs. I wanted my children to focus on progress and not perfection. I wanted to raise thinkers and leaders, not followers and workers.”

USA - At the DC pride parade last weekend, children were watching nearly naked men dressed in fetish gear from a designated family-viewing area. Having a ‘family-viewing area’ at a gay pride parade makes no sense because they are going to see the same thing as everyone else... But this is the agenda of the alphabet mafia. They want to groom children into this garbage so they’ll either think it’s totally normal or something they should pursue. That’s why they are okay with children seeing this filth, just like they are okay with children seeing disgusting drag shows.

USA - O’Keefe Media Group hit by massive DDoS and Email attacks following Blackrock exposé. Tuesday was huge for O’Keefe Media Group. Then, it turned south in a hurry after James O’Keefe and his team ruffled some pretty powerful feathers.

GERMANY - The tables were packed at the Waldhaus, a restaurant on the wooded outskirts of an east German town, as the regulars — workers shaking calloused hands, retirees clutching purses in their lap — settled in for a pub gathering of the far-right Alternative for Germany. But the die-hards worry Germany’s political leadership less than people like Ina Radzheit. An insurance agent in a flowered blouse, she squeezed in among platters of schnitzel and frothy beers for her first visit to the AfD, the German initials by which the party is known.

USA - The International Monetary Fund (IMF) is working on a platform that would allow various central bank digital currencies (CDBCs) to interoperate on a global scale, which comes amid a broader push toward cashless societies and concerns about risks to freedoms. IMF managing director Kristalina Georgieva told conference participants on Monday in Rabat, Morocco, that the transnational agency is developing a global platform for central bank controlled digital currencies. “CBDCs should not be fragmented national propositions… To have more efficient and fairer transactions, we need systems that connect countries — we need interoperability,” Georgieva said. “For this reason at the IMF, we are working on the concept of a global CBDC platform.” Georgieva said the IMF wants central banks to reach a consensus on a common global regulatory framework for digital currencies that would give global adoption a major boost.

USA - The US and Russia must find a way to resume dialogue as good bilateral relations are vital for both countries, Suzanne Massie, a scholar of Russian history who advised the administration of Ronald Reagan in the 1980s, has told RT. Massie, who is considered to have played an important role in efforts to end the Cold War, said in an interview on Tuesday that her desire is now to help Washington and Moscow start talking again. “I believe that we [the US] need Russia, and Russia needs us,” Massie argued. The two countries “should go and find a way to get back to discussing something else besides war,” the former adviser insisted, referring to the conflict in Ukraine. Russia has described the fighting in the neighboring country as a “proxy war” waged by the Americans and their allies against Moscow. “It’s a lot easier and a lot cheaper [to talk] than to use weapons,” the 92-year-old added.

UK - A teacher who berated a pupil over a classmate who 'identified as a cat' refused to comment yesterday when confronted by the Mail. The video, filmed by a pupil at Rye College, includes a heated exchange in which the disgruntled teacher says the youngster needed a 'proper educational conversation about equality, diversity and inclusion'. It begins with the teacher asking the pupil: 'How dare you? You just really upset someone, saying things like [you] should be in an asylum.'

UK - Schools are allowing children to identify as cats, horses and dinosaurs - and teachers are 'failing to question them', it was claimed today. There was widespread outrage earlier this week when a 13-year-old girl was branded 'despicable' by her teacher for rejecting her classmate's claim that she identified as a cat. Now further stories are emerging of pupils who identify as animals with very human characteristics - often known as 'furries'.

UK - A girl who detransitioned after deciding to identify as a boy and undergoing a mastectomy at age 15 has blamed professionals for letting her go ahead with the procedure. Jasmine, who was a patient at the controversial Tavistock transgender clinic, says her decision to transition to male was a 'mistake' and she now feels like a 'mutilated experiment gone wrong', The Telegraph reported. She was reportedly referred to the London-based clinic by a trans charity and only saw professionals three times. Jasmine also claims she was referred to be prescribed cross-sex hormones and put on the waiting list for a mastectomy after her second appointment.

USA - The Satanic Temple (TST) announced last week that it is raising money to host a “Let Us Burn” music tour at state capitols.

CHINA - Tony Blinken made this announcement from mainland China, “We do not support Taiwan independence.”Tony Blinken: “On Taiwan, I reiterated a longstanding US ‘One China’ policy. That policy has not changed. It’s guided by the Taiwan Relations Act, three joint communiques, the six assurances. We do not support Taiwan independence. We remain opposed to any unilateral changes to the status quo by either side. We continue to expect the peaceful resolution to cross-state differences.” This was a quick turnaround from Biden’s promise to use US troops to defend Taiwan from China in September, 2022 and back in May 2022.

CHINA - Stable relations between China and the US are vital for the international community, which doesn’t want to choose sides between the two countries, Chinese President Xi Jinping said during a meeting with US Secretary of State Antony Blinken in Beijing on Monday. “Planet Earth is big enough to accommodate the respective development and common prosperity of China and the US,” Xi told Blinken, according to a statement by the Chinese Foreign Ministry. The Chinese leader said that the world is interested in “generally stable” ties between Beijing and Washington, because “whether the two countries can find the right way to get along bears on the future and destiny of humanity.”

USA - Liberals who cheered when a Michigan city elected America's first Muslim-majority city council are now voicing a "sense of betrayal" after the council voted to ban LGBT Pride flags from city property. In 2015, Hamtramck, Michigan - a Detroit suburb and former Polish and Ukrainian enclave - put itself in an international spotlight when Muslims were elected to four of six city council positions. As the Guardian recounts, liberals rejoiced: "They viewed the power shift and diversity as a symbolic but meaningful rebuke of the Islamophobic rhetoric that was a central theme of then-Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s campaign."
