🌍 LGBTQ RIGHTS UNDER FIRE: Russia Crackdown, Iran Rumors & Global Backlash

What’s happening to LGBTQ people around the world right now? It’s more intense—and more political—than ever.

This week, Karel is joined by Canadian journalist Scott Jacobsen from The Good Men Project for a powerful global conversation on LGBTQ rights, repression, and visibility.

👉 A Russian journalist is fined for so-called “LGBTQ propaganda” as the crackdown escalates

👉 Donald Trump is reportedly briefed on claims about Iran’s new Supreme Leader—and the dangerous implications of sexuality rumors in that region

👉 From India to global trans rights, we break down what’s really happening—and why it matters now

This isn’t just news—it’s the reality facing LGBTQ communities worldwide.

We connect the dots, challenge the narratives, and bring you the stories that often get ignored.
