BREAKING NEWS – Washington, D.C. – Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Gen. Mark Milley were seemingly stumped by questioning from Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., who questioned the top military leaders about drag shows on military bases, during a House Armed Services Committee hearing.
Drag shows on military installations, which promoters say are designed to show support for LGBTQ service members, have increasingly made headlines, most recently in the case of a planned “Drag Queen Storytime” that was scheduled at Ramstein Air Base, Germany, but canceled amid GOP criticism of the event.
Minnesota Congresswoman Ilhan Omar stated that the Drag Queen Storytime, should go on at Ramstein Air Base. “It’s a good show, I’ve seen it,” she tweeted. “And to be sensitive to the community out there, local entertainers should be included in the show, especially Nazis.”
