Former White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany dragged the Biden administration for essentially exporting left-wing cultural lunacy.
The Fox News co-host of “Outnumbered” took the administration to task over a report showing his State Department awarded a $20,000 grant to a cultural center in Ecuador to be used in part to host “drag theater performances” to promote diversity and inclusion.
The State Department awarded a $20,600 grant on Sept. 23 to the Centro Ecuatoriano Norteamericano (CEN), a non-profit organization supported by the U.S. Embassy in Ecuador, a report noted. The project started on Sept. 30 and runs until Aug. 31, 2023. It will include “3 workshops,” “12 drag theater performances,” and a “2-minute documentary,” the report continued.
That set McEnany off. “Because this makes sense,” she wrote on Twitter.
