Michigan AG Says: "A Drag Queen For Every School."

/

“(You) know what is not a problem for kids who are seeking a good education? Drag queens.” Those were the words spoken by Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel at a summit in Lansing, hosted by the Michigan Department of Civil Rights.

“Drag queens are entertainment.” Nessel continued on, “And you know what I’ll say that was totally not poll-tested, I’d say this, ‘A drag queen for every school.’” The Detroit News posted the audio of Nessel’s speech.

"We need to take all communities in our state and lift them up and not tear them down.” This is a far cry from statements Nessel made when she launched her 2018 campaign. The AG made the case she was worthy of the Democrat nomination because she cannot show a penis in a professional setting, due to her not having one.

There has been a growing trend of mixing children with drag queens. The New York Post noted NYC spent over $200K in trans events. Earlier this month, a “family-friendly” event in Texas took place in a gay bar, with a neon sign in the back: “It’s not going to lick itself.”

After outrage and vows from GOP legislators to take action, California State Senator Scott Wiener expressed a desire to offer “Drag Queen 101 as part of the K-12 curriculum.” Wiener has received national notoriety for pushing legislation lowering penalties for knowingly exposing a sexual partner to HIV, and then lowering penalties for having anal sex with minors.

Pop culture has done its best to normalize drag queens, especially for minors. Disney Plus has featured drag queens in their “This is Me Pride Celebration.” Nickelodeon’s Blue’s Clues, which targets preschoolers, featured a drag queen hosting a pride parade. And that wasn’t the only time Nickelodeon has highlighted drag.

RuPaul once said drag isn’t meant to be mainstream. “It breaks the fourth wall, and it mocks our culture and identity: how much you have, where you’re from, your economic background. Drag mocks all of that. It’s the antithesis of mainstream.”

Dana Nessel may find drag to be entertaining, but given that drag is a mockery of femininity and womanhood, there are certainly better role models to read to children in libraries.
