Under the Biden Administration, the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) has consistently prioritized Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, at the expense of military readiness and taxpayer dollars. Recently, the U.S. Navy revealed that it had approached one of its sailors, a “drag queen influencer,” to serve as a “Digital Ambassador” with the goal of helping military recruitment. On his Instagram bio, the sailor claims to have danced in drag for service officers on several occasions.
U.S. Senators Marco Rubio (R-FL) and Steve Daines (R- MT) introduced legislation to stop the DoD from using taxpayer funds or taxpayer-funded facilities to host drag queen performances.
“The DoD needs to get their priorities straight. Congress shouldn’t have to enact legislation telling them to use their taxpayer funding on military equipment instead of adult cabarets; that’s common sense. I’m proud to join Senator Daines in introducing this legislation to keep our military focused on what matters most.” – Senator Rubio
“Our military’s mission is clear: to provide the military forces needed to deter and win wars and to protect the security of our country and our allies. Allowing the DoD to become a branch of far-Left helping to promote their radical gender ideology by hosting and promoting drag queen performances is a threat to our national security and gross misuse of taxpayer funds. This must be stopped immediately.” – Senator Daines
Senators Tom Cotton (R-AR), Kevin Cramer (R-ND), and Ted Budd (R-NC) are also original cosponsors.
Specifically, the bill :
Prohibits the use of any DoD funds or facilities from being used to host, advertise, or support adult cabaret performances.
Flashback… Senator Rubio has continuously spoken out against the Biden Administration’s misguided prioritization of woke ideology over military readiness. Last year, Rubio successfully pressured the Air Force to cancel “drag queen story time” at Ramstein Air Force Base in Germany.

RUBIO, DAINES Y COLEGAS PRESENTAN LEGISLACIÓN QUE PROHÍBE USO DE FONDOS DEL DEPARTAMENTO DE DEFENSA PARA SHOWS DE DRAG QUEENS
Bajo la Administración Biden, el Departamento de Defensa de EE.UU. (DoD, por sus siglas en inglés) ha priorizado constantemente la Diversidad, la Equidad y la Inclusión a expensas de la preparación militar y usando el dinero de los contribuyentes. Recientemente, la Marina de EE.UU. reveló que se había acercado a uno de sus marineros, un “influencer drag queen”, para que sirviera como “embajador digital” con el objetivo de ayudar al reclutamiento militar. En su biografía de Instagram, el marinero afirma haber bailado como drag para los oficiales de servicio en varias ocasiones.
Los senadores estadounidenses Marco Rubio (R-FL) y Steve Daines (R-MT) presentaron una legislación para evitar que el Departamento de Defensa use fondos de los contribuyentes o instalaciones financiadas por los contribuyentes para albergar actuaciones de drag queens.
“El Departamento de Defensa debe aclarar sus prioridades. El Congreso no debería tener que pasar una legislación que les diga qué deben usar los fondos de los contribuyentes en equipos militares en vez de cabarets para adultos; eso es algo de sentido común. Estoy orgulloso de unirme al senador Daines en presentar esta legislación para mantener a nuestras fuerzas armadas enfocadas en lo que verdaderamente importa”. – Senador Rubio
Los senadores Tom Cotton (R-AR), Kevin Cramer (R-ND) y Ted Budd (R-NC) también son patrocinadores originales de la medida.
Específicamente, la ley:
Prohíbe el uso de fondos o instalaciones del Departamento de Defensa para albergar, publicitar o apoyar actuaciones de cabaret para adultos.
Retrospectiva… El senador Rubio se ha pronunciado continuamente en contra de la priorización errónea de la Administración Biden sobre la ideología woke. El año pasado, Rubio exitosamente presionó a la Fuerza Aérea para que cancelara una “hora de lectura de drag queen” en la Base de la Fuerza Aérea de Ramstein en Alemania.
