To call that drag is disingenuous, and I think most dudes at some have played around with costumes that were gender-bender.Straight couples do that all the time, Santos claimed.

Its definitely not drag.Like the self-loathing Santos, Vance has been consistently hostile to the LGBTQ+ community.Last year, along with Rep.

Clayton Countyruling, which found that anti-LGBTQ+ discrimination is a form of sex-based discrimination. He called the legal reasoning behind the decision a betrayal of social conservatives and traditionalists. Vance also opposes the Equality Act, legislation to include sexual orientation and gender identity in federal anti-discrimination laws.News of Santos own drag past in Brazil as a pageant queen named Kitara Ravache surfaced amid a tsunami of larcenous revelations about the Long Island Republican in 2023. The newly-sworn-in rep spent weeks denying the rumors before eventually owning up to his alter ego.He has even resurrected Kitara after 18 years! for hired appearances in Cameo videos to turn a quick buck.
