Fox News star Kayleigh McEnany called out President Joe Biden 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.
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.” Kayleigh speaking for all of America said:
