Fact Check: Is Biden Administration Funding Drag Shows in Ecuador?
A Fox News Digital article published on Wednesday reported that the U.S. Department of State is “funding ‘drag theater performances’ in Ecuador to ‘promote diversity and inclusion'” in the region by awarding a $20,600 grant to a non-profit supported by the U.S. Embassy and Consulate in Ecuador.
Last time that I heard about the US promoting LGBTQ+ rights (pinkwashing), in another country, was when Luna Oil suspected that the US was sponsoring a color revolution in Vietnam. I remember a couple of years ago, the US Embassy in Tlsabi, and Open Society Foundations, were pushing gay pride parades in the country of Georgia (the majority of the people are Orthodox Christian). It’s been documented, In the past, that the USAID has partnered with OSF on pushing cultural issues. Ecuador seems to have good relations with Russia and China. Could the US be trying to overthrow Guillermo Lasso?! 🤷🏼♀️
