The Pentagon canceled on Wednesday a drag show scheduled to take place at an Air Force base in Nevada after Rep. Matt Gaetz (R., Fla.) flagged the event.
The show, which, per Gaetz, was billed as « family-friendly » and had no minimum age requirement, was scheduled to take place June 1 at Nellis Air Force Base. The Pentagon had previously denied that any taxpayer funds were used to organize such events, but in a May letter to Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin and chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley, Gaetz identified six drag shows, including the June 1 event, held or scheduled to be held at military installations.
