Ron DeSantis' Undercover Cops Found Nothing Wrong With Christmas Drag Show

Ron DeSantis sent a group of undercover police officers to "A Very Drag Queen Christmas" this past December to try and catch the performers engaging in "lewd" behavior. The consensus among the officers was that there was nothing wrong with the performance, but the DeSantis administration is still trying to strip the venue of their liquor license which will likely run them out of business. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains what's happening.

Over Christmas time, Florida, governor Ron DeSantis sent a few of his undercover officers to the Orlando Plaza live theater to watch a very drag queen Christmas. Now, it's not because he thought those officers needed a night off and wanted them to go have fun. He sent the undercover officers to the Orlando Theater to watch a very drag queen Christmas to get documentation of all the lewd and the cous behavior happening on that stage. So what happened? What did those undercover agents find? Nothing. They didn't see anything objectionable. Here's what they said. Besides some of the outfits being provocative, bikinis and short shorts, agents did not witness any lewd acts such as exposure of genital organs. So DeSantis sends these undercover officers down there, says, all right, you get all this information, we're gonna bust 'em cold. So they sit through the performance and like, well, short shorts, I don't know about that, but I guess it's okay.

They go back to DeSantis like, yeah, we got nothing, man. There's nothing bad about it. And DeSantis said, well, thank you for doing that. However, I'm still gonna strip this theater of their liquor license, which will of course effectively put them out of business because that is where a large chunk of their income comes from. So he is punishing a theater for doing nothing wrong, even as his own officers of the state say, nothing bad happened. They didn't do anything wrong. And DeSantis says, screw it. I need more ammunition for my culture war. So by God, I'm gonna do it. This man, this little fat dictator down here in the state of Florida is drunk on power, and he has turned us into a completely fascist state. And I'm not saying that lightly. I'm not saying that only because I dislike him. I am saying that because we are living in a police state, it's not just the fact that he's punishing them for a very drag queen Christmas, it's the fact that he's sent undercover officers there in the first place. That's the terrifying part. Where else is he sending these officers? Where are they? Are they out on the streets looking for transgender individuals to card them and make sure they're not under the age of 18? Does he have agents attending every drag show in the state every night? Does he have agents patrolling the halls of our schools to make sure teachers aren't teaching c r t and that they don't have any undocumented books on their shelves? That's the hell that we are living in down here in the state of Florida, and it's

100% because of Ron DeSantis and our Republican controlled legislature that has aided and abetted and enabled this little fascist dictator that now controls every aspect of our lives down here.
