Governor Ron DeSantis' campaign shared a video highlighting his anti-LGBTQ+ bills. An expert told Insider the video is a "culmination" of DeSantis' "extremely homophobic" campaign. "They know exactly what they're doing," Caraballo told Insider. The organization previously threw its support at DeSantis when he signed his "Don't Say Gay" law. The DeSantis campaign and Pushaw did not respond to a list of questions sent by Insider.

☆ Ron DeSantis criticized over 'homophobic' video

WASHINGTON, July 1 (Reuters) - Gay Republicans criticized as "homophobic" a video posted by Republican presidential candidate Ron DeSantis' campaign highlighting rival Donald Trump's past statements in support of gay rights, and the former president declined at a rally on Saturday to respond to the attack. Florida Governor DeSantis' campaign posted the video on Twitter late on Friday, saying it marked the end of a month of LGBTQ+ pride celebrations. It was unclear who originally produced the video, which featured a montage of muscle-bound men, bolts of electricity flying from DeSantis' eyes, and activists lamenting what they characterized as his efforts to restrict transgender rights. Asked on Saturday for a comment on the video, Trump's campaign pointed to a tweet posted Friday night in which Trump adviser Jason Miller said "somebody's getting fired" over the DeSantis campaign's post. The Log Cabin Republicans, a conservative group that advocates for gay rights, said Republicans need to stand up against "radical Left gays" but that DeSantis had gone too far.

☆ Why George Santos is denying that he performed as a drag queen even as he leaves a litany of other questions unanswered
  + stars: | 2023-01-19 | by ( Bryan Metzger | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +5 min
Santos faces more pressing questions, but performing in drag could hurt his standing with fellow Republicans. "The most recent obsession from the media claiming that I am a drag Queen or 'performed' as a drag Queen is categorically false," Santos, who is gay, wrote on Twitter, calling the recent allegations an "outrageous claim." According to Rochard, who also provided photos allegedly showing Santos in drag, Santos performed under the name "Kitara Ravache." Nearly three dozen of Santos's Republican colleagues introduced a bill taking aim at drag queen story hours. But Santos is also the first non-incumbent gay Republican elected to Congress, and is one of just a handful of out gay Republicans to ever serve in Congress.
