U.S. Rep. Carolyn B. Maloney of New York, a Democrat who lists the gender pronouns “She/Her” in her Twitter biography, is publicly praising Drag Queen Story Hour, a program that features cross-dressers reading books to children.
“Across the country, books are being banned, which are depriving our nation’s youth. But thanks to @NYPL and programs like Draq Queen story hour, NYC’s next generation are getting a well rounded education about LGBTQ+ issues and gender identity,” Maloney tweeted on Monday.
BlazeTV host Elijah Schaffer of “Slightly Offens*ve,” responded by tweeting the word “GROOMER” in all caps, along with an emoji pointing toward the congresswoman’s tweet.
“Found another groomer outing themselves,” tweeted Steve Deace, of BlazeTV’s “Steve Deace Show.”
Jim Hanson used the hashtag “#OKGroomer,” and commented that, “Anyone who thinks Drag Queen Story Hour is a good idea for young kids Has no business being in charge of kids.”
While critics pounced on the congresswoman’s tweet, she fired back on Wednesday claiming that “the bigots are at it again in the comments.”
