Life Is A Drag!

Kitara will soon become a U.S. Representative.

Rep. George Santos (R-NY) is facing more heat. He is the first drag queen in Congress. 

Santos has admitted to fabricating parts of his life story, including his university education and elements of his employment history.

The New York freshman lawmaker has a revealing past. It appears Santos was a Brazilian drag queen named Kitara. Wondering why he facing allegations of check fraud? I am going on the assumption, he was a transvestite prostitute and stole from a trick.

Well the New York Times wrote in November 2022 the bombshell about Santos fabricating about his past and it led to numerous Democrats and several Republicans calling for him to resign. Santos so far has refused to resign and House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) had gave him, Rep. Majorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) and Rep. Paul Gosar (R-AZ) committee assignments.

Santos so far has become more of a celebrity for Republicans than a distraction.

So photos emerged of Santos dressing in drag and some detail how he was aspiring to be a popular drag queen.

A 58-year-old Brazilian performer, who uses the drag name Eula Rochard, said she befriended the now-congressman when he was cross-dressing in 2005 at the first gay pride parade in Niteroi, a suburb of Rio de Janeiro. Three years later, Santos competed in a drag beauty pageant in Rio, Rochard said.

Another person from Niteroi who knew the congressman but asked not to be named said he participated in drag queen beauty pageants and aspired to be Miss Gay Rio de Janeiro.

Anthony Devolder was Santos other name.

Emails to the congressman's press office and a newly hired communications director on Wednesday evening were not returned.

Santos is the first openly gay Republican to win a House seat in Congress as a non-incumbent, but has positioned himself as a staunch conservative on many social issues.

He has backed Florida's "don't say gay" bill, which prohibits classroom discussion of sexual orientation and gender identity.

Republicans are increasingly denouncing drag shows and performers, claiming they are harmful to children.

Santos, responding in October to criticism of his support for the "don't say gay" bill, told USA Today: "I am openly gay, have never had an issue with my sexual identity in the past decade, and I can tell you and assure you, I will always be an advocate for LGBTQ folks."

Rochard said the congressman was a "poor" drag queen in 2005, with a simple black dress, but in 2008 "he came back to Niteroi with a lot of money," and a flamboyant pink dress to show for it. Santos competed in a drag beauty pageant that year but lost, Rochard said.

"He's changed a lot, but he was always a liar. He was always such a dreamer," Rochard said.

Santos admires Greene's dress. Maybe he'll wear it one day.

Santos even used a fake name. Gregory Morey-Parker, who previously lived with Santos, told CNN's Anderson Cooper on Tuesday that Santos used several aliases during their time as roommates.

Morey-Parker said he primarily knew Santos, who has listed his full name as George Anthony Devolder Santos, as Anthony Devolder.

But the former roommate said Santos also referred to himself as Anthony Zabrovsky, a name the now New York congressman reserved for a GoFundMe venture called Friends of Pets United. 

Zabrovsky and variations of the name are common among Ashkenazi Jews.

Morey-Parker told CNN: "He would say, 'Oh well, the Jews will give more if you're a Jew.' And so that's the name he used for his GoFundMe."

Santos' claim to be Jewish is one of many lies that have landed him in hot water in recent weeks.

During his 2022 campaign, Santos called himself a "proud American Jew" in a memo sent to pro-Israel groups, and he said in media appearances that his grandparents were Holocaust survivors. Santos even claimed his mom died on 9/11. His mom was in Brazil at the time.
