Queens City Councilwoman Vickie Paladino (R-Whitestone) has been booted from the chamber’s mental health committee as punishment for her strident opposition to Drag Queen Story Hour.
“I was targeted. This was a retaliation,” the conservative firebrand told The Post — laying the blame squarely at the feet of Council Speaker Adrienne Adams, who she said gave in to pressure from progressives.
“As an individual she is a lovely lady but I really think she is being bullied … She is afraid of the progressive left,” Paladino said.
The freshman lawmaker was formally removed from the Committee on Mental Health, Disabilities and Addiction by a full vote of the Council on March 2.
Paladino, 68, has called the city-funded programs that bring fully-bedecked drag queens into public schools and libraries to read to and socialize with kids — often without the consent or knowledge of parents — “cultural indoctrination” and “child grooming.”
Drag queen appears to perform lap dance on student at Pride event with high schoolers
In a statement to Libs of Tik Tok, Forsyth Tech made no effort to apologize for the inclusion of underage teenagers: “Forsyth Tech is committed to being a place of promise for our students. In order to fulfill that promise, we have clearly spelled out our mission, vision and equity statements,” it read. The spokesperson also confirmed that this event was open to all students on campus, including high school students: “These students, like all college students, are open to attend any student event.”
Compare the following paragraph from the NBC article with all the denials you’ve heard from the left about how trans people aren’t groomers and there is NO EVIDENCE of that at all, it has NOTHING WHATSOEVER to do with kids, it’s juts about free adults in a democratic society making their own way and living how they want, in private, not bothering anybody, but preferring not to have a bunch of crazy, judgmental religious fundamentalists oppressing and harassing them.
Here’s what NBC reluctantly admitted:
The “coming for your children” chant has been used for years at Pride events, according to longtime march attendees and gay rights activists, who said it’s one of many provocative expressions used to regain control of slurs against LGBTQ people…. Last year, Gothamist reported, people at the Drag March chanted, “Ten percent is not enough: Groom! Groom! Groom!”
FOR YEARS. In other words, it should have been trivially easy for the fact-checkers and reporters to have found the “evidence” that children were involved, to some extent, in the “movement.” But somehow they couldn’t. Call it confirmation bias if you want to.
The current narrative, that these chants are only jokes meant to lampoon conservative critics, rings hollow. Try to think of one single time that the corporate media ever gave that kind of charitable interpretation to something a Trump supporter, or even the President himself, ever said.
That’s what I thought.
Sent nudes to a (probably male) student, huge advocate for LGBTQ and Gender Bending Grooming.
