GOP conman George Santos appears to have copped to his past as a drag queen performer by admitting to the photograph in question. Earlier this week, in Brazil, media reports surfaced that he had performed as a drag queen named Kitara many years ago.
“No, I was not a drag queen in Brazil, guys. I was young and I had fun at a festival. Sue me for having a life,” Santos told reporters at New York’s LaGuardia Airport, according to CNN.
The now-infamous lawmaker had just claimed previously that none of the following was true in any way.
In a tweet last week, Santos said the suggestion he was a drag performer was “categorically false.” The truth-troubled lawmaker is under numerous investigations for lying about almost every aspect of his life. He is also under investigation for alleged campaign finance violations on numerous occasions.
