Drag performer Meatball brought the house down with a routine where she tranformed from the GOP Rep. into his drag alter ego, Kitara Ravache.

Listen, there's art, and then there's *art*, and this article is about the latter.

The internet is losing its collective mind, in a good way, over drag performer and Boulet Brother's Dragula alum Meatball's latest performance.


But this was no glitz-and-glamor fashionista posing drag performance. This was an impersonation.

Of who, you ask? Dolly Parton? Diana Ross? Cher? Judy Garland?

Great guesses all, but nowhere near as great as the actual answer.

Put your hands together for none other than the current king of lies Republican New York Congressman George Santos!

In the first half that is, because halfway through Meatball transforms into Santos' drag alter ego—allegedly!—Kitara Ravache.

Name a more instantly iconic drag performance.

And the performance couldn't have been more perfectly timed—Meatball took to the stage at New York's Nightgowns just as some members of Santos' beloved Republican Party are trying to outlaw drag performances in certain states.

Drag him, Meatball!

Meatball has the internet in absolute hysterics with the brilliant performance, which opened with a clip of Santos himself denying his drag queen when asked about it by a TikToker, despite the fact there is photographic and video evidence of him doing drag.

From there, Meatball, dressed as Santos in his usual dress pants and sweater combo, lip syncs to "This Is Me" from the musical film The Greatest Showman.

As the song reaches its apex, Meatball-as-Santos hits the apogee of his performance too, tearing away his Capitol-approved business casual togs to reveal the red sequined gown Kitara Ravache wore for her now notorious performance in Brazil that Santos insists never happened.

Of course, he also insists he's the descendant of Jewish Holocaust survivors and was the captain of the Hunter College volleyball team, both of which are verifiably false, so...

Anyway, the internet is absolutely in love with Meatball for dragging Santos to filth.









It almost makes the whole sordid Santos affair worth it.

Hats off, Meatball!

MAGA Christians Rage After Being Asked Why They're Against Free School Lunches

With Christianity so closely tied to Republican President Donald Trump, the GOP, and Trump's MAGA movement, a person might assume a government controlled by MAGA Republicans would try to enact legislation based on the teachings of Jesus Christ.

Things like feeding the hungry, housing the unhoused, caring for the sick and the poor, welcoming the immigrant, and loving their neighbors. But MAGA is a manifestation of White supremacy and Christian nationalism, so MAGA Republicans at all levels of government have embraced the greed of the Evangelical Christian "prosperity gospel" that glorifies the rich and vilifies the poor.

With the midterms approaching, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. joined Republican Rep. Jen Kiggans in Virginia Beach to discuss healthcare. But when a reporter asked about measles deaths, a staffer apparently decided the nation's top health official had reached the limits of his job description.
