Right-Winger Gets Constitution Lesson After Urging Lizzo To Be Jailed For Inviting Drag Performers On Stage

After Matt Walsh called for Lizzo to be 'thrown in jail' for inviting drag performers to join her on stage at her Tennessee show, the First Amendment Twitter account clapped back.

Far-right pundit Matt Walsh was swiftly schooled on the First Amendment after he called for singer Lizzo to be "thrown in jail" for inviting drag performers to join her on stage at a Tennessee show.

Lizzo had drag performers on stage to protest against a new Tennessee bill which passed in February that criminalized public drag shows as "harmful to minors."


Tennessee is the first state to enact such a law this year, and it's received widespread backlash from the LGBTQ+ community and their allies.

In response to footage of Lizzo performing on stage with drag queens, Walsh suggested authorities should "Throw her in jail" for her act of defiance.

You can see Walsh's post below.

Lizzo invited several drag queens, including Vanessa Vanjie Mateo, Asia O'Hara and Kandy Muse from RuPaul's Drag Race to perform with her at the Thompson-Boling Arena on Friday, as an act of defiance. Lizzo is known for being a strong supporter of body-positivity, self-love, and LGBTQ+ rights.

Shortly after Walsh's outburst, he received a response from The First Amendment, a parody Twitter account dedicated to educating—and mocking—people who don't seem to understand the First Amendment of the United States Constitution and its protections.

For instance, to suggest Lizzo's right to free speech not be protected is to suggest the government should have the authority to shut down any and all speech it does not endorse, which would in itself constitute a violation of the First Amendment.

Additionally, Christian conservatives—like Walsh himself—nationwide have often accused the government of violating their First Amendment rights when not calling on the government to strip First Amendment rights from anyone they might happen to disagree with.

The First Amendment—Twitter user @USConst_Amend_I—responded to Walsh with the following message:

"Throwing Lizzo in jail for inviting drag queen performers with her on stage would violate me."

You can see the post below.

Yes, it's really that simple.

And people were equally as quick to criticize Walsh for understanding the most basic of concepts.







Lizzo isn't the only high-profile musician to take a stand against Tennessee's anti-drag law.

Last month, country music artist Maren Morris introduced her son to drag queens backstage at the "Love Rising" benefit concert in Nashville, where she performed alongside drag queen Alexia Noelle Paris in an act of defiance.

Morris was praised for daring state authorities to "f**king arrrest me" and saying her son loved being backstage "where all the queens were getting ready and doing their makeup."

Conservatives Predictably Outraged After Mattel Introduces New Barbie With Type 1 Diabetes

Conservatives lashed out at toymaker Mattel after the company introduced a new Barbie doll with Type 1 diabetes, including an insulin pump and blood sugar tracker—an action they say is "woke" while not understanding the difference between Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes.

Mattel revealed a new partnership with Breakthrough T1D— formerly known as the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation—to launch a Barbie doll that authentically represents people living with Type 1 diabetes. The collaboration, Mattel said, ensures the doll “truly captures the community,” including accessories that “accurately reflect the medical equipment” commonly used by individuals with the condition.

MAGA Influencer Charlie Kirk Called Out After Blaming DEI For High Death Toll In Texas Flooding Disaster

Turning Point USA founder and MAGA influencer Charlie Kirk was harshly criticized after he claimed the death toll in the flash floods that have devastated central Texas "would not have been as high if it wasn't for DEI," ridiculously suggesting that principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion were responsible.

Kirk's comments are reflective of President Donald Trump’s broader push to dismantle federal programs focused on diversity and inclusion—part of what he pledged in his inaugural address would be a campaign to stop attempts to “socially engineer race and gender into every aspect of public and private life.”
