The National Endowment for the Arts released its latest round of grants, with new taxpayer-funded art such as Macbeth with zombies, cowboy poetry, a play about privilege, and a traveling gay men’s chorus.

This year’s grant will support the “world premiere of Monique Jenkinson’s ‘Delicate Material,’ which questions how society views gender and misogyny.”

“Fauxnique made herstory as the first cissexual female to win a major drag pageant,” according to Jenkinson’s website.

Other projects on gender identity and sex include the play Trans Scripts about six men who are now women, costing $50,000.

All the snowflakes were given the go-ahead by Pelosi. She said (paraphrase) ‘you will no longer have to work at a job you hate, just to get health care. We will take care of you’. They believed her and the NEA has been underpinning her statement. The NEA needs to fall by the wayside. The taxpayers don’t need to be funding vulgar, anti-Christian, etc., ‘art’. Period.

Trump should instruct Stallone that there will be no funding for these ludicrous “art” projects. It’s ridiculous to spend tax payers’ dollars for what normally would barely pass as street performers working for tips.

Don’t federal funds go along with laws including racial laws. So I guess on some items of required for all different to be represented of differerent all
People live affirmative action and girls sports used by boys. But other federal funds spewing racist and non inclusive activities are permitted. Crazy
