However, it seems that Manchester West High School in New Hampshire found a way to use the funds for a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/high-school-uses-biden-covid-funds-to-put-on-drag-show-performance-pay-performers\/\" title=\"School spends Biden COVID funds on drag show and performers.\">pride month event featuring <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/minnesota-teacher-praises-transgender-activist-sex-worker-in-front-of-middle-schoolers\/\" title=\"Minnesota Teacher Praises Transgender Activist, Sex Worker In Front Of Middle Schoolers\">drag queens<\/a><\/a>. Yes, you read that right.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cHelp is here with the American Rescue Plan,\u201d the site\u2019s banner headline announces. Below it are badly sketched illustrations as desolate, despairing and heartrending as Walker Evans\u2019 Great Depression photos, which link to pages that can help you get the necessary government-issued largesse.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The school\u2019s grant request to use the leftover funds from the pandemic giveaway was approved by Manchester Mayor Joyce Craig, a Democrat eyeing a run at the governor\u2019s mansion. However, for reasons that needn\u2019t be explained, this has caused what Newsweek charitably called \u201ca rift between some Republican and Democratic players.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Is This Really the Best Use of Taxpayer Funds?<\/h3>\n<p>New Hampshire Department of Education Commissioner Frank Edelblut is skeptical that this is what \u201cpandemic relief\u201d involves. \u201cIs this really the best use of taxpayer funds?\u201d he asked.<\/p>\n<p>Although LGBTQ+ events weren\u2019t specifically listed in the guidelines, cities had flexibility in determining the best use for the funds. Such events likely fell under \u201cresponding to the public health and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/bidens-mandates-for-increased-production-of-ethanol-are-wrong-headed\/\" title=\"Biden\u2019s Mandates for Increased Production of Ethanol Are Wrong-Headed\">negative economic impacts<\/a> of the pandemic,\u201d Newsweek noted.<\/p>\n<p>So, in other words, the poor LGBTQ2ABCBGB++ community at Manchester West High School was so \u201cdisproportionately affected\u201d by the pandemic they need a cool four grand for a pride month bash, including $500 for drag queens. And you\u2019re paying for it!<\/p>\n<h3>The Problem with Biden\u2019s Spending Spree<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, it\u2019s a drop of pork fat in the $1.9 trillion bucket that is the American Rescue Plan, but this is part of the problem with the Biden administration\u2019s spending spree: All of these packages contain a torrential downpour of lard, and the White House behaves as if emptying just one bucket of it is tantamount to Dickensian austerity.<\/p>\n<p>Federal funds for drag queens at a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/despite-insistence-by-democrat-politicians-and-medical-elites-empirical-evidence-does-not-conclusively-show-that-masks-reduce-the-spread-of-covid\/\" title=\"Despite Insistence by Democrat Politicians and Medical Elites, Empirical Evidence DOES NOT Conclusively Show that Masks Reduce the Spread of COVID\">high school<\/a> could be the most egregious example, but look a bit harder and you\u2019ll find some competition. And I promise you, none of that pork will be helping that poor, imaginary, badly sketched dad, holding his child in the air and wondering if he\u2019ll be able to make the rent payment next month.
