FAKE NEWS: Disgusting Hit Piece Falsely Claims MFCR Chair Brandt Siegfried Is A Predatory Drag Queen

Few things surprise me these days.

However, reading Shane Trejo's latest article in RightMichigan on Monday, I was stunned and extremely disappointed. 

"Article" is a generous term for whatever it is. As I thought about things more, it really started to anger me.

Shane is a friend, a good guy who is not afraid to call people out, and I almost always enjoy his work. 

Not this time. No, this article was straight out of a phony CNN "report."

The headline? "Drag Queen Story Hour…Starring the New Leader of the Michigan College Republicans?"

Wow. That doesn't sound good, right? What the hell is going on here?

Turns out, nothing. As our President says, "we call this FAKE NEWS!"

The big reveal turned out to be a hoax, a dud. It was on par with Al Capone's vault, a nothing-burger Robert Mueller would be proud of.

The blockbuster "scandal" turns out to be a derpy video from a high school talent show!

Brandt Siegfried performed a SHANIA TWAIN song with a girls shirt on. No nudity, no little kids, no crotch grabbing, no iffy touching or questionable movements, nothing inappropriate whatsoever. 

Even Ed Sullivan would have approved! This easily could have been your son, grandson, or friend on a high school stage.

The title of the video included is an outright lie, "Michigan College Republican Chairman Does Drag Queen Sex Dance."

What? No, he didn't.

Trejo also falsely claims that "Under the leadership of people like Siegfried, conservatives will be arguing for the “right” for transgender drag queens to groom and molest children at libraries in no time."

It's not easy to win a libel case, but that line would help Siegfried, who attends Hillsdale, procure a winning judgment, no doubt about it. This is a sickening, Alinskyesque hit piece that has no bearing in truth, or reality.

 I am appalled and disgusted Shane would take a real issue-predatory drag queen culture being pushed on children-and cheapen it with this lame political attack.

The only reason this story was published is because Siegfried's detractors didn't have the votes to beat him last weekend when he became Michigan Federation of College Republicans President. Hell, they didn't even have a candidate to run against him. Weak!

Shane should delete this trash heap, and if he won't, Jason Gillman, the publisher of Right Michigan, should tell him to host it elsewhere.

Predatory drag queen culture that victimizes children is seriously harmful. To compare Brandt's Shania Twain song to those who actually prey on kids only emboldens real predators. It also makes Conservatives look REALLY stupid.

As Greg Maley commented on Facebook, "Why is dancing to Shania Twain bad? It didn’t seem that bad. We should be focusing on helping to re-elect President Trump .I’ve been a conservative my entire life and there’s nothing wrong with having fun here and there."

Fun, like Brandt had. Fun, like Rudy and President Trump in this drag sketch:

Using Shane's logic, Rudy is a predatory drag queen, and President Trump is cheering him on, enabling him! If it sounds like bullshit, that's because it is.
