(Image via Twitter) Kari Lake, a former Phoenix TV journalist, left her job in 2021 — and that's when she apparently decided to do a 180 politically, joining the NRA and coming out strongly as a pro-Trump, pro-Big Lie and (lately) anti-drag queen Republican.
She is running for governor of Arizona on one of the most right-wing platforms in the country. Now that she has opened her mouth to demonize drag queens, claiming they're groomers who should be kept away from kids, her former friend Barbra Seville, a — spoiler alert — big ol' drag queen, is living up to her profession, and dragging Lake for her glib hypocrisy.
Seville posted at length about Lake's former affection for her and for drag: I've performed for Kari's birthday, I've performed in her home (with children present,) and I've performed for her at some of the seediest bars in Phoenix.
She's come to my parties and has been asked to leave because door people thought she was too intoxicated to remain on premises.
