GOP Virgina Lt Gov WinsomeSears told billmaher that he needed to 'read more' on the debate over drag queen story hours & performances for children. 'I get to decide what happens in my child’s life. Not you. Not the government. Not anybody,' Sears said.
Lt. Gov. Winsome Sears told HBO host Bill Maher that he needed to"read more" on the debate over drag queen story hours and drag performances for children.
"Bill, you gotta read more," Sears told Maher in a panel discussion Friday night on his show Real Time with Bill Maher.Maher's panel discussion with Sears and Tablet magazine columnist James Kirchick explored how schools were insisting"there is no such thing as sex," and it's become a"social contagion" and"trendy" to push the transgender issue.
Sears then explained her stance on the pressure of the transgender issue being put on children in schools and specifically pointed to drag queen story hours and live drag performances with minors in the audience. "I’m a parent. I’m a parent all day. I get to decide what happens in my child’s life," Sears said."Not you. Not you. Not the government. Not anybody. I don’t co-parent. I had this child. I’m responsible for this child. Anything happens to Little Johnny, you’re calling me as you should.""If I don’t want my child given lap dances at school by a drag queen, I don’t want it done. That’s happening," she said."I'm talking about as a parent. Forget the state.
"There is drag queen story hour. There are definitely drag queens reading to children," Maher interrupted."Bill, you gotta read more," Sears responded.Maher added,"I'm sure anything happens somewhere, but this is not a common thing. ... I've seen where a child was taken to a pub — which is not right either. ... but I've never seen it happen in a school.""These things are happening in the libraries? Oh my God," Maher laughed.
