Proud Boy and religious extremists heeded the call from anti-LGBTQ groups and right wing media who want to shut down a "drag bingo" event in Katy, Texas. They've been met with resistance from community activists and antifascist groups.

NOW: A small religious group is confronting a group of anti-fascist activists who have gathered in defense of a “drag bingo” event outside the First Christian Church of Katy, Texas.

The same live streamer who said that the anti-LGBTQ group Protect Texas Kids doesn't have "Jew money" is in Katy, Texas. Proud Boys and other masked men are clearly visible in the stream.

The identity of one of the Nazis who was in Katy, Texas yesterday is known to activists and journalists. He was in Houston and Plfugerville as well.

The last tweet from the @TexasGOP was three days ago. That same day they put out an "ALERT" regarding a drag show in Pflugerville, Texas. Two days ago, Neo-Nazis were outside that drag show. One of them has been identified as Ronald Murray Junior. 1/

A local report by
@KHOU
captured an argument among anti-drag protesters. One of them is a Blaze TV contributor, Tayler Hansen, who has recently posted about his trouble passing a gun purchase background check. He attended J6 and has called for the J6 committee to be put in jail.

Blaze TV contributors Sara and Tayler have spent the last few months trying to surreptitiously record drag events for the purpose of spreading fear and stoking more hate against drag events. Now they complain when organizers catch on to their tactics.

As for Neidert, who runs the anti-LGBTQ organization Protect Texas Kids. She says she disavows the Nazis (who she baselessly claims are "feds") but she still hasn't disavowed a supporter who recently made a very antisemitic comment. He was also in Katy.

DISTURBING: last night Kelly Neidert spoke at a True Texas Project meeting with Texas Scorecard publisher Michael Sullivan. When asked about funding, Neidert said they dont have "George Soros money." Ali Jamal, a Groyper who attends her events, said "We don't have Jew money."

Neidert continues to deflect, says Patriot Front are feds (they're not). She conveniently hasn't mentioned the fascist street gang that attend her events, the Proud Boys, or the antisemitic Groyper who livestreams at her events and said her organization doesn't take "Jew money."

The same Blaze TV contributor who attended J6 and has recently complained about failing a gun purchase background check posted his video from inside the event in Katy, Texas.

Don Huffines, who has been escalating his rhetoric against drag shows and appears to be close to the folks who run the fascistic blog Current Revolt, is boosting a surreptitiously filmed video posted by a J6 attendee who says J6 committee should be in prison. Normal world.

Here's a fair-use screenshot from a video Hansen recorded outside the Katy, Texas drag bingo event. He interviewed Kelly Neidert while a Proud Boy is visible in the background.

bizarre. I wonder why Nazis attend her events, it's not as if her camera man has said "we don't have Jew money...."
