The event, held last month at the 3 Dollar Bill gay bar in Bushwick, drew over 1,000 attendees and featured 10 drag performers lip-syncing and acting out exaggerated parodies of high-profile right-wing personalities.
Organizers billed it as “I Want You for Turning Point U.S. Gay,” and said it was a “Right-Wing Parody Show for Charity.”
The name, of course, was a deliberate jab at the conservative organization Turning Point USA.
Lead organizer and performer Kiki Ball-Change, who portrayed Melania Trump, defended the show as political satire.
“The goal isn’t to diminish women, it’s to challenge power, expose the blatant hypocrisy, and create space for audiences to laugh, think, and respond,” Ball-Change said.

The organizer also stated that “drag has always been political” and framed the night as a response to what they called “repressive, authoritarian anti-LGBTQ+ policies.”
