This is Rear Admiral Donnelly, who for two years allowed one of his sailors to give such performances

The Department of Defense under Trump has just withdrawn the promotion of a Rear Admiral who allowed drag queen shows for years aboard a vessel he commanded.
This is Rear Admiral Michael Donnelly, whom Trump had nominated to lead the United States Seventh Fleet on June 18. Based in Japan, this fleet is one of the most prestigious in the U.S. Navy and with the largest force deployment abroad.
Under Donnelly's command of the aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan, a lower-ranking sailor was allowed to perform as a drag queen under the name "Harpy Daniels" at events sponsored by the Navy itself.

The sailors on board reported their captain's full complicity and responsibility in the actions of his subordinate. According to these witnesses, for Donnelly, being flexible with these acts was part of his "military leadership."
The events took place between April 2016 and August 2018, with the degeneracy applauded by the Democratic press. Military Times, for example, even published images of the sailor performing.

A Trump ally, key in the discovery
It was thanks to the campaigncarried out by Alabama Senator and close Trump ally, Tommy Tuberville, that these unpleasant acts promoted from the highest levels of the political sphere came to light.
In this effort, Tuberville began blocking the officers Biden nominated to fill high-ranking military positions as a method of denouncing the progressive reforms that the Democratic leadership was promoting within the armed forces.
Among those commanders whose promotion was halted in 2023 was Donnelly, where at that time there were already allegations labeling him as responsible for funding and promoting drag shows within the military.
