The Biden administration has given nearly $4.6 million to help foreign groups promote LGBT projects like drag shows and pride parades.
Advocacy groups from at least 55 foreign nations have received millions from the Biden State Department to fund a range of initiatives aimed at bolstering the LGBT community and spreading its ideology into the mainstream, according to a Washington Free Beacon review of federal spending databases.
In addition to funding LGBT activism across the world, the administration has allocated millions to fight climate change in various countries and teach gender studies in war-torn nations like Iraq.
The State Department told the Free Beacon these programs help create "a world that is safer and more prosperous for all." But critics accuse the Biden administration of wasting millions in taxpayer funds on far-left causes that do little to actually strengthen American diplomacy abroad. "There was a time when America's most recognizable exports were baseball and apple pie. But now, under the Biden administration, we're subjecting the rest of the world to drag queens and childhood sex changes," said Terry Schilling, president of the American Principles Project.
Since 2021, the Biden administration has funded at least 84 separate LGBT advocacy projects in 55 countries, with budgets ranging from as little as $5,000 to more than $1.5 million, according to the federal government's spending database.
In 2022, $32,000 in taxpayer cash was awarded to a group in Peru so it could create an LGBT comic book.
The Biden administration "Seems to think that a mixture of lecturing governments and injecting money into local activism will suddenly change that. So far, that doesn't seem to be working."
