TL;DR Summary

Republican lawmaker Matt Gaetz celebrated the cancellation of a drag show at Nellis Air Force Base in Nevada, after Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and Gen. Mark Milley intervened to stop the event, citing that it was not Pentagon policy to fund drag shows. Gaetz had previously grilled the top military officials about drag shows on bases at a House Armed Services Committee hearing in March. The cancellation of the event was hailed as a "huge victory" by Gaetz, who believes that drag shows should not be taking place on military installations with taxpayer dollars.
