A rightwing blogger accused a Black drag queen of exposing herself. Now the queen is suing.

An Idaho drag performer is suing a right-wing blogger for defamation after the blogger falsely accused the queen of indecent exposure during a Pride event this summer.

On June 11, Eric Posey, who performs as Mona Liza Million, performed at Coeur d’Alene’s Pride in the Park event. Blogger Summer Bushnell later posted a doctored video of the performance on her website, blurring Posey’s groin “to make it appear as if he exposed himself,” according to a press release from Posey’s lawyers.

According to a July 1 report by NBC affiliate KHQ, the Kootenai County Sheriff’s Office and Coeur d’Alene police received multiple complaints about the video, none of which came from first-hand witnesses of Posey’s performance.

After reviewing the original, unblurred video, the City of Coeur d’Alene Prosecuting Attorney’s Office released a statement saying, “The allegations of indecent exposure, or other crimes cannot be supported by the evidence. Therefore, prosecution is declined.”

Very exciting drag performance by Mona Liza Million in Coeur d'Alene, #Idaho in front of some of the many children in attendance at "Pride In The Park."

There seems to be some issue over the dollar bills between the MC, the kids and this performer. "Get your money girl." pic.twitter.com/mS0h9m6Vjj
