Photo appears to show Sen. JD Vance wearing drag in law school



A photo has been making the rounds online purportedly featuring vice presidential candidate JD Vance dressed in drag while attending Yale Law School.

A photo shared on X appears to show the Republican senator from Ohio sporting a blonde wig, a skirt and 5 o’clock shadow.

Vance’s campaign didn’t deny the photo’s authenticity or offer any further comment on the photo that’s since gone viral when approached by The Daily Beast.

Travis Whitfell, an adjunct professor at Yale who attended school there at the same time as Vance, took responsibility for circulating the unconfirmed snapshot, saying it came from a classmate. It’s believed to have been taken at a 2012 Halloween party.

Civil rights groups GLAAD and Human Rights Campaign have taken issue with Vance’s position on LGBT issues, citing specifically the Protect Children’s Innocence Act he proposed to deny transition-related medical care to minors.

He also ran afoul of many women recently when video of him mocking “childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives” during a 2022 interview with far right-wing pundit Tucker Carlson resurfaced online.
