This year, Transgender Day of Visibility falls on the same day as Easter, and Donald Trump doesn’t seem happy about that.
In a speech on Saturday, the original government’s plan implied that President Joe Biden was behind this accident, claiming that his presidency “formally proclaimed Easter Sunday as ‘Trans Day of Visibility.'”
Federal press secretary Karoline Leavitt wrote in the declaration that “we call on Joe Biden’s failing plan and the White House to issue an apology to the millions of Christians and Christians across America who believe tomorrow is just the day of the resurrection of Jesus Christ.”
The claim appeared to reference a statement released by Biden on Friday in which he “proclaims March 31, 2024, as Transgender Day of Visibility.”
In the speech, Biden urges all Americans to join us in advancing the rights and tones of transgender people throughout our country and to work toward abolition of violence and discrimination based on gender identity.
Trans Day of Visibility was established 15 years ago to honor the transgender and intersex communities, and it takes place on March 31 each year. A similar speech was released by the White House to mark the occasion on March 30, 2023.
Trump also reportedly addressed the White House’s apparent send-out to National Guard families Sunday for their annual Easter celebration, the Easter Egg Roll. In his speech from Saturday, Trump also referred to the guidelines for artwork.
According to Fox News, the rules stated that chicken styles submitted for the occasion “must not include any doubtful content, religious symbols, openly spiritual themes, or political political statements.”
The White House’s decision to forbid children from creating religious chicken designs for their Easter Art Event and fully designate Easter Sunday as “Trans Day of Presence” is “appalling and insulting,” Lake wrote in the speech. “Sadly, these are just two more examples of the Biden Administration’s years-long assault on the Christian faith.”
The White House did not immediately respond to HuffPost’s request to comment.
