White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said Thursday that the Biden administration unequivocally supports "fierce" transgender individuals who "fight back" against laws meant to protect children from physical harm and sexual ideologies.
Jean-Pierre described such legislation as "a dangerous attack on the rights of parents to make the best health care decisions for their own kids." She went on to declare, "LGBTQI+ kids are resilient. They are fierce. They fight back. They're not going anywhere. And we have their back. This administration has their back."
KJP sparked outrage after her comments as people noted this rhetoric comes less than two weeks after a mass shooting at a Christian school by a transgender ideologue – and as similar incidents of violence from the transgender community increase around the nation.
Here was some of the pushback to the KJP's rhetoric:
The White House has spent the days following the shooting pushing for laws that expand the transgender movement's access to children and restrict gun ownership.
Neither the president nor his staff have acknowledged that the Nashville shooting was an ideologically motivated terrorist attack carried out by a transgender individual who specifically targeted Christian children and staff at the school.
