The Biden administration’s declaration of Easter as the ‘Transgender Day of Visibility’ was a slap in the face to Christians across the nation.
The president decided to celebrate the transgender community on the holiest of days for Christianity—the Resurrection of Jesus Christ.
A statement from the White House read, “On Transgender Day of Visibility, we honor the extraordinary courage and contributions of transgender Americans and reaffirm our Nation’s commitment to forming a more perfect Union—where all people are created equal and treated equally throughout their lives.”
This statement came as Christians all over the world spent time reflecting on the sacrifice Jesus Christ made on the cross and the ultimate victory He won by overcoming death itself through His resurrection.
The president’s proclamation received massive backlash, including former president Donald Trump and celebrity Caitlyn Jenner.
Trump campaign press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, issued a statement prior to Easter saying, “We call on Joe Biden’s failing campaign and White House to issue an apology to the millions of Catholics and Christians across America who believe tomorrow is for one celebration only—the resurrection of Jesus Christ.”
Jenner, who is transgender, also condemned the president for his actions of using Resurrection Sunday as a day to focus on the LGBTQ community.

“I am absolutely disgusted that Joe Biden has declared he most Holy of Holy days – a self proclaimed devout Catholic – as Transgender Day of Visibility. The only thing you should be declaring on this day is ‘HE is Risen,'” Jenner wrote on X.
The assault against Christianity continued with the White House Easter Egg Roll, which did not allow for overtly religious symbols to be used the eggs. Further, the governor of New York decided to light up the city with pink, white and blue in honor of Transgender Day of Visibility.
The White House also released a short statement about Easter saying, “Jill and I send our warmest wished to Christians around the world celebrating Easter Sunday. Easter reminds us of the power of hope and the promise of Christ’s Resurrection.”
Acknowledging that Easter is a holiday alone is not enough to undo the damage the Biden administration has already made. Declaring a holiday that blatantly goes against the core tenets of Scripture on the biggest day of Christianity is completely blasphemous.
YouTuber Isaiah Saldivar confronted this spiritual issue head on:
“The president of the United States has made a mockery of Christianity,” Saldivar says. “This president is sticking the middle finger to God.”
Sean Feucht also posted a warning on Facebook with the White House statement on the proclamation of Transgender Day of Visibility.
“CHRISTIANS: This is your warning to completely separate yourselves from this demonic, blasphemous administration. They are evil,” Feucht wrote.
It appears as though the Biden administration has decided to deal directly with the devil. Saying you’re a Christian doesn’t make you one. Actions speak louder than words.
This is not the moment to be deceived. Jesus warned that deception would come in the end times, so we need to see that this rising deception is happening in front of us at this very moment. We cannot just simply accept everything we are told as good and true.
