Caitlyn Jenner Called Out For Hypocrisy After Whining About Trans Day Of Visibility

The trans conservative joined the chorus of right-wingers who cried foul over Trans Day of Visibility falling on Easter—and was quickly slammed for her hypocrisy.

Transgender conservative Caitlyn Jenner was called out for her hypocrisy after she joined the chorus of right-wingers who've cried foul over the Transgender Day of Visibility falling on Easter.

In his presidential proclamation for this year, President Joe Biden celebrated the Transgender Day of Visibility as an occasion to recognize the remarkable "courage and contributions" of transgender individuals in the United States.


Describing transgender Americans as integral members of the nation, the proclamation emphasized their entitlement to "the same rights and freedoms" as every other citizen, including the "fundamental freedom" to express their true selves.

What right-wingers have not noted is that the Transgender Day of Visibility, which originated in 2009, occurs each year on March 31. In contrast, the date of Easter varies from year to year, as it is determined by a lunar calendar.

Jenner—who came out as transgender woman in 2015—lashed out at the Biden administration regardless, writing:

"I am absolutely disgusted that Joe Biden has declared the 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’."

You can see her post below.

However, her attack is an about-face from her previous remarks about the commemorative day given that on March 31, 2017, she posted a photo of herself flanked by other trans women that she captioned:

"There's no better visibility than with sisters by my side."

You can see her post below.

Jenner's hypocrisy was swiftly called out.

Despite her identity as a trans woman, Jenner has allied herself with the anti-trans right and consistently advocated for anti-trans legislation and policies. She has asserted that trans women are not authentic women, endorsed anti-trans sports bans, and criticized what she perceives as "radical gender ideology" making its way into classrooms.

Her complaints about Biden's proclamation mirrors a similar statement issued by House Speaker Mike Johnson, who said the White House had "betrayed the central tenet of Easter — which is the resurrection of Jesus Christ."

Johnson called the proclamation "outrageous and abhorrent," a remark that prompted Georgia Democratic Senator Raphael Warnock to criticize him because "Jesus centered the marginalized," communicating that Johnson's words are the polar "opposite of the Christian faith."

Last month, Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins claimed that food prices were coming down, even as the Consumer Price Index shows grocery costs rose 0.7% in December. Beef, which Rollins elevated near the top of the food pyramid in the dietary guidelines she recently unveiled, increased 1% over the month and was up 16.4% compared with a year earlier.
