The first lady has revealed her true colors. She’s not the role model that the Left wants you to believe she is.
And Jill Biden’s latest disgusting comments have sent the White House into an all-out frenzy.
First Lady Jill Biden has lauded the opening ceremony of the Summer Olympics in Paris, describing it as a “spectacular” display despite the backlash it received for mocking Christianity.
Leading the U.S. delegation to the opening ceremony on Friday, Biden shared her enthusiasm during a brunch celebrating the upcoming 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles.
“It was spectacular,” Biden remarked. “The rain did not dampen our spirits. … Every step of the way, I was thinking to myself, ‘Oh my god, oh my god. How are we going to top this?’”
Drawing comparisons between the host cities, Biden acknowledged Paris’s iconic Eiffel Tower while highlighting Los Angeles’s renowned Hollywood.
“The magic of Hollywood that makes all dreams come true,” she said, while also adding, “It’s a city where new generations of dreamers shape our culture.”

This year’s opening ceremony, which included a variety of performances, sparked controversy due to a drag show parody of “The Last Supper” featuring Jesus Christ, his apostles, and the Greek god Dionysus.
House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) expressed his dismay on X, calling the scene “shocking and insulting to Christian people around the world who watched the opening ceremony.”

Mississippi-based tech company C Spire also responded to the controversy, announcing it would pull its advertising from the Olympics.
“We were shocked by the mockery of the Last Supper during the opening ceremonies of the Paris Olympics. C Spire will be pulling our advertising from the Olympics,” the firm stated on X.

NFL kicker Harrison Butker, who earlier this year criticized President Joe Biden for supporting abortion access despite his Catholic faith, joined religious leaders in condemning the performance.
In response to the uproar, Olympic organizers apologized to Catholics and other Christians who were offended by the ceremony.
“Clearly there was never an intention to show disrespect to any religious group. [The opening ceremony] tried to celebrate community tolerance,” said Paris 2024 spokesperson Anne Descamps. “We believe this ambition was achieved. If people have taken any offense, we are really sorry.”
Artistic director Thomas Jolly tried to explain the intent behind the performance, but instead went off on an odd tangent about diversity: “We wanted to talk about diversity. Diversity means being together. We wanted to include everyone, as simple as that.”
