The White House hosted the largest LGBTQ event in its history on Saturday. The White House hosted an "all-American picnic" on the South Lawn to celebrate "America’s LGBTQ families" for Pride month.
President Joe Biden told the crowd on the South Lawn, "Today, I want to send a message to the entire community — especially to transgender children: You are loved. You are heard. You’re understood. And you belong."
Biden claimed, "For all the progress we’ve made, we know challenges still remain. When a person can be married in the morning but thrown out of a restaurant for being gay in the afternoon, something is still very wrong in America."

Biden slammed Republican-led states for passing laws prohibiting teachers from discussing gender or sexuality with young students, restricting sexualized drag queen shows in front of minors, and banning transgender surgery for underage children.
"When families across the country face excruciating decisions to relocate to a different state to protect their child from dangerous anti-LGTBQ laws, we have to act," Biden declared while standing on a stage decorated with rainbow colors. "We need to push back against the hundreds of callous and cynical bills introduced in states targeting transgender children, terrifying families and criminalizing doctors and nurses."
"These bills and laws attack the most basic values and freedoms we have as Americans," the president asserted.
Biden told the crowd that protecting LGBTQ rights around the world is a "top priority" for his foreign policy.

President Biden lauded the attendees for having "courage" and being "some of the bravest and most inspiring people" he's ever known.
Biden said of the LGBTQ families at the Pride month picnic on the South Lawn of the White House, "We all talk about courage. Well, I see more courage on this lawn than I’ve seen in any time in the recent past."
"But the thing about y’all is: You not only are about courage. You generate so much hope for people. Hope and light," he continued. "You enrich every part of American life: educators, entertainers, entrepreneurs, athletes, actors, artists, scientists, scholars, diplomats, doctors, service members, veterans, and so much more."
Biden proclaimed, "As I said — I mean this; I swear to God — you’re some of the most — you’re some of the bravest and most inspiring people I’ve ever known. And I’ve known a lot of good folks."
He added, "You set an example for the nation and, quite frankly, for the world."
Biden wrote on Twitter, "Today, the People's House – your house – sends a clear message to the country and to the world. America is a nation of pride."

President Biden delivered the Pride month speech as the balcony of the White House was draped with a "Progress Pride flag" with two American flags behind it.
Proudly displaying the "Pride Progress flag" from the White House in front of the American flag incensed conservatives on Twitter.
BlazeTV's Chad Prather: "This is DISGRACEFUL. Why is the AMERICAN flag surrounding the pride flag?? This nonsense has to end!!!"
TheBlaze columnist and "Fearless" host Jason Whitlock: "This man is allegedly a Catholic. He surely was taught the sin of 'pride.' Proverbs 16:5 'The LORD detests all the proud of heart. Be sure of this: They will not go unpunished.' 'A nation of pride.' What's next: 'A nation of lust, envy'"
TheBlaze columnist and podcast host Auron MacIntyre: "If anything the religious right greatly underestimated what would come next."
Former Trump advisor Stephen Miller: "America has been humiliated, debauched and debased. A warning about how civilizations unravel from within."
Ben Shapiro: "Not one American soldier fought and bled for this flag. Not one American taxpayer paid taxes to the government of this flag. Not one law has been passed under a government elected under under this flag. The ideological coup is complete."
Jeremy Boreing: "Government buildings should fly the flag of our nation, the flags of our military, the flags of the various states, and the flags of the nations of visiting heads of state. All other flags are inappropriate."
Dr. Jordan B Peterson: "And pride goeth before a fall."

How To Parent Through Pride Month
Families need a plan of action during pride month. My husband and I outlined how to encourage our children in the truth this June.School board members claim some teachers felt 'bullied' into displaying LBGTQ rainbow flags in classrooms
Members of a Maryland public school board claimed some teachers felt "bullied" into displaying LBGTQ rainbow flags in their classrooms after an LGBTQ group donated them, Fox News reported.
What are the details?
The Westminster chapter of Parents, Families, and Friends of Lesbians and Gays donated the smaller-sized rainbow flags to Carroll County Public Schools, and district staff members were encouraged to display them as support for the LGBTQ community, the cable network said.
School board members said at Wednesday's meeting that some teachers felt "bullied" into displaying the flag, and that the flag violates the district’s recently revised political neutrality policy, Fox News added.
"Our students are a captive audience and as such need to be protected from all political agendas, both from the right and the left," school board member Donna Sivigny said during the meeting, the cable outlet said. "I also respect the rights of teachers to work in a non-hostile work environment, deliver an effective lesson, and support all kids in the best way that they can, but we require that they do it in a politically neutral way that creates a safe space for every student in our schools. However, many teachers have reached out to me saying that they've been pressured or bullied to put flags in their classroom, and that's a problem that needs to be addressed."
School board President Kenneth Kiler added that "these flags were shoved down teachers’ throats to put on their desk — that’s not inclusive. That’s not the way it ought to be," Fox News noted.
School board member Tara Battaglia said use of the rainbow flag in schools represents "social advocacy" and is "political," the cable network said.
However, Superintendent Steven Lockard said during the meeting that the rainbow flags were available to any staff member who wanted them, and they weren't forced upon anyone, Fox News added.
Now what?
In the wake of the controversy, the school board voted to develop a new flag policy that may allow only the U.S. flag, Maryland state flag, and Carroll County flag to be displayed in classrooms, Fox News said.
"We support the board’s decision to revisit the flag policy and fully back the recommendations by its members to restrict the use of flags/symbols to the U.S., Maryland state, and county flags," local group Concerned Parents of Carroll County said in a statement to Fox News. "The coordinated effort by our school system to make every classroom a billboard for political and social justices causes was a step too far that disrupted the learning environment and divided our community. Teachers and parents alike want a returned focus on providing an academic education to our students."
