During Easter Sunday, President Joe Biden, recognized by @JoeBiden, issued a proclamation recognizing International Transgender Day of Visibility, sparking controversy among conservative and evangelical groups. Critics, including figures like Willie Wilson and organizations such as @BaptistLeaders, accused Biden of prioritizing LGBT issues over traditional Christian values on a significant religious day. This move has been interpreted by some, including Dr. Ron Rothenberg and commentators @TheLaurenChen and @PatrickChristys, as part of a broader shift in American evangelicalism away from orthodox theology towards what Dr. Ron Rothenberg describes as an 'unholy trinity' of Marxism, multiculturalism, and genderism. The reaction has been mixed, with some commentators and news outlets framing Biden's actions as a dismissal of Christian conservatism and an embrace of leftist activism. Christian nationalist pseudo-historian Tim Barton and @EJDionne have also weighed in, highlighting the controversy and division the proclamation has caused.

Christian nationalist pseudo-historian Tim Barton is outraged by "the perverseness of the Biden administration" for recognizing Transgender Day of Visibility, saying it's "despicable and evil" especially since they "did not do any kind of proclamation for Easter."

"The wild oscillation in the views of White evangelical Christians over a relatively short period suggests a kind of conversion that has little to do with faith," @EJDionne writes. https://t.co/FmkDuuejRx https://t.co/1wKiWsMjSx
Willie Wilson: On Easter, President Biden issued a proclamation recognizing International Transgender Day of Visibility. I do not have anything against people who identify as LGBTQ+, but this day should be kept sacred. https://t.co/v8IjjizzYG

'More and more Americans are waking up to how these leftist activist have really captured the White House.' @TheLaurenChen and @PatrickChristys discuss Joe Biden celebrating and making proclamations about "Transgender Day of Visibility" at the White House on Easter Sunday. https://t.co/JUSJgtadZt
In prioritizing the LGBT community over Christians on Easter Sunday, @JoeBiden made his distaste for faithful conservatives clear. Meanwhile, @realDonaldTrump has given the @GOP a roadmap on how to preserve American culture. My latest for @humanevents: https://t.co/Rmon0Q2dEV
