Trans Influencer Apologizes to Biden Over WH Flashing Incident

Transgender influencer Rose Montoya is issuing an apology for a controversial incident at the White House.

In a video posted on Twitter, Montoya addressed the decision to briefly go topless.

“In a quick moment of fleeting and overwhelming trans joy, I decided to do something unbecoming of the guest of the president at the White House lawn celebration,” the influencer said.

Montoya went on:

“I want to take this moment to apologize for the impact of my actions. I especially want to apologize to my black trans brothers and siblings, especially transgender women who are black. Because I understand that you all are constantly at a disproportionate level, impacted by the actions of others, and especially by anti-trans violence.”

Additionally, Montoya said, “I would also like to apologize to my family and friends who have been harassed.”

“And last but not least, I would like to apologize to the president, the White House, and the nation. It was also never my intention to create a situation that would lead to harassment and harm of myself and others, nor for trans joy like my little moment of trans joy to be weaponized by vile people of the opposition,” the influencer added.

A video surfaced on Monday night from Montoya’s TikTok account from the White House’s Pride event.

It showed the influencer interacting with President Joe Biden and stating, “It’s an honor, Mr. President. Trans rights are human rights.”
