Michelle Obama’s DEI Podcast Backlash: Jenn Pellegrino Pushes Back

AFPI’s Chief Spokesperson Jenn Pellegrino responded strongly to Michelle Obama’s recent podcast episode where the former First Lady addressed gender pronouns and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) culture. In her rebuttal, Pellegrino critiques what she describes as the mainstream media’s obsession with identity politics, warning it distracts from real issues facing American families—such as education, inflation, and national security. She calls for a return to common-sense values, biological truth, and policies that prioritize merit over social engineering.
