President Joe Biden seemed to be shuffled away from a group of people Monday during the White House’s Easter Egg Roll when he was asked about Afghanistan.
Biden appeared to be answering questions about Afghanistan and Pakistan, saying “Afghanistan should be [inaudible] people free.” A person dressed as a giant Easter bunny walks up to the president, stepping in between Biden and the gaggle.
The bunny then appears to shuffle Biden away from the group.

“All of you, have fun today. Welcome to the White House, welcome to your house, and happy, happy Easter.”
The First Lady then begins waving before allegedly telling Biden twice to “wave.”
Jill Biden just prompted Joe Biden: “Wave…wave.”

The event dates back to 1878.
The White House transformed the South Lawn into a school community in line with the First Lady’s “EGGucation” theme. Guests could enjoy a reading nook, basketball and football and an egg hunt, according to The Hill.
