Controversy Surrounds White House Eid al-Fitr Celebration Attendees.
President Biden told a White House guest to "hush up, boy" during an event marking the Islamic holiday Eid al-Fitr. The comment came after the guest continued to talk over him. The exchange drew laughs from the audience, but it comes just a few months after Biden sparked controversy by referring to Maryland's first black governor, Wes Moore, as "boy" in a speech. The reception was also marred by an incident involving a New Jersey mayor who was barred from the gathering by the Secret Service.
