JUST IN: Republicans Suggest PBS ‘Grooming’ Children With Pride Post – The Hill

A group of congressional Republicans accused PBS on Monday of “grooming” children after “Sesame Street,” one of the nonprofit TV network’s flagship programs, shared a social media post recognizing Pride Month.

“On our street, everyone is welcome. Together, let’s build a world where every person and family feels loved and respected for who they are. Happy #PrideMonth!” the longtime children’s education show wrote in a post early Sunday on the social platform X.

The Republican Study Committee (RSC), a coalition of GOP House members whose membership is not public, responded to the post with a meme of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and the words “I am once again asking PBS to stop grooming children.”

The post has since been deleted.
