First lady Jill Biden got a rude awakening in her hometown.

The first lady was on hand at the NFL game between the Philadelphia Eagles and Dallas Cowboys in Philadelphia to promote the White House’s cancer initiatives.

But when her face was shown on the jumbotron she was not greeted as she may have expected to be in a liberal city she used to call home.

“Philly just BOO’d Jill Biden BAD. #FlyEaglesFly,” former NFL player Clay Harbor said.

“A source inside Lincoln Financial Field has informed me that Jill Biden was just mercilessly booed by Eagles fans when they put her on the screen,” Greg price said.

Some wondered why the video was so tough to find.

“If Melania Trump had been booed at a NFL game, she would be trending on Twitter. There would be video plasted on every social media platform in the nation. So where’s the video of First Lady Jill Biden being booed at tonight’s Eagles game?” Todd Starnes said.

“Social Media Communists are Censoring Jill Biden getting mercilessly booed at the Eagles game. Where is the video!!?? Somebody find it, and tag me!!!” another Twitter user said.

The first lady was either oblivious to the boos or her staff penned a tweet for her that simply did not mention it.

“It’s a special night for this Philly girl — I get to cheer on my @Eagles alongside these brave cancer survivors and their families. Thank you @NFL for raising awareness through Crucial Catch. We all have a role to play in ending cancer as we know it. #CancerMoonshot,” she said.

The first lady is not a stranger to hecklers. In July she felt the wrath of the people on the high gas prices that many people have blamed on her husband, President Joe Biden.

Gas prices are more complex than that but the president’s policies that are hostile to American energy production are believed by many to play a role.

And when Jill Biden visited a Connecticut ice cream shop when one person decided to heckle her, Fox News reported.

“Your husband is the worst President we ever had, you owe us gas money,” a man as she walked past him.

The first lady smiled, waved and said, “Thank you! Thank you for your support, thank you!”

Another heckler shouted “You suck!”

We are not experts but that does not sound like support.

Biden was in Connecticut with Education Secretary Miguel Cardona and Connecticut Gov. Ned Lamont as part of a national summer learning tour highlighting learning loss suffered by children as a result of coronavirus lockdowns.

“Discovered today that @FLOTUS and I share two common loves: teaching kids and ice cream,” Lamont tweeted along with pictures from the visit to the shop.

Arethusa Farms posted on Instagram that the company was “extremely honored and humbled” by Biden’s visit. 

Biden’s visit came the day before the White House revealed that her husband, President Joe Biden, tested positive for the coronavirus after returning from a trip to the Middle East.

That same month she was shredded on Twitter after comparing the uniqueness of Hispanic Americans to breakfast tacos.

And that was after she was ridiculed for attending and event with the word Latinx in its title, a word that it has been shown is not one that Hispanic people typically identify with.

She also butchered the word bodegas and mispronounced it is bogedas.

“[Raul Yzaguirre] helped build this organization with the understanding that the diversity of this community, as distinct as the bogedas of The Bronx, as beautiful as the blossoms of Miami, and as unique as the breakfast tacos here in San Antonio, is your strength,” she said.

The ridicule came immediately.

“Once again, Dr. Jill Biden butchers the Spanish language in furtherance of pandering to a client constituency (the org FKA National Council of La Raza). I hereby bless your timelines with Dr. Jill’s rendering of ‘bodega,’” Jorge Bonilla of the Media Research Center said.

“Imagine the regime media meltdown if a conservative called Hispanics ‘breakfast tacos’ like Dr. Jill Biden did at the Latinx Luncheon today. Democringe,” Christina Pushaw said.

“Liberal privilege is Jill Biden telling a group of hispanic people that they’re “as diverse as breakfast tacos” and not being canceled for it,” Tim Young said.

“From the same family that brought you, ‘I don’t want my kids growing up in a ‘racial jungle’ …and ‘You can’t go to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin’ Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent’ …comes today’s hot new racist hit, ‘Hispanics are as diverse as breakfast tacos,” he said.

“The president was asked about his son arguing with a hooker over how much crack he had after he incorrectly placed a mass shooting 100 years in the past as his wife giggled to herself celebrating the Hispanic contribution of breakfast tacos and the media will still shout ‘TRUMP!’” Chad Felix Greene  said.

“If Jill Biden is going to compare Hispanic Americans to breakfast tacos then she could at least use more inclusive language: It’s ‘TacX,’ Jill,” Rep. Dan Crenshaw said.

“So… Jill Biden just said Latinos are as unique as breakfast tacos and the ‘Bogedas’ of the Bronx. Whatever Joe has, it appears contagious,” Cabot Phillips said.

“The First Lady thinks Hispanics are as unique as… breakfast tacos. Maybe that’s true of ‘Latinx’ people, but for real Hispanics, that’s actually kind of insulting,” Rep. Carlos Gimenez said.
