Trump Reposts Unblurred Video of Muslim Kindergarten Graduates on Truth Social
Critics say the repost exposed about 21 children’s faces and fueled anti-Muslim harassment after the video singled out girls wearing hijabs.
- On Monday morning, President Donald Trump posted an unblurred video to Truth Social showing Muslim kindergarteners at Gateway STEM Academy in St. Paul, Minnesota, celebrating their graduation in hijabs.
- The right-wing X account End Wokeness originally posted the clip in June with the caption: "Public school in St. Paul, Minnesota. Every girl is in a hijab... in kindergarten." Trump then reposted the video and caption.
- Gov. Tim Walz responded Monday afternoon, stating the president was "attacking" a group of kindergarteners simply for what they were wearing to school.
- Media outlets described the post as "Islamophobic, weird, and creepy," while the comments section filled with calls by supporters to "deport the children and ban hijabs."
- Rep. Ilhan Omar previously warned such rhetoric carries real consequences for Somali American communities, as anti-Muslim discrimination complaints reached a record 8,683 nationwide in 2025.
