First Lady Jill Biden has recently been under scrutiny after her "taco" remarks, comparing Hispanics to the said traditional Mexican food during a conference in San Antonio, Texas. Currently joining the number of people criticizing the first lady is ABC's "The View" host Whoopi Goldberg.

Fox News reported that Goldberg said, "you can hear the people going - what is she saying?" during the speech of the first lady.

"The View" co-host Sunny Hostin said that one of the senior producers of their show asked who wrote the speech, adding that Biden had many "high-level Latinas on her staff." Hostin went on to say that what the first lady did was a "racial stereotype," adding that it was an "unforced error."

Goldberg chimed in and offered advice to the first lady. She said they understood what she was trying to do but "just try not to do it again."

Guest host Ana Navarro thanked the first lady for "showing up" while also applauding U.S. President Joe Biden's move to award Raul Yzaguirre the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

Navarro also said that people should steer away from comparing Hispanics to tacos and enchiladas when talking about the Latino population.

The guest host also commended Yzaguirre for being granted the Presidential Medal of Freedom, wherein she said that he focused on bringing unity among the Latino population and understood that they are stronger as one.

Meanwhile, Biden's press secretary Michael LaRosa tweeted on Tuesday that the first lady "apologizes that her words conveyed anything but pure admiration and love" for the Hispanic population, according to another Fox News report.

Sen. Ted Cruz's communications adviser, Steve Guest, replied to the tweet, wherein he said that he is "sorry" that LaRosa had to tweet the apology.
