"The White House posted a message to X that read JUSTICE THE AMERICAN WAY and included a video that smash-cut between over a dozen film and television clips, along with a jacked-up electronic track and some real bombing footage. It begins with Robert Downey Jr.'s Iron Man character Tony Stark intoning Daddy's home!"
"While entertainment companies have been leery of defying Trump of late, many Hollywood artists and musical acts have been vocal about asking or demanding Trump not use their work in order to promote his policies and actions."
The White House released a video on X featuring a compilation of Hollywood movie and television clips interspersed with actual bombing footage, set to electronic music. The video included iconic scenes from films like Iron Man, Gladiator, Top Gun, and Breaking Bad, alongside quotes from fictional characters and real military personnel. The compilation culminated with war footage and references to victory. This follows previous criticism of the administration for similar content mixing video game footage with actual military operations. Entertainment companies and Hollywood artists have expressed concerns about unauthorized use of their work for political and military promotion.
