White House joins Bluesky, immediately roasts Democrats with sizzle reel of Trump's first 9 months | Fortune
"The first post included mentions of the administration's executive order renaming the Gulf of Mexico, a doctored image of Democratic House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries adorned in a sombrero with a faux mustache, and stream of photos and video from other big moments in the early going of Trump's second term. "What's up, Bluesky?" the White House said in a message accompanying the video."
""We thought you might've missed some of our greatest hits, so we put this together for you. Can't wait to spend more quality time together!" Disgruntled X users began flocking to Bluesky after billionaire Elon Musk took over Twitter (now known as X) in 2022, and the platform reported a surge in new users late last year. It remains small compared to more established online spaces such as X, but it has emerged as an alternative for those looking for a different mood."
On Friday the White House created a Bluesky account and posted an inaugural sizzle reel compiling the administration's memes, trolls and messages from President Donald Trump's nine months back in office. The post included references to an executive order renaming the Gulf of Mexico, a doctored image of Democratic House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries in a sombrero with a faux mustache, and a stream of photos and video from early moments of Trump's second term. The post was captioned with a cheeky greeting to Bluesky users. The Department of Health and Human Services and the Department of Homeland Security also launched Bluesky accounts. Vice President JD Vance joined Bluesky in June. Trump continues to use Truth Social and is the largest shareholder in the company that owns it.
