The White House may say President Trump represents a new hope — but Star Wars fans quickly pointed out that part of the White House's social media post celebrating Star Wars Day feels a little more Sith-style.
The big picture: The meme-heavy, provocative communications from White House pages, coupled with a new Drudge Report-style site for pro-Trump stories and the president's own social media stunts, have displayed a sharp shift in the official communications of the United States government.
President Trump said in an interview aired Sunday on NBC's "Meet the Press" with Kristen Welker that he'd give TikTok relief if a deal isn't struck during the already extended timeframe.
The big picture: Trump, who attempted to ban TikTok during his first term due to national security concerns, has pushed to keep the app alive in the U.S. despite bipartisan concerns about national security risks due to the app's ties to China.
