The Trump administration has made a notable entrance onto Bluesky, a social media platform predominantly populated by left-leaning users.
In a move that can only be described as trolling, the White House shared a video compilation showcasing what it deemed the administration's "greatest hits."
The video, posted on the White House's Bluesky account, features President Donald Trump declaring, "My fellow Americans, our movement is far from over, in fact, our fight has only just begun." The montage includes a humorous array of clips, such as a portrait of former President Joe Biden's autopen signature displayed in the White House and a meme depicting House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) donning a sombrero during a press conference alongside Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY).
As reported by Breitbart, the White House's post accompanying the video read, "What's up, Bluesky? We thought you mightve missed some of our greatest hits, so we put this together for you. Cant wait to spend more quality time together!"
This playful engagement reflects the administration's strategy to assert its presence on a platform known for its liberal user base.
In a similar vein, the Department of War has also joined Bluesky, emphasizing the might of the U.S. military. Their post boldly stated, "THE MOST POWERFUL MILITARY IN THE WORLD IS NOW ON BLUESKY," and took a jab at Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, urging him to acknowledge President Trump and Secretary of War Pete Hegseth for ensuring military families retained healthcare during what they termed the "Democrat Shutdown."
The Department of State has followed suit, marking its presence on the platform with a post that reads, "Hello, Bluesky! We heard this is a great place to have an open and honest dialogue, so were here to talk about how the Democrat shutdown is undermining our country on the world stage."
This move underscores the administration's intent to engage in discourse on a platform that was initially launched as an invitation-only prototype by Jack Dorsey, the co-founder and former CEO of Twitter (now X).
The Trump administration's foray into Bluesky is a calculated effort to reach audiences beyond its traditional base, utilizing humor and direct engagement to challenge the prevailing narratives on a platform that has been carefully managed since its inception.
