The White House posted two cryptic videos on its official X and Instagram accounts on Wednesday, March 25, before deleting one of them. The first video, which was removed, featured an unidentified female voice saying, 'It's launching soon, right?' and text on screen reading 'sound on.' The second video, still available on Instagram, showed a staticky screen with a phone notification sound and an American flag in one frame.
The White House has not provided any context for the posts, leading to widespread speculation online. Some users questioned whether the accounts had been compromised, while others theorized the videos were intentionally cryptic teasers. The posts follow previous instances of the Trump administration sharing meme-style content on official social media.
Conservative influencer Becky Weiss and other verified accounts commented on the videos, expressing confusion or concern. The White House did not respond to requests for comment.
