Trump Cabinet leans into meme culture, turning policy into pure internet gold

1 week 1 day ago


The Trump administration's unique social media brand was on full display this week, with several Cabinet officials cutting through the eventful news cycle with humorous posts and online exchanges.

This administration is proving to be one of the most meme-literate administrations of our time, whether its Vice President JD Vance embracing the countless, often unflattering AI depictions of himself or Secretary of State Marco Rubio piling on to running online jokes.

'I do not normally respond to online rumors but feel the need to do so.'

Rubio most recently leaned into an ongoing joke about his various roles in the administration. In addition to serving as secretary of state, Rubio also serves as acting national security adviser and acting archivist of the United States. Given the vast responsibilities Rubio has taken on, online users will often joke that he will fill any vacant role, even if it's completely irrelevant to his current positions.

Whether its the newest vacancy in Venezuelan leadership or an open slot for an NFL head coach or general manager, Rubio took to social media to quash the rumors.

"I do not normally respond to online rumors but feel the need to do so at this moment[.] I will not be a candidate for the currently vacant HC and GM positions with the Miami Dolphins," Rubio said in a post on X. "While you never know what the future may bring right now my focus must remain on global events and also the precious archives of the United States of America."

Rubio was not the only high-profile official to chime in on the online discourse.

Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr. unveiled his new and improved dietary guidance on Wednesday, which quickly became the subject of humorous exchanges online.

Vice President Vance jokingly pushed back on Kennedy's new food pyramid, lamenting one go-to "dietary staple" he felt was underrepresented.

"Hey [Secretary Kennedy] this new food pyramid is solid but you forgot to include one dietary staple," Vance said in a post on X alongside a photo of cookies and cream ice cream.

Kennedy replied with the infamous meme photo of Vance edited to appear overweight with overgrown hair.

"Caution! Do not take dietary advice from this guy," Kennedy said in the post.

Dr. Mehmet Oz, administrator for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, also outlined health standards for alcohol consumption, noting that alcohol is appropriate in moderate quantities for social occasions so long as people "don't have it for breakfast." He later made a humorous clarification on in a social media post.

"Brunch is obviously different than breakfast," Oz said. "(Yes, still keep to a minimum.)"

'She was not just ... there to observe': Expert reveals to Glenn Beck Renee Good's radical ties

1 week 1 day ago


As the media attempts to convince viewers that Renee Good was simply acting as a legal "observer" when she was fatally shot by an ICE agent in Minneapolis on Wednesday, Glenn Beck sat down with someone who instead linked Good to a far-left radical group.

On Friday's episode of "The Glenn Beck Program," Beck spoke with counterterrorism expert Ryan Mauro of the Mauro Institute about Good's ties to Minnesota ICE Watch, which reportedly works to "document and resist" the federal immigration crackdown in Minnesota.

'Again, you don't park your car across the road to block it if you're just an observer.'

Mauro discovered through his research that Good likely first learned about Minnesota ICE Watch through her child's charter school, which he described as "openly radical" and which promised to get children involved in politics.

According to Mauro, the group is very radical as well.

"You go to their social media page, and it doesn't take much work, actually, to find instructions on how to assault police in order to free people, open up cop car doors, and pull people out," he explained.

"They do not recognize the United States as a legitimate country," he said, saying that they instead refer to the U.S. as "Turtle Island," prompting Glenn Beck to laugh out loud.

Mauro explained that their goals are not so much about observing law enforcement as "eliminating America" and "setting cop cars on fire." Mauro said Minnesota ICE Watch even had a social media post with "a depiction of a cop car on fire."

"That's how you build an insurgency," Mauro added, noting the "violent intention" implied by that imagery.

Beck played a clip of Minnesota Governor Tim Walz (D) from earlier this week seemingly echoing the same type of violent rhetoric. Walz can be heard telling people that they need to "rise up as neighbors" in the clip.

Beck emphasized that Walz has effectively been priming a "neighborhood revolutionary guard" in recent days with his comments, especially considering the groups that might respond to those entreaties.

Beck and Mauro also agreed that no matter how hard the media tries to spin the story, Good was "not just an observer."

"She was not just somebody who is there to observe. Again, you don't park your car across the road to block it if you're just an observer. That's insanity, and we all know it. Will anyone actually admit to that in the press?"
