From Fox News: The White House on Monday afternoon rolled out a new social media account aimed to hold “fake news accountable.”
“Welcome to the official Rapid Response account of the Trump 47 White House. We will be supporting President Donald J. Trump’s America First agenda and holding the Fake News accountable for their lies. Let’s Make America Great Again!” the newly formed X account, Rapid Response 47, posted in its first message.
President Donald Trump’s first administration included labeling certain news outlets as “fake news” for reporting what the president claimed was biased content intended to undermine his leadership. Trump continued his fiery relationship with media outlets across his 2024 campaign.
A senior GOP strategist celebrated that the new account “is bad news for the fake news media.”
The account appears to be similar to the ‘Trump War Room’ social media account used by the Trump campaign.
🚨 Welcome to the official Rapid Response account of the Trump 47 White House.
We will support President Donald J. Trump’s America First agenda and hold the Fake News accountable for their lies.
Let’s Make America Great Again. 🇺🇸

Multiple clips were posted to the new account from White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt’s press briefing on Tuesday afternoon, helping to reinforce the message coming directly from the White House, instead of allowing mainstream media to twist the narrative.
In a fierce warning to the leftist media, Leavitt said, “We know for a fact that there have been lies that have been pushed by many legacy media outlets in this country about this president, about his family… and we will not accept that. We will call you out when we feel that your reporting is wrong or there is misinformation about this White House. I will hold myself to the truth — and I expect everyone in this room to do the same.”
