On the 20th of January, President Joe Biden was sworn in as the President of the United States, marking the end of former President Donald Trump's term in office and the daily chaos and falsehoods that defined his presidency.

The work of undoing the nationalist efforts of the Trump administration began immediately after, with Biden signing multiple executive orders to rejoin the Paris Climate Accords, extend student loan payment deferrals, and more.


The digital presence of the White House also changed, with the official @Potus, @VP, @WhiteHouse, and other Twitter accounts modified to reflect the new administration. Government websites did the same, including www.whitehouse.gov.

In addition to photos and bios of the new administration officials, another change to the website was missed by anyone who didn't delve into the metadata.

The site's coding features a hidden message:

"<!-- If you're reading this, we need your help building back better."

It then provides a link for coders to apply to the United States Digital Service (USDS), which "deploys small, responsive groups of designers, engineers, product managers, and bureaucracy specialists to work with and empower civil servants."

The phrase "build back better" is a motto frequently deployed by President Biden and his officials to describe the substantial work of rebuilding the economy in the face of the pandemic that's killed over 400 thousand Americans.

People hailed the hidden listing.






There's already interest in joining the USDS.



The Biden presidency is officially underway.

Ted Cruz Clashes With 'Crazy' MTG Over Her Cryptic Post Alluding That 'The Jews' Are Trying To Kill Her

Texas MAGA Republican Senator Rafael "Ted" Cruz raised eyebrows when he attacked Georgia QAnon/MAGA Republican Representative and conspiracy theorist Marjorie Taylor Greene (MTG) for being antisemitic.

MTG has promoted some antisemitic conspiracy theories in the past, like Jewish space lasers that control the weather or start wildfires, but this time people are calling Cruz out for reaching in an attempt to discredit the Georgia Republican and protect Trump from what's being concealed in FBI, Department of Justice, and court records relating to the indictment of Jeffrey Epstein on charges of sex trafficking of minors.
