‘May the 4th be with you’: White House seriously gets into ‘Star Wars Day’
PALM BEACH, Florida – The White House got seriously into the spirit of “Star Wars Day” on Sunday by posting a series of movie-inspired images and videos, including an artificial intelligence generated image of President Donald Trump as a Jedi knight.
On X, the White House stated: “Happy May the 4th to all, including the Radical Left Lunatics who are fighting so hard to to bring Sith Lords, Murderers, Drug Lords, Dangerous Prisoners, & well known MS-13 Gang Members, back into our Galaxy. You’re not the Rebellion – you’re the Empire.
“May the 4th be with you.”

The White House reposted a similar image from the U.S. Army featuring American warriors armed with A.I. generated light sabers.
“Across every galaxy – known and unknown – no force rivals our discipline, strength, and precision,” the Army indicated.
“We don’t just defend the world. We protect the future.”
“Victory is forged, not found. May the 4th be with you.”

Though not part of the Trump administration, actor William Shatner, who portrayed legendary Capt. James Kirk in the “Star Trek” franchise, issued a comedic post of his own, claiming he is the real father of everything “Star Wars.”
I just want to make things clear… Who’s your Daddy @starwars?
