It replaces the old homepage-which featured a banner image of Trump, the bolded phrase "America is Back," and headshots of the first lady and vice president-with a decidedly more cinematic design. Now, when people visit whitehouse.gov, they're immediately greeted with a wall of videos, including shots of Trump sporting his own "Make America Great Again" merch, saluting military personnel, and taking off in a helicopter. Every shot is bathed in a warm, fuzzy filter, making the whole page feel like a retro-inspired movie trailer.

The livestream of a YouTube content creator talking about investments mysteriously appeared to take over a White House website, raising questions about whether the site was hacked. The livestream appeared for at least eight minutes late Thursday on whitehouse.gov/live, where the White House usually streams live video of the president speaking. It's unclear if the website was breached or the video was linked accidentally by someone in the government. The White House said in a statement that it was aware and looking into what happened.

The web page includes a "Major Events Timeline," which details the renovations following the War of 1812 and the construction of the Oval Office in 1909, for example. But last week, the administration added a number of entries to the timeline about supposed misdeeds by the Clinton, Obama and Biden administrations - some of which included flagrant misinformation. After the changes were met with widespread criticism, the site appears to have removed those items.
