    They are trying to infiltrate the life of people with their politics.

    They will keep going as far as they can because they obviously use all leverage they have as the current administration to distribute their narrative. Using official governmental websites for politics was a first step, installing an political app on all employees phones is another step. There will be more steps.

    In some autocratic countries, the emergency broadcast system for mobiles is used for political messages. The US is not there yet, but the current administration for sure tries very hard.

    ‘A button gives the option to “text President Trump,” which, when clicked, opens a text message to a pre-selected number with the default text “Greatest President Ever!” Sending the text signs the user up for alerts, which individuals can also do through the app itself.’

    Positive view: Trump is connecting the people closer to policy, which in a way is what all systems of government should be doing.

    Negative view: Trump is re-routing political power around any remaining checks and balances that exist in the current system.

    I'm sure the Epstein regime is just doing this to somehow protect the children.
