The White House played an April Fools’ Day prank on journalists inside the press room.
Around 6 p.m. EDT, the White House Assistant Press Secretary Taylor Rogers announced over the loudspeaker that there was a “dinner lid until 8:47” p.m., signaling an unexpected later night of work.
“You have a dinner lid until 8:47,” Rogers reiterated in a video shared online by a colleague. “Enjoy your dinner.”
A short time later, she took the speaker again to say “Happy April Fools!” and the room exploded in laughter.
“Enjoy your evening and Happy Liberation Day eve,” Rogers said, pointing to President Trump’s April 2 tariff deadline on Tuesday.
It’s standard for members of the White House to play a light prank on its staff or the press pool on April Fools’ Day.
In 2021, former first lady Jill Biden dressed up as a flight attendant who wore a black wig and handed out ice cream bars to members of the media from a flight from California to Washington. As second lady, she once crammed her body into an overhead bin on Air Force Two and scared the person attempting to stow their luggage.
