We seem to remember hearing that President Joe Biden had 16 people on staff for his digital communications. One of them had the bright idea to set up a phone number so you could text your New Year's resolutions to the president and first lady Jill Biden. Why anyone would do this we don't know. What are they going to do with them? We don't know.

It seems to be going well on X at least:

It's a great way to farm phone numbers.

This, apparently, is the auto-reply people are getting:

Hi there, it's President Biden. Thanks for reaching out - I'm excited to be connected.

I'm giving out the number because I wanted a direct channel to communicate with folks like you. I'll text from here from time to time, and you should feel free to text me too. I won't be able to reply to everything, but I'll try my hardest. Click this link so I can read your message and reply to you.

Don't click the link.

If you want to give your mobile phone number to Biden's communications team, feel free. At least you can troll him and say you resolve to vote for Donald Trump.
