It’s Matthew Carter’s typeface, Shelley (fontsinuse.com/typefaces/27...), but like much Word Art it’s been artificially bolded.
But the White House has a Chief Calligrapher (en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?...), so why not have her do something proper? (Unless she’s been laid off like everyone else.)

When a chatbot gets something wrong, it’s not because it made an error. It’s because on that roll of the dice, it happened to string together a group of words that, when read by a human, represents something false. But it was working entirely as designed. It was supposed to make a sentence & it did.

"Eventually you have to stand for something, or somebody else will tell you where to stand, and if you'd rather not, they'll force you to stand there, and stand there you will.
And there you'll be, standing in a place somebody else chose for you. You and the nothing you built inside."

The attack on Portland was supposed to make the place look like a lawless hellhole. Instead, the authorities have succeeded in making it look like the most fun city in the world.
