The White House launched its official mobile app on March 27, billing it as the 'fastest, most powerful way to stay informed and engaged with the Trump Administration.' The app, developed by 45Press, a small Ohio-based company, quickly drew technical scrutiny from armchair developers and infosec experts. However, a more unusual revelation emerged: the CEO of 45Press, Joel Kendall, operates a side business called Sir Storia. This venture curates a website directory dedicated to 'historical and paranormal locations,' specifically focusing on 'unexplained' sites.

Kendall's interest in the unexplained extends to UFOs, as evidenced by his August 2025 online store selling T-shirts featuring 'the most famous UFO events that ever happened in Ohio.' This hobby raises questions about the administration's choice of developer and potential implications for the app's perceived neutrality and technical rigor.
