  "account": "Tetris has spoken out against the Trump administration's launch of a game called \"Build the Wall,\" which the company sees as an attempt to divide people rather than bring them together. The game, featured on the White House's new Arcade.Gov website alongside other clones of popular games, encourages players to \"Protect the border from the coming horde.\" Tetris emphasizes its commitment to connection and unity, stating that it \"believes in the power of connection and bringing people together, not dividing them.\" The company has not taken legal action against the game but issued a statement confirming its disinterest in the project. The White House's Arcade.Gov page, launched yesterday, contains five games, including titles that urge players to \"border patrol along the Rio Grande\" and \"fill your kids' Trump accounts.\"",
