A former Trump official was mistakenly listed 'President of the United States' on Google, and tweeted a list of joke executive orders

• A former Trump official was accidentally named the "President of the United States" by Google.
• In light of the mistake, Richard Grenell tweeted his personal "plethora of Executive Orders."
• Grenell was the former acting director of national intelligence under Trump.

A former Trump official jokingly tweeted a list of his "executive orders" after he was mistakenly listed as the president on Google's search results, according to screenshots captured by The Guardian.

Richard Grenell's office title briefly said "President of the United States since 2021" in the right-hand information box. The error was apparently corrected on Saturday, and Grenell's title was accurately listed as "Former Acting Director of the United States National Intelligence." It's unclear how long the incorrect title was visible.

In light of the mishap, Grenell joked that he would announce "a plethora of Executive Orders" on his Twitter Saturday. He added that he "will run up the stairs without tripping" - a dig at President Joe Biden, who tripped on the stairs of Air Force One earlier this week.

In a few tweets, Grenell laid out his joke executive orders, including "an LNG terminal to be built ASAP on the West Coast of the United States (preferably in California)."

He continued: "I hereby order multiple desalinization plants to be built in California. And I also hereby order new Nuclear power plants to be built in California."

He also took a jab at Democratic Rep. Eric Swalwell, tweeting, "Oh, and Eric Swalwell hereby loses his security clearance." Swalwell has been under scrutiny by Republicans over his previous interactions with an alleged Chinese spy, though Swalwell has said he hasn't spoken to her in six years and cut off contact after intelligence officials raised concerns about her.

Grenell, a Republican, was the former acting director of national intelligence and ambassador to Germany, appointed under President Donald Trump. In Grenell's speech last month at the Conservative Political Action Conference, he hinted at a future run for governor of California.
