A Trump administration website touted as a way for Americans to get cheaper prescription drugs features what appears to be an AI-generated image of a child with six toes sprinting toward a U.S. flag with no stars.<\/p>\n

TrumpRx.gov<\/a>\u2014built by the same team that created the much-derided Trump Gold Card immigration site<\/a>\u2014promises to \u201cconnect patients directly with the best prices\u201d on medications after its expected launch next year. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

But even in its early stages, experts see some worrying signs about the security of the site.<\/p>\n

Its homepage features an apparent AI-generated picture of a child with one too many toes dashing across a beach toward a U.S. flag missing all its stars, as NOTUS<\/a> reported after investigating the government\u2019s \u201csloppy\u201d new website project.<\/p>\n

TrumpRx is one of several glossy sites produced by the National Design Studio, an in-house digital shop created as part of an Aug. 21 executive order from President Donald Trump, 79, to make government services \u201cusable and beautiful.\u201d The administration has reportedly tried to sell the entire federal government on the new design studio, with all agencies told to work with the chief design officer\u2014Airbnb co-founder Joe Gebbia\u2014and be ready to show off their \u201cinitial results\u201d by July 4, 2026. <\/p>\n

NOTUS reports that the same design studio created the websites used to promote the initiative, NDStudio.gov and AmericaByDesign.gov, as well as the Trump Gold Card immigration site and Genesis.energy.gov, an artificial-intelligence initiative at the Department of Energy. <\/p>\n

The Gold Card website\u2014which offers permanent residency in the U.S. to those who fork over $5 million\u2014was mocked<\/a> in June for how cheap it looked. <\/p>\n

The design push comes after the General Services Administration in March shut down 18F, the office that had previously handled helping agencies build secure, accessible services. <\/p>\n

Accessibility specialist Anna Cook, who examined code for AmericaByDesign.gov, flagged what she described as a \u201cheavy reliance on unedited AI-generated content\u201d and warned that AI-written code using outdated techniques could open security holes. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe issue here is that this is the American federal government,\u201d she told NOTUS, arguing that \u201ca qualified tech team would have at least fixed these issues before pushing the sites into production.\u201d <\/p>\n

When TrumpRx goes live in 2026, it will be used to help people find and ultimately buy their prescriptions, which would involve the inputting of detailed records on their medication history. That information would then potentially be accessible to the site\u2019s administrators, experts told NOTUS.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf I do it through a pharmacy and an actual health care provider, they\u2019ve been going through the requirements for HIPAA compliance for decades,\u201d digital designer Christopher Butler told the outlet, adding, \u201cI don\u2019t necessarily trust that the guy from Airbnb has any background in that, and the \u2018DOGE bros\u2019 have any care for that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Critics say the new aesthetic may look slick but also risks locking out millions of users. Some National Design Studio sites require multi-megabyte downloads just to load a landing page, a heavy lift for people on older devices or pay-as-you-go data plans, web designer and former 18F staffer Ethan Marcotte warned. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe sites built by this administration\u2019s National Design Studio are very likely too time-consuming, or too expensive, for you to access,\u201d he told NOTUS.<\/p>\n

Chris Hinds, chief operating officer of accessibility firm Equalize Digital, told the news site that three National Design Studio builds he reviewed had low-contrast text and broken heading structures that \u201ccould be in violation\u201d of federal accessibility rules. <\/p>\n

\u201cNone of these sites come close to meeting that standard,\u201d he said, referring to Web Content Accessibility Guidelines that underpin disability access laws such as Section 508. <\/p>\n

Gebbia, who still sits on Airbnb\u2019s board and whose net worth Forbes estimates at $8.3 billion, has said he wants government sites to feel like an Apple Store\u2014\u201cbeautifully designed\u201d with \u201cgreat user experience\u201d and \u201cmodern systems,\u201d as he put it in a March Fox News appearance. <\/p>\n
