Trump’s State Department is Deleting All of Its Twitter\/X Posts Prior to His Reelection"},"content":{"rendered":"

One of the propaganda tactics that Donald Trump is best known for is his projection of objectionable conduct that he engages in onto his political enemies. It’s a tactic that he usually executes so poorly that his effectiveness is destroyed by his obvious hypocrisy. Like when he accuses others of being pedophiles, while photos of him and young girls are abundant in the Epstein files.<\/p>\n

Trump also employs this strategy to pretend that he advocates government transparency. He brags about how often he takes questions from the media, but fails to acknowledge that his answers are mostly lies, or don’t even bother to respond to the question, instead diverting into personal insults directed at the (usually female) reporter. Sadly, on some small sector of the electorate, this strategy works.<\/p>\n

The latest evidence of Trump’s aversion to actual transparency was revealed in a story published by NPR<\/a><\/strong> about a new directive from Trump’s State Department. The story exposes how the agency run by Trump flunky Marco Rubio is planning to make it more difficult, if not impossible, to find the public comments by the agency and its principles. NPR reports that…<\/p>\n

“The State Department is removing all posts on its public accounts on the social media platform X made before President Trump returned to office on Jan. 20, 2025.<\/p>\n

“The posts will be internally archived but will no longer be on public view, the State Department confirmed to NPR. Staff members were told that anyone wanting to see older posts will have to file a Freedom of Information Act request, according to a State Department employee who asked to remain anonymous for fear of retaliation by the Trump administration. That would differ from how the U.S. government typically handles archiving the public online footprint of previous administrations.”<\/p>\n

“The move comes as the Trump administration has removed wide swaths of information from government websites that conflict with the president’s views, including environmental and health data and references to women, people of color and members of the LGBTQ+ community.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

There are some obvious questions raised by this initiative. Such as why would the State Department want to get rid of comments that have been publicly available for months or years? Why put people through the ordeal of filing Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests to get something that was easily accessible prior to this policy? Why was the source of this news so afraid of retaliation that he\/she insisted on being anonymous? Also…<\/p>\n

Is the State Department worried that there will be more incidents like the one this week, wherein Trump posted a grossly racist video<\/a><\/strong> depicting Michelle and President Obama as apes? Are they afraid that there will be more exposures of Trump and his cronies advocating a fascist agenda to undermine democracy? Is the Trump regime so scared of hypocrisies, contradictions, and outright lies being found that they need to expunge the entire public record?<\/p>\n

Yes, yes, and yes. This self-censorship is consistent with the tyrannical machinations of an authoritarian administration that has already banned news organizations<\/a><\/strong> and journalists from covering them if their coverage wasn’t unflinchingly worshipful. They have also disappeared government records that might reflect negatively on them.<\/p>\n

Trump’s attempts to delete all of the State Department posts on Twitter\/X is not only censorship. It might also be illegal. The administration is bound by law to preserve all official government records and communications. And comments on social media by official government accounts are subject to that law. The problem here is that Trump doesn’t think that he is subject to any law, including the Constitution. Hopefully he will be set straight by Congress and\/or the courts.<\/p>\n
