Overview
- The White House has removed all official transcripts of President Trump's remarks from its website, leaving only his January 20 inaugural address available in text form.
- The administration claims the move enhances transparency by offering videos, but critics argue it limits public accountability and historical documentation.
- Many public appearances and interactions with the media are missing from the White House's video archive, further restricting access to a complete record.
- Independent platforms, such as Factba.se and the Internet Archive, are stepping in to preserve purged transcripts and maintain searchable records for public use.
- Vice President JD Vance's office continues to release full transcripts of his remarks, highlighting the selective nature of the White House's policy change.
