'Most Transparent' White House In History Keeps Majority Of Trump's Remarks Secret

https://www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-secret-transcripts_n_6824fe20e4b021b5064adc84

WASHINGTON — If you’re interested in finding Donald Trump’s precise words as he lied about his failed coup attempt in his Jan. 20 remarks at the U.S. Capitol soon after his inaugural speech, good luck with that.

Same with his Feb. 12 thoughts in the Oval Office on how magnetism, in his view “a new theory,” doesn’t work on the aircraft carrier Gerald Ford.

Or his statements in the Feb. 28 meeting with Volodymyr Zelenskyy, berating the Ukrainian president and empathizing with Russian dictator Vladimir Putin instead.

Ditto with his April 14 explanation of how well he is doing with “the cognitive” compared to previous occupants of the White House.

The self-proclaimed “most transparent” White House in history, as it turns out, has little interest in making the vast majority of Trump’s speeches and interactions with journalists readily accessible to the public whose taxes pay for their transcription, publishing just 29 transcripts of the 146 public remarks Trump made in his first 100 days in office.

I sent Jen Saki this message: Cause we do not want or need a pu-dent to scare to say the truth. "Jen you sound like someone who praises trump. You are so neutral, what you say is offensive to non trumpers. So afraid of being fired, you say nothing”. So disgusted with pretend journalist protecting trumpism.
