Obama Administration Releases Searchable Archive of Social Media Posts (theverge.com)

An anonymous reader writes: President Obama's entire social media presence as POTUS is now available in a single online archive. The administration today launched The Obama White House Social Media Archive, a searchable collection of everything the president and his administration posted on Instagram, Twitter, Flickr, Facebook, Google+, and Pinterest during his two terms in office. According to ArchiveSocial, the platform on which the archive is hosted, this includes more than 100 social media profiles associated with the White House and more than 250,000 total posts. As of right now, the archive's search function isn't the smoothest. A general search like "healthcare" will yield nearly 600 tangential results, including tweets from White House staffers. The Advanced Search will allow you to narrow things down a bit, with filters for date range and social media platform.

Leftists, always looking to silence opposing views. That's why Trump is going to ignore the media and talk to the people directly. The media is a hostile filter and only exists to make him look bad. Just tell us directly. The media dropped their last pretense of objectivity during the election season and came full-out for Hillary. They cannot be trusted to report the truth, no matter how often they tell us otherwise. The whole world saw it.
