But they are not actually destroying government records, they are just removing them from view. If someone does a FOIA request, the tweets will be there.
Oh sure, we'll just take everything the government has ever said ever, scrub it from all public records, and put it somewhere in display at the local planning office in Alpha Centauri. That's totally "keeping the records".
"We kept them, there's all in that rocket orbiting the sun, you can go get them whenever you want."
I mean....this is how most government records work. You want a government official's emails? You have to do a FOIA request.
My main point is that I don't think Twitter is breaking the law because there is no way the tweets have been "destroyed" as the law mentions. Nothing is destroyed.
No, not even close. Most government records are not scrubbed from the public sphere.
That has never happened, and is absolutely not how most government records works.
Government records like emails? Judicial Watch spent years getting Hillary Clinton's emails. The law says that they cannot be DESTROYED. Banning a Twitter account does not destroy any records.
They deleted the entire account, making all data unavailable in a way that IS entirely illegal. All communications of the president are considered to be official. Silicon valley dweebs can't decide to erase them. Well.. They can, but they'll pay the price for doing so.
However, you're also ignoring the fact that “no records.exist“ response for Seth rich.until, what, 2 months ago, then 20k show up?
Deleted does not, as you say, mean destroyed or unrecoverable. However, it does put up a layer of defense to pretend that the deletes weren't soft, or that snapshots.don't exist, or that there's not months of incrementals that can be restored.
Why are they downvoting you? You made the point they will use in their legal defense. It’s not fair, but it’s what they will probably say (if they have too).
Not only that, but it was like a month after the tweet.... which means they just came up with that name to mock-reference him after the fact. Bonus: the acronym was made up by a group of democrats. This post is a joke.
Covfefe is an antediluvian term meaning “in the end, we win”, and that meaning makes perfect sense in the context of his full tweet.
Also, even if that bill passed, it’s not Twitter that would be required to preserve it. It would be the government’s job to archive/preserve them. Expecting Twitter to archive then forever is as ridiculous as Trump writing on a chalkboard in a classroom and expecting the school to never erase that board.
Sad to see 99% of the comments here all like “Bingo! Genius! Ooh Ahh!” over an incorrect post.
My only issue with that is so many people now a days make a living using social media. Yes, the companies themselves suck, but so many honest, hard working people were able to follow their dreams, create businesses and get out of the rat race using social media. I would hate to see these sites simply disappear and take all the good aspects of the services with them.
I don't wanna be a downer but did this bill pass or was it just introduced? The tracker says it was only introduced and has not yet been passed or even reviewed. Unless it's an EO, it doesn't stand. I think it's super cool that covfefe has more meaning than just a typo but it looks like it didn't go anywhere after 2017.
Bingo! Everyone still mocks him for this which is hilarious considering the importance and how easily researched it is. Jack is in trouble.
**
(2) Revise the definition of "presidential records" to include any personal and official social media account.**
He commented that on May 31st '17. The bill was presented (correction of passed - incorrect & written previously; muh bad) to congress on June 12th '17.
H.R.2884 - COVFEFE Act of 2017
Communications Over Various Feeds Electronically For Engagement Act of 2017 or the COVFEFE Act of 2017
It's... It's right fucking there lol. It wasn't a typo, it was a hint.
Not a "well fucking played" in this instance. It was a Democrat who introduced the bill and he named the bill using COVFEFE as an acronym to mock the President.
Rep. Mike Quigley (D-IL5) introduced the COVFEFE Act, H.R. 2884, to permanently archive all of a president’s social media posts, including tweets from any personal non-governmental accounts used during their term(s) of office. It would add the phrase “any personal and official social media account” to the Presidential Records Act of 1978.
With the full name of the Communications Over Various Feeds Electronically for Engagement (COVFEFE) Act, the bill is attracting attention for its acronym but actually addresses a legitimate issue.
It was 100% a simple typo on a tweet sent by mistake. The original tweet reads "Despite the constant negative press covfefe" and then abruptly ends. It was supposed to read "press coverage".
He made a typo and then after all the mocking, unrelated politicians -- all democrats -- came up with the abbreviation name (C.O.V.F.E.F.E.) as reference.
And the mock bill didn't even pass.
The fact people are unable to grasp this reads like satire.

Trump’s personal account @RealDonaldTrump's May 31st tweet “Despite the constant negative press covfefe”

In response to Trump deleting his personal account tweet.....

Rep. Mike Quigley (D-IL5) introduced the COVFEFE Act, H.R. 2884, to permanently archive all of a president’s social media posts, including tweets from any personal non-governmental accounts used during their term(s) of office.
The bill has attracted 10 House cosponsors, all Democrats. It has not yet received a vote in the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee.
So the bill is not Trump's meaning. The bill is a response to Trump deleting. I think Trumps meaning is "in the end we win"
Dianne Marshall, an amateur historian, bible scholar, and author went digging and found that it is actually an Antediluvian term. It means, "In the end we win." According to Marshall, it was commonly used by the sons of Adam as they fought against the evil and fallen men."
I think you're missing the point. What are the chances he would tweet that exact acronym? Then not take it back, not change it, just kind of laugh it off?
If I've learned 1 thing from following q, things are in place long before we are ever aware of it. Way too many coincidences. On the same note, remember just because they are genius concerning some of these "coincidences", they're not clear from being a larp yet.
Theyve pulled off some flat out amazing mind fucks with the proofs, but I haven't seen any real action or arrests yet. ..just mindblowing coincidences that can't all be coincidence.
What are the chances he would tweet that exact acronym?
The acronym was made after the fact, to mock him. It's insane that people are unable to see this.
He made a typo in a tweet ("covfefe" in place of "coverage") and then after all the mocking, unrelated politicians -- all democrats -- came up with the abbreviation name (C.O.V.F.E.F.E.) as reference.
And their mock bill didn't even pass, of course, because it was just for mocking him.
And now OP thinks they're a genius for noticing a bill with the name covfefe as acronym. The same bill that was made to ridicule him. This is ridiculous.
Apparently the person that introduced the bill named it Covfefe because of Trumps tweet though. So we have a chicken and the egg scenario. Either way good of Trump to draw attention to it
Communications Over Various Feeds Electronically For Engagement Act of 2017
How many of us are thinking "why didn't we think of that before?"
I am.
Same.
If Trump isn't allowed to block people on Twitter, Twitter shouldn't be allowed to block him.
But they are not actually destroying government records, they are just removing them from view. If someone does a FOIA request, the tweets will be there.
what you just did there...
is called a 'weasel'
^^ Found @Jack
Jack goes the weasel
Okay, now hang him! In minecraft, sheesh. Hey FBI.
Oh sure, we'll just take everything the government has ever said ever, scrub it from all public records, and put it somewhere in display at the local planning office in Alpha Centauri. That's totally "keeping the records".

Oh For Heaven's Sake mankind it's only four light-years away you know
I mean....this is how most government records work. You want a government official's emails? You have to do a FOIA request.

No, not even close. Most government records are not scrubbed from the public sphere. That has never happened, and is absolutely not how most government records works.
Edit: Also, eat a dick, gab has everything. XD
Government records like emails? Judicial Watch spent years getting Hillary Clinton's emails. The law says that they cannot be DESTROYED. Banning a Twitter account does not destroy any records.
let's do a test. Nuke your fucking account and then we'll ask the mods.to show us what you posted.
I wanna see how this works. For science.
Hilary Clinton's emails aren't most government records.
It destroys future records before they are ever created
They deleted the entire account, making all data unavailable in a way that IS entirely illegal. All communications of the president are considered to be official. Silicon valley dweebs can't decide to erase them. Well.. They can, but they'll pay the price for doing so.
Let’s FOIA request them.
FAFO Request please
I'm a software engineer. Nothing was deleted. Everything is still in the database.
Yes, most deletes are soft.
However, you're also ignoring the fact that “no records.exist“ response for Seth rich.until, what, 2 months ago, then 20k show up?
Deleted does not, as you say, mean destroyed or unrecoverable. However, it does put up a layer of defense to pretend that the deletes weren't soft, or that snapshots.don't exist, or that there's not months of incrementals that can be restored.
Your argument hinges on specifics and not intent.
With Seth Rich, they didn't commit a crime of destroying government records. They just lied about them existing.
Why are attempting to defend the people who had Seth rich murdered?
To amend section 2201 of title 44, United States Code, to require the preservation of Presidential social media accounts, and for other purposes.
Deleting the account and banning the president from accessing it is a violation of COVFEFE.
Why are they downvoting you? You made the point they will use in their legal defense. It’s not fair, but it’s what they will probably say (if they have too).
It makes you wonder how many things are hiding in plain sight that afterwards everyone will go 'oh yeah' or 'D'oh!'
No matter ... The bill died in congress
https://www.billtrack50.com/BillDetail/883729
Just looked it up, the bill was introduced in the house but it didn't pass
Crap. I thought it had been passed.
nope died
https://www.billtrack50.com/BillDetail/883729
See THESE are the type of posts that should be removed. Verifiably false.
They just block more important posts from being seen.
Can you delete it now that you know it’s a distraction and not real? Or do you need to leave it up for some reason?
Yep. He was probably saying he could delete any tweet he wanted.
Not only that, but it was like a month after the tweet.... which means they just came up with that name to mock-reference him after the fact. Bonus: the acronym was made up by a group of democrats. This post is a joke.
ahahaahahahaha

Heard that gab has all of Trumps tweets
Antediluvian is one of the best.dollar words around. Up there with defenestrate.
Did Covfefe ever make it into a q drop?
I think watching the social media giants get swatted would be enjoyable.
Absolutely
will* be enjoyable. I fixed that for you

I believe you are correct. Thanks for noting!!

He's genius!
What?!! For years people tried to decipher covfefe ! this is great!
I think MSM deliberately spearheaded the mocking so nobody would research it.
ha ha ... 4 years later, POTUS still surprises us.
OP is literally a retard. The bill was given a memey name after Trump's misspelled tweet.
Wow, I never heard about this. What came first, the bill or the tweet?
Apparently he tweeted about a week before.
your username
i thought it meant “Mother I’d Like toWife”
76 times? Seems a bit excessive
She’s a nympho.
Coverage. It was supposed to be coverage.

Didn’t know that. Sorry.
Where do you see it was passed? Someone dug deeper and said it was only submitted to Congress.
I corrected & owned the mistake.

"covfefe" WAS NOT a misspelling of "coffee"
It was arabic, meaning "I will not back down" or something to that effect
It means: Despite the constant negative press ... "in the end we win"
False alarm. I'm pretty sure the COVFEFE Act was after his tweet
I think you're missing the point. What are the chances he would tweet that exact acronym? Then not take it back, not change it, just kind of laugh it off?
