Washingtonian: “Do you regularly check Donald Trump’s Truth Social platform? Unless you’re a faithful Trump supporter or a journalist who covers the former president, Chris Herbert would bet that you probably don’t. That’s why Herbert—a web developer based in DC—and his team at the conservative, anti-Trump nonprofit Defending Democracy Together created Trump’s Truth, a database that tracks all of the content that Trump posts to Truth Social. Users of the site, which launched today, can search Trump’s Truth by keyword, filter the results by date, and access content that Trump has deleted from his page.  Trump’s Truth was conceived back in April, when Herbert noticed a number of factors that made Truth Social difficult to monitor. For one thing, its content doesn’t feed into Google search results like tweets or Instagram posts do. Its search engine is not very advanced. Trump deletes posts fairly frequently. And, according to Herbert, the site’s most glaring deficiency is that it doesn’t offer video transcripts or image descriptions: Many of Trump’s posts contain videos and photos, but without text content attached to these uploads, there hasn’t been a way to for search engines to index them up to this point.  “By transcribing it, I think I really am offering an interesting service to people who want to see what [Trump] is saying without literally having to sit through a 20-minute video—and there’s thousands of them,” Herbert says…”
