mind you theres imo no way that he wasnt doing that in order to have recordings + multiple law enforcement eyewitnesses able to show how angry even the faintest stink of corruption made him, to insulate himself against future accusations but it still owns

Also I'm sorta iffy on day-of archival exposure. People already over-react to enough things and during times of dire consequence like assumed scandals, every action can be over-scrutinized like the person they're watching is a mastermind genius rather than some derpy human. Politicians would be more servants of immediate shame, and shame being whatever twitter thinks is terrible at that moment. I do not want politicians controlled by twitter due to them being human (which being human is by necessity). Weekly/Monthly/Quarterly sound better if you want sooner than end of tenure. Those options can let you release content on the weekend to give people free time to actually view the content on a common non-workday Just imagine this dirt: "Bernie looked at housing guides on his work time! Impeach!!!! Three houses! imagining more!??!"  Plus there may not be time to edit their privates out and make sure it's only public-work being shown. I may like the sexual rockstar Bernie Sanders, but I don't want to see Bernie's when he's going to the bathroom.

if you had like daily detailed logs + monthly/quarterly redacted full transcripts and partial recordings (determined by public interest and nature of the business conducted) + end of term full recordings minus personal/classified business i think we would see a lot of transparency also require that all paid lobbyists and members of govt record all meetings between lobbyists any people in govt and they have to release the recordings of that poo poo way sooner
