I don't know if people are still posting/discussing Trump's daily schedule when it comes out, but I did want to note admin's secrecy aims.

Initially, that's what the Trump White House did, too. See: "FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE."pic.twitter.com/CiA4UA3udX

Then, a little more than a week in, it changed to "FOR PLANNING PURPOSES."pic.twitter.com/Qq0GCht5IX

That's like, a middle-ground thing, where we shouldn't publish it, but I guess we can do reporting off of it (or something, it's vague).
-
Then, when Trump went abroad, they went all the way to "FOR PLANNING PURPOSES/NOT REPORTABLE."pic.twitter.com/RWfcrPlLng
-
They were abroad, though, so I let it go because I thought it might be related to security precautions.
-
But, they've kept it that way since. Here's the top of Thursday's schedule: "FOR PLANNING PURPOSES ONLY // NOT REPORTABLE."pic.twitter.com/zUzBmpGRKU

Anyway, I know we have a lot going on, but this is something that has been frustrating me.
-
<unfin> Note: There are times the "NOT REPORTABLE" is acceptable, like, when WH gives press advance notice so we can plan travel.
-
Like, we got when Obama had a trip, too. When they're not announcing it publicly yet, but they understand press schedules need to be made.
-
That's not what they're attempting to set as the rule here. This is just taking something that used to be a public document & making it not.
