I was purging inactive or irrelevant feeds from those I follow on Twitter today. Some time back, I settled on 600 as the maximum number of feeds I would follow, and so whenever the number climbs above that, I go looking for slacker feeds to eliminate.
When I got to @LaCasaBlanca, I figured, That’s one I can ditch! This White House certainly has no used for a Spanish-language feed!
As it turns out, yes and no.
The Trump administration signaled its willingness to keep reaching out to Spanish-speakers with this Tweet, 11 days after the inauguration:
¡Hola! ¡Bienvenidos a @LaCasaBlanca! Sígannos para mantenerse al tanto de las últimas noticias sobre @POTUS Trump y de su administración!
— La Casa Blanca (@LaCasaBlanca) January 31, 2017
Then, only one day and 3 Tweets (only one of them in Spanish) later, the feed stopped cold. Here was the last thing it had to say:
Promesa hecha, promesa cumplida. @POTUS ¡Trump ha nominado a un juez que defenderála Constitución! pic.twitter.com/IaW0aUFefe

¿Que pasó a La Casa Blanca? ¿Quién sabe? I just thought I’d share what I found…
