Where can you read all the tweets that American politicians thought twice about before deleting?

Answer: Politwoops

Politwoops is a Sunlight Foundation website that seeks to increase government transparency by housing politicians' deleted tweets.

Organizers reported on June 5, however, that they fear the tweet repository will soon be shut down, Phys.org reported. In a meeting with Twitter, Politwoops was informed that they were in violation of Twitter’s terms of service, but Twitter has also known about the website since it was conceived at a Netherlands-based hackathon in 2010.

For those interested in reading the tweets that politicians thought better of, Politwoops is online...for now.
