Okay sorry, I was just fixing the obvious lisp errors in your example, I
didn't actually try the code.

`url-retrieve-synchronously' returns a buffer containing the URL
contents, not the data itself. So it should look like this:

(require 'url)
(require 'url-http)
(require 'json)
(defvar data-buffer
  (let ((url-request-method "POST")
	(url-request-extra-headers
	 `(("Content-Type" . "application/x-www-form-urlencoded")
	   ("Authorization" . "bearer 1zzpkqkabx2v424kjn8yqmfjhywzny6sn2bmb7kt")))
	(url-request-data (json-encode '(:title "Post using emacs."))))
    (url-retrieve-synchronously "https://asgardian.be/WordPress/wp-json/wp/v2/posts?state=1234&access_token=1zzpkqkabx2v424kjn8yqmfjhywzny6sn2bmb7kt")))
(display-buffer data-buffer)

If there's something wrong with the actual authorization process, of
course, I won't be able to help with that. But to my knowledge the above
should be the equivalent of the Python code you posted.
