Trump Scrubs White House Website Of Civil Rights, Climate Change & Healthcare Sections

Obama White House LGBT webpage

Within minutes of being sworn in as president, civil rights, climate change, and healthcare were all scrubbed from the White House website.

From Esquire:

As part of the presidential transition, Trump's team assumes control of WhiteHouse.gov. Before today, the "Issues" tab of the website had a section devoted to climate change, the existential threat posed to our species that a scientific consensus holds is caused by human activity. That section is completely gone with the website revamp, along with any mention of climate change whatsoever.

Trump's new climate change plan: Act like it's not there until it goes away!

Jackie Kucinich, Washington bureau chief for The Daily Beast noticed the disappearance of the civil rights section of the website:

Not to belabor the point ... but civil rights section of the WH website, also gone https://t.co/20zIOymMAQ
