If you happen to aim your web browser over to the official White House web site–whitehouse.gov–you may notice some things you could once access from there are now missing.
For example, what about the topic of healthcare?
Or maybe you were wanting to see the Trump team’s take on civil rights:
LGBT rights?
There’s got to be something on Trump’s signature issue of immigration, right? Uh, no:
It appears the Trumpkins are already engaged in making history disappear, much like Big Brother did in Orwell’s novel 1984.
The page on climate change has been replaced with one entitled “An America First Energy Plan” which proclaims:
“President Trump is committed to eliminating harmful and unnecessary policies such as the Climate Action Plan and the Waters of the U.S. rule.”
That’s not even good propaganda! It’s the same bullshit we’ve been hearing from Trump for over a year and half, and it means even less the more he says it.
Civil rights is now renamed “Standing Up For Our Law Enforcement Community.” And it calls for lots more cops (which is a form of lukewarm fascism) and it also makes American inner cities sound like something out of Mad Max. It has this false information on it:
“In our nation’s capital, killings have risen by 50 percent.”
That’s what Trump would label “fake news,” because in reality D.C. homicides fell in 2016 when compared to 2015.
In case you hadn’t put the pieces together yet, this is all part of what we will be seeing over the next four years: Lies repeated so often that the Trump Administration hopes people will accept them as truth. So perhaps the best thing to do is consider everything Trump or his paid mouthpieces say as a lie unless and until it is proven to be factual. Since nearly nothing they assert will be truth, it won’t take long to place everything in a big folder we can conveniently label, “TRUMP’S BULLSHIT.”
Stay alert, progressives! We can beat this madman by holding him accountable each and every moment of each and every day.
