Trump Administration Scrubs LGBT, Climate Change Issues From New White House Website
WhiteHouse.gov Contains Just Six Issues
The incoming Trump administration has scrubbed the White House website. All pages created during President Barack Obama’s tenure appear to have been archived. But in their place is an almost bare domain with just six main issues: America First Energy Plan, America First Foreign Policy, Bringing Back Jobs And Growth, Making Our Military Strong Again, Standing Up For Our Law Enforcement Community, and Trade Deals Working For All Americans.
The White House removed its climate change web page. And the healthcare, civil rights and LGBT sections. Just thought you should know.

Donald Trump foments violence and hate, is a serial liar, a racist, a misogynist, a supporter of white nationalism, a fascistic bully, an authoritarian thug, a sexual assault and adultery braggart, a hypocrite, a defrauder, and is a danger to civil rights, freedom of the press, and peace around the world.Â
