Banana Republic: The Trump administration is deleting government data.

The Trump administration is deleting government data. From infant deaths to hunger, here are five ways it’s hurting Americans - The Guardian

1. One in three Americans live near hazardous chemicals. Now it’s harder to tell if you’re one of them

2. Babies born in the US have a higher chance of dying than almost all other high-income countries. We’ve stopped tracking why

3. Hunger is rampant in the US. But the government is no longer asking people about it

4. More than half of trans youth have considered suicide. But any mention of trans people has been deleted from a critical survey

And the fifth was about how Trump & Co. is no longer keeping track of the cost of climate disasters.

Because I guess Mr. No-count doesn't have to be held ACCOUNTABLE if there's no account.

All of the links that I had used previously were not available.

I suspect that they are casualties of the climate change as a hoax purge.

while hurting Americans, then yes.

The economy, pollution and environmental concerns, clean energy, healthcare, social safety nets, housing, privacy rights, women's rights, civil rights, livable wages, collective bargaining, consumers' rights...

you name it. Trump is trashing it all while PROFITING AT OUR EXPENSE.
