    Within minutes of inauguration, the pages on the rights of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender Americans were deleted from whitehouse.gov and the web site of the US Department of Labor.

    I don't have to say not my president; he said it.

    CLAIM: Donald Trump removed the terms "LGBT" and "climate change" from the White House web site.

    WHAT'S FALSE: The majority of content on WhiteHouse.gov was transferred to ObamaWhiteHouse.gov on Inauguration Day, and the terms "LGBT" and "climate change" were not specifically removed by Donald Trump.

    However, it's inaccurate to say that these terms were specifically scrubbed from the site by Donald Trump. On 17 January 2017, WhiteHouse.gov issued an announcement explaining the digital transition that would take place on Inauguration Day. For instance, all of the messages posted by Barack Obama under the @POTUS handle on Twitter were transferred to a new @POTUS44 account, giving Donald Trump the opportunity to take over the previous presidential Twitter account @POTUS.

    In the same way, the content related to the Obama administration on WhiteHouse.gov was migrated to a new web site, ObamaWhiteHouse.Archives.gov:

    Sounds like they reset the content management system to mostly empty.

    That's what happens when you put Sarah Palin in charge of something.

    What's interesting is that Trump has been dogged about getting rid of and replacing the ACA. But if you look at the issues on Whitehouse.gov, not a peep about it.

    It takes a while to populate content for a www site like that. They just got control of it today.

    ^^^^ ....and Hillary was anti-gay marriage up until just a couple of years ago. That stance, and that pic above is why one of my clients voted Republican for the first time in their lives.

    Yeah, but they have content for 6 issues and not one regarding the ACA. Trump has treated it as a priority, so I was just surprised there wasn't anything about it on there, but there was content for 6 other issues.

    My party ran the first openly gay presidential candidate, decades ago. Some of us have known better all along. And others only when forced to by opinion polls.

    You can see them here on the left margin and in the dropdown. They are probably mostly C&P's from his campaign page, but I don't know for sure.

    The LGBT 5 sounds like a rather poorly thought out Village People tribute band.

    But it's nice that they're for our new president.
