Fake news alert: White house is not censoring social media or scientists

-The EPA website is not being scrubbed of climate data
-The White House has not directed any departments on how to use their social media. Some departments have violated internal policies and are punishing/cleaning as normal, and others are under-going internal changes to their communications structure
-There will not be a political panel censoring scientific reports. The EPA is internally looking at changing its peer-review process, and this is all being decided by other scientists, not politicians.
-The EPA has not been told not to stop talking to press or updating its website by the Whitehouse. That is an internal directive while they change their communication structure.

So stop panicking people. The sky isn't falling.

"We're looking at scrubbing it up a bit, putting a little freshener on it, and getting it back up to the public," said Ericksen, who is currently a Republican state lawmaker in Washington.
"We're taking a look at everything on there," he said.

Yep, move along nothing to see here people.

Trump also threw the MLK statue in the fireplace and had Russian hookers pee on it.

So your standard for whether something is true or not is whether the Trump administration says it is true or not?

He's part of the EPA beachhead team. He isn't with the Trump administration. Any changes the EPA are making, they are doing themselves. They White house hasn't given them any directives.

Only one source in that article is from the Trump administration. Most of the quotes are from someone on the EPA beach team.

What about the declaration of marital law in Chicago?

 

[AviatorShades]

He froze the organization while they transition to the new leadership

And the famously neutral US media reported it as Trump shutting down the EPA and banning government officials from mentioning climate change

Day in and day out people fall for the same shit

Yawn

You could choose to believe the folks that told you that Trump had a narrow path to victory, that he peed on some hos, that he got rid of MLK's bust, etc.

Trump did have a narrow path to victory. He did a very good job, and made it happen.

Nooo.. Silly. Just read Breitbart. They're the only site with direct access to the President. Only truth on the interwebnet.

The "beach team" is the Trump team responsible for transitioning the EPA to the trump administration.

We know that they will and have lied about Trump. We have seen them take a personal and adversarial aporoach to covering Trump. They are clearly NOT trustworthy when it comes to Trump. You can pretend if you like though.

You dont see having the media against you, all the demographics, and the majority of the population voting for the other side as a narrow path to victory?

It seems pretty fucking narrow. I hate trump and i can admit it took some serious skill to overcome all that.
