The USAID website is disconnected while Trump continues to dismantle the government

The USAID website, the United States government agency that distributes foreign aid, fell on Saturday and is not clear when it can return. The interruption occurs when each federal website has been ordered to erase the prohibited words, although USAID interruption could be related to the reports that Donald Trump plans to put the majority of the agency under the control of the State Department of the States of the States United, according to Reuters.

Publications in X suggest that the USAID website can have redirected To the White House website for a while before obscuring completely, but Gizmodo could not confirm it independently. The USAID press office did not immediately answer the questions sent by email on Saturday.

Previously, the website of the US Census Office, Census.gov, was disconnected around 5 PM ET on Friday. That interruption occurred shortly after the CBS News reporter Jennifer Jacobs, tweeted that some government websites were scheduled to darken Friday at 5 pm precisely, citing White House officials. Jacobs later reported the interruption on government websites related to an attempt to eliminate “content related to diversity,“And the census website was restored about an hour later.

Gizmodo reported Friday about the plans of the CDC to scrub the website of the agency of the entire “gender ideology”, as the Trump administration has called it, an euphemism for anything Trump opposes the relationship with the rights with the rights LGBT and the role of women in society. Elizabeth Murray, a pediatrician who specializes in treating children who are victims of sexual abuse, reported in Tiktok that an application of the CDC that tells doctors how to treat children who have been raped. discarded.

“This is the application of sexually transmitted infection treatment guidelines of the CDC,” said the pediatrician. “We use this to discover the correct dose to treat a small child who acquired a sexually transmitted infection after being abused. Young children need a different dose than adults, and this is updated quite frequently depending on drug resistance and other things. Apparently, helping young children who have been sexually assaulted is now too awake. But that’s where we are. “

The ideological purge of the Trump government has been rapid, since the fascist president has issued a wave of executive orders and illegally tried to close government spending in programs to which he opposes. A federal judge ruled on Friday that Trump must stop trying to stop the flow of money that had been properly assigned by Congress.

The CDC website has been stripped of vital information, including HIV data for doctors to talk to patients about treatment, according to Time magazine. A page called “HIV Nexus: CDC Resources for Doctors” was just one of the many pages on the CDC website that are no longer available, the result that the agency is aimed at scrubbing words and complete reports that mention LGBT problems .

Almost all agencies seem to have been affected by draconian censorship and the culture of fear that permeates now present in the federal government apparatus. Huffpost Reporter of Congress Jen Bendery He wrote in Bluesky That a source from the Environmental Protection Agency was concerned about the way communications were now being monitored in the EPA after a recent Microsoft software update.

“It is likely that their state in the teams is being monitored, and someone has dropped a track for someone above in the EPA so that they can be monitoring the calls of the teams. Now we have to be careful with what we say in the Equipment calls, “was the EPA staff member cited as saying.

The United States Department of Justice eliminated a position database for the defendants of January 6, according to the political transparency group CREW. And given the scope of the purge, it seems likely to spend a lot of time before the United States public has an idea of ​​how much knowledge has been scrubbing the website by its own government.
