“Trump Administration to Remove Content from Federal Websites”

Federal Agencies Ordered to Remove References to Gender Ideology

A newly obtained memo reveals that all references to “gender ideology” are being systematically removed across the federal government in a significant policy shift. The deadline for compliance was set for 5 p.m. Eastern Time today, and changes are already taking effect.

This directive instructs agencies to take down all public websites and social media accounts that promote gender ideology. Additionally, Microsoft Outlook features prompting staff to include their pronouns in email signatures have been disabled. Employee resource groups centered around gender ideology are also being disbanded.

According to sources, these actions align with broader efforts to roll back diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives throughout the federal government. This comes in the wake of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) removing various HIV-related content from its website.

Government staffers report that pages concerning LGBTQ+ health, racial disparities in HIV infections, and youth risk behaviors have been deleted. One employee described the process as “demoralizing,” stating that many officials were uncertain about implementing the policy but ultimately had no choice but to comply.

Experts warn that these changes could severely impact public health efforts, particularly within minority communities disproportionately affected by HIV. The CDC has long played a vital role in tracking infections, providing grants to local health departments, and spearheading prevention initiatives.

One insider summed up the concern succinctly: “How are we going to be able to talk about risk if we can’t acknowledge it?”
