You can watch the Trump administration play DEI whac-a-mole with employee policies and public websites on GitHub, which is automatically cataloguing all of the changes the 18F agency is frantically making to its internal and external webpages:

@404mediaco How long until all the US corporate tech platforms are censoring anything that challenges convict Trump and his criminal accomplices?

@404mediaco please change it to DEIA, they are not just changing DEI policies. It includes accessibility, which I think is a very important and separate issue than DEI because of the ADA.

“It has also notably deleted information intended for improving accessibility for blind and visually impaired employees, which asked employees to use “visual descriptions” when introducing themselves on Zoom meetings.”

@404mediaco Deleting the Constitution webpage, that I didn't see coming. Do we know why they did it? What are they planning?

They can't change the text, I hope. Will they re-upload it but with Trump faces and some animated eagle GIFs? That's the best scenario I can think of.

@404mediaco They are also removing references to any "Virtual" or "Remote" work, and apparently sometimes they aren't sure what to say instead and leads to funny edits like this:

@404mediaco did you notice that “quarterback”, the main user making this change has changed his profile text to say “Past: 18F”. Archive.org from a few days ago doesn’t have this text: https://github.com/quarterback vs https://web.archive.org/web/20250105160506/https://github.com/quarterback

@404mediaco it is heartbreaking to see these people have to scramble and betray their deeply held values.

Open government is something to celebrate if only for this reason: it shows cause and effect really clearly.
