We're living through an Orwell novel

Back in May, as part of the plan to Make America White Again, Orange Nero fired the first female and first non-white Librarian of Congress, and named in her place his personal attorney as the acting head, who has zero qualifications for the position and is already in a time consuming position as Deputy Attorney General. He happens to be a white male, however. And then something like this happens

As TechCrunch previously reported, parts of Section 8, as well as the entirety of Section 9 and Section 10, were deleted from Article 1 of the Constitution on the U.S. government’s official website over the past month. The changes to the sections, which pertained to congressional powers, the rights of individual states, and the rights to due process, sparked alarm at a time when the Trump administration has threatened to suspend habeas corpus.
Maybe it really was a coding error. That sounds plausible. But equally plausible is Trump appointees purging federal websites of information Dear Leader does not like. It's plausible because it's already been happening at an alarming rate.
