Public health data disappeared from websites, entire webpages went blank and employees erased pronouns from email signatures Friday as federal agencies scrambled to comply with a directive tied to President Donald Trump's order rolling back protections for transgender people.

The Office of Personnel Management directed agency heads to strip "gender ideology" from websites, contracts and emails in a memo sent Wednesday, with changes ordered to be instituted by 5 p.m. Friday. It also directed agencies to disband employee resource groups, terminate grants and contracts related to the issue, and replace the term "gender" with "sex" on government forms.

Asked by reporters Friday about reports that government websites were being shut down to eliminate mentions of diversity, equity and inclusion, Trump and said he didn't know anything about it but that he'd endorse such a move.

"I don't know. That doesn't sound like a bad idea to me," Trump said, adding that he campaigned promising to stamp out such initiatives.

All State Department employees were ordered to remove gender-specific pronouns from their email signatures. The directive, from the acting head of the Bureau of Management, said this was required to comply with Trump's executive orders and that the department was also removing all references to "gender ideology" from websites and internal documents.

This is what you get when you give one monkey a hundred typewriters. Forget Shakespeare, you just get Trump. And that's a sad day for anyone who cares about anything other than money and punishing minorities.

It's a sad day for the people of the US. Most of you voted for this clown. I hope you realise what a gigantic mistake you made, and that he doesn't get his way to grant himself a third term.

Actually, less than 50% of the people who voted selected him. Unfortunately, he had the most votes in enough states to claim enough 'electoral' votes to win the election. It's still quite sad that so many people voted for for someone whose only purpose in life is to be a bad example.

And a big reason why you need to change the way you run elections. Scrap the whole electoral college tactical voting nonsense. Because it always ends up the same way. People only care about 4-5 states out of the whole of your country. Most of the people, they don't even think exists. Because they don't live in important states. It's a fundamentally flawed system, just like ours in the UK is. And rigged for Julius Trumpulus to sail back into office.
