Project 2025 had a plan to target federal data. The Trump administration obeyed

Hundreds of datasets and websites that contradict government’s ideology have been altered or wiped – a tactic taken straight from Heritage Foundation’s policy blueprint

Even amid Donald Trump’s failures – the Iran war, soaring prices and a sharp rebuke in the midterm elections last week – there’s still at least one area his administration continues to carry out adeptly: its mass public information censorship campaign.

In less than two years, the Trump administration has done staggering damage to US data and information infrastructure. Hundreds of federal datasets have been terminated or altered, and thousands of government webpages that address diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI), the climate crisis and other issues have been quietly revised or completely wiped.

This under-the-radar censorship isn’t random – it’s been squarely aimed at any information that contradicts the administration’s ideology.
