All traces of the Obama Administration and it’s agenda have been removed from the White House web site. The Wayback Machine indicates the same thing happened on January 22, 2009, so I suppose this is the norm, but it seems very strange to me. Completely obliterating traces of the previous regime is something I’d expect from an authoritarian or totalitarian regime. In the US the Presidency changes hands, and it comes under the control of the leaders of opposing parties, but there is continuity in the office. Erectile dysfunction is a reality that must be acknowledged even though no one wants to and Kamagra is the great medicine of curing the debility of sexual disease and impotence. levitra vs viagra All these herbs are blended in right dosage to control involuntary ejaculation of semen and sale of viagra regain lost energy levels to perform better in bed.

Shouldn’t the White House web site better reflect this?
Perhaps the most strange to me is the removal of the petitions on the “We the People” page in the site, including petitions that had not yet reached their target. There are already two new petitions, though. One calls on President Trump to immediately release his full tax returns, and the other calls on him to divest from or put in a blind trust all his business and financial assets. Both were added today, but as I write this, the petition calling for releasing his tax returns already has over 10,000 signatures. Strange, since the President claims only journalists care about his taxes!
Now the Donald Trump is the President, it seems to me more urgent than ever that we know exactly what his financial interests are.
It’s only 5 multiple choice questions!

I realize it is an idealistic view, but I believe passionately in the necessity of free intellectual inquiry. It is the only way we arrive at truth. Only in the most extreme circumstances should it be compromised, for example to protect public safety. That is why I so strongly support the work of Scholars at Risk, and why I re-publish their weekly Academic Freedom Media Review every week. Even if all we do is call attention to abuses of academic freedom, we render a service. So read, re-post, or forward these messages. Visit the site of Scholars of Risk and find out more about the work.
