Shocked/not shocked that, after the new EO targeting the Institute of Museum and Library Services, our vendor partners are completely silent. This includes money that we spend directly with them in service to our communities. Where you at?

The day after Fred Korematsu Day, government websites related to the internment of Japanese Americans are taken down.
While I can't confirm anything at this point, it looks like the National Park Service has taken down web pages for:
National Japanese American Memorial
Bainbridge Island Japanese American Memorial
Stonewall National Monument
www.nps.gov/index.htm 🗃️
National Japanese American Memorial
Bainbridge Island Japanese American Memorial
Stonewall National Monument
www.nps.gov/index.htm 🗃️
NPS.gov Homepage (U.S. National Park Service)
The National Park Service cares for special places saved by the American people so that all may experience our heritage.

Wait till they find out how hard it is to do things without Federal functionaries. like their presidential nominees are going to have to do all the paperwork
