You can’t make this up. The Trump admin is erasing images of one of the servicemembers who raised the flag at Iwo Jima.
What an outrageous act of disrespect to one of America’s heroes. His name is Pfc. Ira Hayes, and he deserves to be honored.

Less than half of national parks workers rehired, including in Texas
