  • No press releases will be going out to external audiences.
  • No social media will be going out. A Digital Strategist will be coming on board to oversee social media. Existing, individually controlled, social media accounts may become more centrally controlled.
  • No blog messages.
  • No new content can be placed on any website. Only do clean up where essential.

And while the flow of information out of the EPA has been locked down, it’s far more than press releases that have ceased to flow.

EPA staff has been instructed to freeze all its grants ― an extensive program that includes funding for research, redevelopment of former industrial sites, air quality monitoring and education, among other things ― and told not to discuss this order with anyone outside the agency, according to a Hill source with knowledge of the situation.

  • And the woman nominated as head of education, in the last election, donated 900,000,000 to candidates who opposed public education. Thank goodness the country isn’t taking this lying down.
