Aside from the fact that the page on "renovations" has little to do with the content they spitefully added, I thought I'd try to offer some help to the WH staff in charge of the edits and posted these (I'm afraid I dozed off after, although there's plenty more to say):

I genuinely believe this is the most important thing you can read today and consider. It is long, and lots of other stories compete for or attention daily. Yet in this Tonoccus McClain articulates what so many of us have been trying to eep up with and wrap our heads around.
