The Pentagon deleted webpages on the Holocaust, on Medal of Honor recipient SGT Henry Johnson, and on Jackie Robinson.
Now they’re banning books on the Holocaust, Maya Angelou’s autobiography, and American history.

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it.
