The National Park Service is part of the Interior Department. Trump has targeted cultural and historical institutions \u2013 from museums to monuments to national parks \u2013 to remove what he calls &#8220;anti-American&#8221; ideology. His declarations and executive orders have led to the dismantling of exhibits on slavery, the restoration of Confederate statues and other \u200cmoves that civil rights advocates say could reverse decades of progress. The Interior Department spokesperson alleged the internal working documents were edited in a misrepresenting way before being released. The spokesperson also labelled the release as inappropriate and illegal, without specifying the law it allegedly violated. &#8220;Employees who altered internal records and leaked in an effort to hurt the Trump administration will be held accountable,&#8221; the spokesperson added. The Trump administration has sought to stifle internal dissent within government agencies and taken action against employees who have criticized its policies. Last year, some employees at the Federal Emergency Management Agency were put on leave after they signed an open letter against the agency\u2019s leadership, while some Environmental Protection Agency employees were fired after they signed a letter critical of the government&#8217;s actions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WASHINGTON(National Times)- The US Interior Department said a database revealing how President Donald Trump&#8217;s administration planned to revise information on key phases of \u200bAmerican history at national park sites was deliberative and the employees \u200cwho released it &#8220;will be held accountable.&#8221; An internal government database first reported by the\u00a0Washington Post\u00a0and posted on two public websites [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":121749,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-121748","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-international","entry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.0 -
