President Donald Trump has been making headlines about flagging, omitting, and even removing words from official government websites for the past few weeks.
But what are the words being pulled from these websites?
The New York Times explored a variety of “official and unofficial agency guidance” and other government documents that included dozens of terms — though they acknowledge that “the list is most likely incomplete.”
“More agency memos may exist than those seen by New York Times reporters, and some directives are vague or suggest what language might be impermissible without flatly stating it,” the outlet explained.
According to the New York Times, the following list includes the 298 words that have been subject to scrutiny of the second Trump administration:
