You were warned. Now it begins: The Chicago Tribune reports that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is working on changes to its Web properties:
The EPA's extensive climate change website now redirects to a page that says "this page is being updated" and that "we are currently updating our website to reflect EPA's priorities under the leadership of President Trump and Administrator Pruitt." It also links to a full archive of how the page used to look on Jan. 19, before Trump's inauguration.

We get the government we deserve (we, the country - not we, your like-minded friends and acquaintances).
That's a vacuous claim.
It presumes that all people have equal access to the levers of democracy.
And that's demonstrably not true. We don't live in a country that follows the principle of one-man, one-vote.
Not to mention that voting itself is much more feasible for people of means.
So, as a description of the collective will of the people, your statement is just plain false.
