A well-oiled machine

Sure this makes sense:
A webpage that focused on breast cancer was reportedly scrubbed from the website of the Department of Health and Human Services's (HHS) Office on Women's Health (OWH).
The changes on WomensHealth.gov — which include the removal of material on insurance for low-income people — were detailed in a new report from the Sunlight Foundation's Web Integrity Project and reported by ThinkProgress.
A spokesperson for HHS told ThinkProgress the page was removed Dec. 6, 2017 "because content was not mobile-friendly and very rarely used."
“Before we update any of the information … we engage in a comprehensive audit and use analysis process that includes reviewing other federal consumer health websites to ensure we are not duplicating efforts or presenting redundant information," the spokesperson said.
I don't know what the real story is here. It seems weird. But the idea that anyone in the Trump administration did something out of an analytical process or a "comprehensive audit" is not credible. The HHS is a mess just like every other agency.
