The Biden website was essentially just archived and the new administration is working on building up the site. This isn't something specific, almost all the old website links are broken.
“It’s day two. We are in the process of developing, editing and tweaking the White House website. As part of this ongoing work, some of the archived content on the website went dormant. We are committed to reloading that content in a short timeline,” -Harrison Fields
Everything is archived here: https://bidenwhitehouse.archives.gov/
- That's the part where I'm divided. On the one hand, I understand that they basically have to strip the website down to the basic foundation then rebuild it. On the other hand... I'm not entirely sold that when it returns it will have all of the things it once had. Only time will tell I guess.
  
  We know from Trump's first four years that taking stuff down he doesn't personally like is permanent. He ditched pages on climate change and LGBTQ+ rights and those pages for example.
  
  I'm excited to see the new Bill of Right!
  \2. Get guns and do our work for us
  
  Get guns * only if you are a staunch nazi in the party, otherwise we will remove your guns, just like nazi Germany
  
  Good thing I don't have any guns. Just these two asthmatic dogs that cough really loudly right before the Nazi in front of them takes a sudden nap.
  
  And they flash too!
  
  See, I'm a really bad plastic surgeon and that cop came to me wanting a facelift...

  If you have any belief that any of this stuff will be returning, I have beachfront property on Mars that you may be interested in.
  
  Yeah, I mean every administration rebuilds the entire website after inauguration. I think it's telling, though, that they didn't have the full website ready to go.
- There's also https://eotarchive.org/.
- So the Trump team didn't have even a WIP site to replace as fast as possible the old site?
