The report comes in the midst of Trump’s aggressive campaign to overhaul some of Washington’s most sacred cultural and historic institutions
A White House report has branded the leadership of the Smithsonian Institution, particularly the National Museum of American History, as radical activists who are untrustworthy, signaling Donald Trump’s potential move to appoint his own team.
This report, issued by the White House Domestic Policy Council on Independence Day, aligns with President Trump’s aggressive efforts to reshape Washington’s prominent cultural and historical institutions.
Earlier in March, Trump had already indicated his intent to enforce changes at the Smithsonian through an executive order, which aimed to cut funding for programs promoting “divisive narratives” and “improper ideology,” as part of his ongoing critique of what he perceives as overly liberal culture.
What if it something else… Worse… Like what if America never really was what it was marketed to us to be.
It wasn’t. But that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t strive to make it be the best version of itself it could be, and fight tooth and nail against attempts to make it worse.
