CNN - President Trump is now targeting the Smithsonian Institution, which he claims advances “divisive narratives.” In an executive order signed on Thursday, Trump expressed his ire about exhibits featured in the Smithsonian American Art Museum, the National Museum of African American History and Culture and the Smithsonian American Women’s History Museum. He put Vice President JD Vance in charge of overseeing efforts to “remove improper ideology” from all areas of the institution, including its museums, education and research centers and the National Zoo. He also ordered the interior secretary to determine whether public monuments, memorials, statues or markers have been removed or changed since 2020 to “perpetuate a false reconstruction of American history" and restore the original ones.
