The signs would \u201cnotify visitors that the Museum exhibits should be renovated consistent\u201d with the findings of the July 4 report. They would also \u201cdirect visitors to locations and resources for accurate information regarding America\u2019s history.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Trump also accused the museum of failing to \u201cto appropriately honor the 56 signers of the Declaration of Independence during this 250th anniversary year of the founding of our country,\u201d and instructed Burgum to install \u201ctemporary exhibits\u201d on Smithsonian walkways to correct \u201cinaccurate information presented in the Museum.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Report demonstrates that the Smithsonian leadership does not present American history as a shared national inheritance to be taught and celebrated, but instead views American history as a \u2018prime tool\u2019 to advance ideas of social justice and the radical transformation of our society,\u201daccording to the newly signed executive order.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/longdistancemoversusas.com\/?p=469\">The White House Correspondents\u2019 Dinner used to roast the president.

Anthea Hartig, head of the National Museum of American History, was grilled over her patriotism and dedication to country.<\/p>\n<p>Hartig said the White House report \u201cdoes not fairly characterize the full body of work of this museum.\u201d And under questioning from GOP lawmakers she reaffirmed her allegiance to her country multiple times, at one point answering, \u201cI love this country unconditionally.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The report, oversight hearings and signage demand compound more than a year of the Trump administration\u2019s pressure campaign against the world\u2019s largest museum, education and research complex.
