The Smithsonian Changes Its Description of Trump’s Role on Jan. 6

What Happened: The Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History changed its Trump impeachment display, deleting references to “false statements” and “foreseeably” inciting violence on Jan. 6. The update also added “alleged” to his first impeachment, following Trump’s pressure campaign to purge exhibits of “bias.”

Why It Matters: This is history rewritten under pressure from the White House. If the Smithsonian can be forced to whitewash the truth, it shows how autocrats can bend cultural institutions to sanitize their record and erase accountability.

What's next? Taking down names of founding fathers?

Changing the ethnicity of people in historical statues or stories?

Remaking iconic movies, changing the gender or ethnicity of the star?

No way that would never happen.


Just like White Liberals on Intoelrant Steroids, clamping down on key levers in America wouldn't create a backlash.

Enjoy the tribalism......

Someone had warned it.

Now, I cheer it on and subtly egg it on.
