Trump’s latest executive order sparks controversy as it mandates content warning signs outside the Smithsonian National Museum of American History, citing a damning 162-page report that accuses museum leadership of promoting “extreme political activism” and “anti-Americanism.” The move, part of Trump’s yearlong effort to reshape the Smithsonian, references a March 2025 order that initiated a sweeping review. Museum director Anthea Hartig defiantly counters, inviting lawmakers to experience the museum firsthand and asserting its mission is to tell the full, unfiltered story of American history—not just a curated version. The signs, meant to direct visitors to “accurate” historical resources, remain vague on specifics, leaving the public and historians wondering how—or if—this will play out.
