The White House is conducting a comprehensive internal review of exhibits and materials at the Smithsonian Institution in an effort to comply with President Donald Trump’s directive about what should and shouldn’t be displayed.
The Trump administration’s plan to, in effect, audit the content of Smithsonian museums drew criticism from groups that represent scholars and promote free speech.
CNN's Scott Jennings argued many critics of Trump's Smithsonian review are hypocritical for previously cheering monument destruction during 2020 protests.
