The Trump administration will install temporary warning signs outside the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History after releasing a report accusing the museum of promoting what it calls "radical" gender ideology and other politically biased content.

According to the Executive Order, "For purposes of policy formulation under EO 14253, this review of the National Museum of American History concludes that NMAH, by the intention and at the direction of current Museum and Smithsonian leadership, has become subject to institutional capture by a radical, activist ideology that is fundamentally opposed to telling the noble, honest story of the great country we know and love."

Executive Order 14253 refers to what the White House has deemed the "Restoring Truth and Sanity to American History" order. Therefore, the Trump administration has said it will take all available steps to ensure that the issues in the report are addressed and rectified.

Without specifying, the White House has stated that warnings will be posted along NMAH to alert visitors to sections of the museum it has deemed are in violation according to the report.

"The Secretary of the Interior, acting through the Director of the National Park Service (NPS) and in coordination with the Assistant to the President for Domestic Policy, shall install temporary signage along the NPS-maintained sidewalks and walkways used by the public to access the Museum, informing visitors of the findings of the Report and of the policy set forth in section 1 of this order," the Executive Order states.

So many keep telling me that I am an alarmist. But they don't pay any attention at all. I know some people think this can all be reversed later. BUT, we aren't in normal times anymore. We're just not. I get why people want to think like this. But I think that is dangerous at this point.
