I went to the Smithsonian Institute in the 70’s. It was fascinating.

Now it just a sad fascist state promoter.

Will never believe or trust a single thing that is exhibited at the Smithsonian Institute ever again.

If I was in charge I would shut it down before letting the dictator say what is and is not allowed to save the reputation of the museum.

Tbf this is a pretty goofy take. Sure, the American History museum is compromised by this whitewashing admin. But I doubt they have changed anything at Air and Space, the Holocaust museum, at the art museums, or any of the many other museums that have nothing to do with this impeachment exhibit. The Smithsonian is like over 20 completely different museums

All exhibits will remain the same until they’re told by the child rapist or whoever else gets in later to change it. That is my point. How can it be trusted ever again if they give in so easily? I was around 10-12 when I went and not sure which one. My family called it the Smithsonian Institute.
