The Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History in July removed references to President Donald Trump’s two impeachments from an exhibit display. A person familiar with the exhibit plans, who was not authorized to discuss them publicly, said the change came about as part of a content review that the Smithsonian agreed to undertake following pressure from the White House to remove an art museum director.

A temporary label including content about Trump’s impeachments had been on display since September 2021 at the Washington museum, a Smithsonian spokesperson told The Washington Post, adding that it was intended to be a short-term addition to address current events. Now, the exhibit notes that “only three presidents have seriously faced removal.”

    I get it… put it back as soon as he’s gone. Hopefully it’ll be 3 or more by then, with a final successful one

      Bro. He’s a child rapist. They’re not gonna impeach him. They’re not gonna remove him. He’s a child rapist and they’d all gladly lick his asshole live on the House floor.

      Put it back as soon as he’s gone?

      My dude. America has yet to put a single fucking thing back after a Republican takes it.

      Abortions rights. Voting rights. Workers rights. Right to Healthcare. Right to education. Right to transparent government funding (Citizens United) Right to privacy (Patriot Act) Right to fair information. Right to have our taxes go towards social benefits rather than Reaganomics.

      If you’re waiting for anything to change back, no matter how small, it’s not.
