Smithsonian rejects Trump ‘anti-American’ charge, noting nonpartisan history

The Smithsonian Institution rejects President Trump's criticism of its nonpartisan history, countering a White House report that accuses it of promoting a 'radical, activist ideology.' The report claims the National Museum of American History downplays U.S. achievements and emphasizes injustices, but Smithsonian officials and academics argue it is an attempt to impose a nationalistic vision of American history.
