Exhibition of the White House Slams Smithsonian for an American story “ Saper ”

EXCLUSIVE: The Trump administration turns his attention to the Smithsonian Institution, accusing the museum complex funded by taxpayers of using federal dollars to promote what he calls “unilateral political accounts” which cannot honor the greatness of American history.

The head of the White House, Lindsey Halligan, exploded the content currently exposed to the Exhibition of the Nation of Entertainment of the National Museum of American History in an exclusive email at Fox News Digital.

The exhibition, which explores American pop culture, has aroused internal and external criticisms for what some consider a politically responsible for cultural milestones.

“American taxpayers should not finance institutions that undermine our country or promote unilateral and divisive political accounts,” said Halligan. “The Smithsonian institution should present the story in an exact, balanced and consistent way with the values ​​that make the United States of America exceptional.”

The White House declaration comes in the heels of several striking examples of the exhibition.

A sign, presented alongside a 1923 circus poster, reads another, describing the first American entertainment, said: “One of the first determining entertainment features in the United States was extraordinary violence.”

The recovery exhibition of emblematic American characters through a critical and politically loaded lens. On the Lone Ranger, the screen declares: “The relationship of the white title character with Tonto looked like the way the American government imagined the only ranger in the world.”

Mickey Mouse, a beloved American cultural icon, is not spared either. An exhibition for the 1928 cartoon declared to Steamboat Willie, “Mickey challenged authority, but not everyone was on the joke”.

He continues: “Mickey Mouse made his debut as an overhead” Steamboat Willie “in 1928, in the midst of an increasing anxiety felt by many that modern life and urban life eroded family and community ties and loose moral codes … but the disproportionate facial characteristics of the new character, white gloves and the waterproof temperament were long -standing vestiges Mincensy. “

In reference to the Indiana Jones films series, another panel is seen as follows: “His character has embodied a confident justice which, in many ways, captured the essence of the 1980s” above another sous-chef referring to the famous speech of President Ronald Reagan, asking “, are you better?”

A panel calls Magnum, pi a challenge to “popular perceptions of Vietnam veterans as damaged unsuitable”. A section of Jon Stewart’s daily program refers it as “the waiver of viewers who have wary politicians and the declaration process”.

Another panel highlights the late Pop Star Selena Quintanilla-Pérez and supervises its cultural impact by identity policy.

“Selena made us talk about identity”, with a quote from the late singer, “I am very proud to be Mexican.”

The text continues by saying that his work “highlighted the longtime growing cultural and political influence of the American and Latin Mexican communities in the United States”.

“The examples (Fox News Digital) highlighted from the National Museum of American History are part of the problem that the Trump administration aims to solve,” said Halligan. “Framing American culture as intrinsically violent, imperialist or racist does not reflect the greatness of our nation or the millions of Americans who have contributed to its progress.”

Halligan confirmed that a content review from top to bottom was already underway, with the contribution of the senior leaders of Smithsonian and the Board of Regents. “We are working with leadership in the Smithsonian to audit and examine all the content of museums,” she said, “and we are committed to guarantee that this content honors the founding principles of our country, tells the stories of American heroes and does not promote the ideologies of fringes or masked militants.”

She added: “We will provide updates to this audit as our progress takes place.”

The Smithsonian Institution responded to Fox News Digital with the brief written declaration following: “The museum has committed to scholarships and research and research and to continuous impartial presentation.

The institution did not answer specific questions concerning who wrote the exposure of the nation of entertainment, whether external university consultants or militant organizations, or who have made the decision to present all the texts exhibited in English and Spanish.

The controversy comes in the middle of a wider push by President Donald Trump to reshape the cultural institutions which, according to him, have turned too far to the left.

In March, Trump published an executive decree ordering the Board of Regents to eliminate “an inappropriate, dividing or anti-American” ideology of the museums of the Smithsonian. He accused the institution of having adopted what he called “a revisionist movement” aimed at “undermining the remarkable achievements of the United States by throwing its founding principles and its historic stages in a negative light”.

The Council of Regents includes the vice-president, the United States chief judge, six members of the Congress and nine Citizens’ Regents.

Vice-president JD Vance and Congress Carlos GiménezThe two recent nominees pleaded for an accelerated review of the Smithsonian content. Giménez, in an earlier interview with the Wall Street Journal, confirmed tensions at the June meeting of the board of directors on the speed with which to obtain, although a compromise has been reached.

The Smithsonian receives approximately two -thirds of its annual budget of $ 1 billion in federal credits.

The Exhibition of the Entertainment Nation opened in December 2022 and was presented as a permanent exhibition to “celebrate the power of popular culture to shape and reflect history”. It is housed in a space of choice on the western wing of the museum and offers artifacts and media of film, television, sports and music.

While the declared objective of the museum is to explore how entertainment believes itself with American identity, the Trump administration maintains that it rather uses culture to classify in the ideology often in contradiction with the values ​​that most Americans hold.

“The Americans deserve a Smithsonian who inspires national pride, tells the truth and reflects the greatness of this country,” said Halligan. “Not the one who serves as an agent for social change and cultural subversion.”
