Yup not a sane country. McCarthyism partners with Stalinism.
The current US President is directing the #Smithsonian to down play how bad an International Crime Against Humanity is.
Think about that carefully, the goal of Making America Great is achieved by disregarding and hiding a Crime Against Humanity.
Mr. Trump also said that the Smithsonian focused too much on βhow bad slavery was.β
The United Nations & International Criminal Court Hereβs how the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court (ICC) stated Enslavement is a Crime Against Humanity. #Smithsonain
This statement is not hyperbole, under Stalin people and events were purged. Original image Stalin with high-ranking party members: Nikolai Antipov, Sergei Kirov, & Nikolai Shvernik. As an individual fell from favor or was purged, they were retouched out of the photo until only Stalin remained

I am a supporter of the Smithsonian Institution. I have found their coverage fair. It is a public private partnership. I funded 2 endowments and both indicate that the Board of Regents would direct their usage. Nothing about the Executive branch having exclusive oversight.#Smithsonian

This is a famous example of Soviet photographic censorship during Joseph Stalinβs rule. β’ Left image (before editing): Stalin is standing next to Nikolai Yezhov, the head of the NKVD (secret police) during the height of the Great Purge. They are on the Moscow Canal, both in military-style coats and hats. β’ Right image (after editing): Yezhov has been entirely removed. The empty space where he stood has been filled in with an extended section of the canal water and background, making it appear as though Stalin was alone
While it does have a representative of the President in the Vice President it is an independent group. Erasing history is a very dangerous and slippery slope as seen under Stalin. Leon Trotsky and Lev Kamenev as just 2 examples. Killed and removed from history.

I am pissed to put it mildly. The Smithsonian is a public/private partnership with the private money covering the majority of βtenant improvementsβ like signage. I have funded 2 endowments with them
