A White House official told NBC News that Trump plans to expand his review of museums beyond the Smithsonian, which is based in Washington, D.C.

On Truth Social, President Trump said he’s directing his attorneys to review the Smithsonian and explore options to “get the woke out.” The White House wants museums to celebrate American exceptionalism and remove divisive narratives;

CBS Mornings” host Tony Dokoupil agreed with President Trump’s stance to eliminate the sins of America’s past being portrayed in Smithsonian museums.

President Trump continued his crusade against the Smithsonian museum, on Tuesday saying he has instructed his attorneys to "go through the Museums" the same way that the administration has investigated universities nationwide.

Through its 21 museums, 21 libraries, 14 education and research centers and a zoo, the Smithsonian Institution’s collections are expansive and cover every aspect of U.S. history, including more than 200 years of slavery.

President Trump is reigniting a debate over how Americans speak about diversity after saying the Smithsonian museums focus on how bad the country is.

CNN host Abby Phillip ripped into President Donald Trump’s claim that the “woke” Smithsonian focuses too much on the evils of slavery. Trump, 79, made the complaint in a social media post on Tuesday,

"The Museums throughout Washington, but all over the Country are, essentially, the last remaining segment of "WOKE," he wrote.

The president says the collection of museums shouldn’t focus so heavily on things like slavery and other negative aspects of American history.

Many Smithsonian employees are reportedly “scared” of the White House’s offensive. Given the circumstances, it’s tough to blame them.
