Trump orders warning signs at Smithsonian to claim history is misrepresented

TL;DR Summary
President Donald Trump issued an executive order directing warning signs to be posted outside the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History, claiming the exhibits present inaccurate information about American history and directing the Interior Department to install signs and point visitors to sources of 'accurate information.' The move follows a White House assessment that the Smithsonian cannot be trusted to tell America’s story honestly, while Smithsonian officials defend the museum's scholarship.
