WASHINGTON — The White House lashed out against the Smithsonian Institution’s leadership Monday, accusing the network that runs 21 museums of “extreme political activism” and failing to celebrate America. In a blistering 162-page report ordered by President Trump last year, the White House Domestic Policy Council concluded that the institute’s current leadership “cannot be trusted to tell America’s story honestly and in a way that is inspiring, unifying, and worthy of our great republic. ” “[National Museum of American History] NMAH, by the intention and at the direction of current Museum and Smithsonian leadership, has become subject to institutional capture by a radical, activist ideology that is fundamentally opposed to telling the noble, honest story of the great country we know and love,” the report said.
