Improper ideology ...

Echos of 1984 keep cropping up relating to the administration from hell. This time, the push to eliminate liberal thinking espoused by the Smithsonian, a beloved institution for the ages.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump on Thursday revealed his intention to force changes at the Smithsonian Institution with an executive order that targets funding for programs that advance “divisive narratives” and “improper ideology,” the latest step in a broadside against culture he deems too liberal.

Trump claimed there has been a “concerted and widespread” effort over the past decade to rewrite American history by replacing “objective facts” with a “distorted narrative driven by ideology rather than truth,” adding that it casts the “founding principles” of the United States in a “negative light.”

The order he signed behind closed doors puts Vice President JD Vance, who serves on the Smithsonian Institution’s Board of Regents, in charge of overseeing efforts to “remove improper ideology” from all areas of the institution, including its museums, education and research centers, and the National Zoo.

So saith Agent Orange, an ignorant man without humor, culture or curiosity, 

aspiring to be Big Brother without question.

Don't worry, we have a sleazy used car salesman who will protect us from god forbid, liberal thinking.
