Trump Is Taking a Wrecking Ball to the Woke Smithsonian | Mike Gonzalez https://youtu.be/J149COSKSOg?si=ZbkIieWiYCpg0H9U For years, America’s cultural institutions have been used to promote a left-wing interpretation of American history, and the Smithsonian became a prime example. Mike Gonzalez, Senior Fellow with the Heritage Foundation, argues that the Trump administration is now reversing that “long march through the institutions” and demanding that America’s museums present a more accurate account of the nation’s heritage. Bradley Devlin and Gonzalez also discuss how the American people helped defeat the first wave of woke ideology—and why conservatives must stay vigilant against a rebranded “Woke 2.” “ There's a more traditional time-tested role for national museums, and that is to preserve and transmit to future generations the culture and heritage of a country. “These things do not get passed on in the bloodstream. They need to be taught to every generation. National museums play a large role in that. “And these people, these leaders, do not see it that way. And they need to be fired. They need to be replaced.”

A federal judge just cleared the way for the Trump administration to end deportation protections for Ethiopian migrants. The Boston judge lifted a hold on the decades-old Temporary Protected Status program after DHS determined conditions in Ethiopia had improved enough to end the protections. The ruling means Ethiopian nationals covered by TPS could now lose their ability to legally live and work in the U.S. It’s also the latest win for the administration’s TPS rollback after the Supreme Court allowed similar moves involving Haiti and Syria
