The White House has announced they will be reviewing all exhibits at the Smithsonian Institution in order “to assess tone, historical framing, and alignment with American ideals.” Here is a selection of the changes President Trump is demanding be implemented immediately.

New wing about the Cola wars

Plaques updated to confirm that wooly mammoths were white

Artifacts will be returned to the people who originally stole them

Air and Space Museum must loan all planes, shuttles, and gliders to Israel

Portraits and sculptures of nude women relocated to men’s bathroom

Overnight dismantling of anything even resembling disability accommodation

Melania added as newest of the 274 lifelike specimens in the Hall of Mammals

Blindfolds handed out at the entrance to the National Museum of African American History

The Wright brothers will be referred to as the Flight brothers because it just makes more sense 

At least one exhibit about how magic tricks work

Last sentence of all plaques changed to “and they lived happily ever after”
