This story is crazy. It would appear Trump admin officials rigged their nationally televised high school civics contest to keep a young man from a Sikh family out of the finalists. www.notus.org/national/ame...
Suspicion and Doubt at the National Civics Contest

“It would be laughable if the Smithsonian conspiracy theory and tales of Bible giants … were not a kind of Trojan horse to soften up the public to accept political propaganda in place of history and complete the assault on America’s museums that failed in the 1990s.”
The Super-Weird Origins of the Right’s Hatred of the Smithsonian
The Trump administration has stepped up its antagonism of America’s treasured museums. But conservative antipathy toward the institution began long ago—with the bones of Bible giants.
