The Smithsonian said on Aug. 2 that it was not compelled by any presidential administration or government official to remove references to President Donald Trump’s two impeachments from an exhibit and plans to include them in an updated display “in the coming weeks.”

Some had criticized the museum after discovering that Trump was no longer included in an exhibit of impeached presidents at the National Museum of American History on the National Mall in Washington.
