President Donald Trump has dismissed some members of the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Council, the White House confirmed on April 30.

“President Trump looks forward to appointing new individuals who will not only continue to honor the memory of those who perished in the Holocaust, but who are also steadfast supporters of the State of Israel,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told The Epoch Times in an email.
