About this episode

A federal judge has ordered the restoration of historical signs in national parks that were removed under an executive order by the Trump administration.

A federal judge has ordered the Trump administration to restore historical signs in national parks that were removed under an executive order aimed at erasing content deemed unpatriotic — including references to climate change, slavery, Indigenous history, and LGBTQ+ rights. The judge, Angel Kelley, called the removal an attempt to rewrite history, insisting parks must tell the full story — good, bad, and ugly. Signs about Washington’s slaves, Japanese internment, and Stonewall were among those reinstated before the Fourth of July. The Interior Department labeled the judge a “liberal activist” and plans to appeal, while conservation groups hailed the ruling as a victory for historical truth.
