(WND)—An appeals court has reversed a lower court judge’s incorrect order that demanded the administration of President Donald Trump restore to national parks the propaganda it had removed earlier.
For example, a “junior ranger” book for children had blasted “white enslavers” and another condemned “European colonists.”
The politicized statements were installed under the administration of Joe Biden, and Trump ordered the comments removed to allow for simple explanations of the parks and the nation.
It was U.S. District Judge Angel Kelley, an appointee picked by the far-left Democrat Biden, who issued the now-reversed demand.
Trump’s executive order had banned “corrosive ideology” that Biden had installed at National Park Service properties.
Now a report at Just the News explains the 1st Circuit Court of Appeals found the Trump administration “made a strong showing that the harms that the district court relied on” in its decision had not met the requirements for an injunction.
Further, the appeals court ruled those suing to have the propaganda restored “cannot show that a stay of the district court’s order…would cause them substantial injury.”
The order by the Trump administration was for the NPS to review all public-facing content not only for messaging that disparages Americans, but also for messages that “emphasizes matters unrelated to the beauty, abundance, or grandeur” of natural features, the report said.
The order led to dozens of signs and exhibits being removed from the National Mall, which prompted a leftist group called Democracy Forward to sue.
WorldNetDaily previously reported that a prominent commentary website had noted that rulings such at that ordering the signs back are “crippling” the U.S. Constitution.
It is the Washington Examiner that carried the details the Trump administration delivered to Kelley, who ordered materials removed under Trump’s executive order barring “corrosive ideology” that Biden had installed at National Park Service properties be put back.
The anti-“white enslavers” reference was at the Fort Raleigh National Historic Site in North Carolina and the anti-“European colonists” appeared at Buck Island Reef National Monument.
“The Trump administration told the court that most of the removed material was disparaging to ‘Americans past or living,’ including an exhibit at the First State National Historical Park in Delaware about Founding Father Caesar Rodney, which described him as someone who enslaved others when discussing his role in the American Revolution,” the report said.
The Department of Justice listed for Kelley, who had demanded the information, 57 items that disparaged Americans but would have been restored under Kelley’s demands.
One is at Acadia National Park in Maine where two signs referenced climate change and Native Americans. At Theodore Roosevelt Island a sign discussed the “racial aspects” of his policies.
Trump’s officials said they were editing materials to remove “politically charged matters.”
