   Lost in Trump's flurry of EOs is the "Celebrating America's 250th Birthday" proclamation he signed on Jan 29.

   For anyone concerned with historical revisionism and right-wing attacks on knowledge, this is something startling.

   To me, it looks like a move to wrest control of the anniversary away from the America 250 Commission that was created through an act of Congress in 2016.

   Trump has called for a new White House "Task Force" on the upcoming Semiquincentennial.
