Ever wondered what would happen if you handed over the keys to the Smithsonian—and every dusty display case inside—to a president whose favorite idea of American history is the Home Alone 2 cameo? Well, slip on your museum-quality white gloves (or maybe blindfolds?) because here we are .

Plaques updated to confirm that wooly mammoths were white
Artifacts will be returned to the people who originally stole them
Air and Space Museum must loan all planes, shuttles, and gliders to Israel
