The Eisenhower Presidential Library’s director has exited his position after advocating against giving a sword from the collection to King Charles as a gift during Donald Trump’s recent state visit, according to US media reports on Thursday.

Todd Arrington left his post on Monday after being told to “resign or be fired”, he told CBS News, which did not specify who had relayed the message to the historian.

The library and museum – located in former US president Dwight D Eisenhower’s home town in Abilene, Kansas – is part of the National Archives and Records Administration (Nara).

    No. Being for colonization is racist bullshit. Being against colonization is anti-racist humanism. It is humanist to call for reduction and limitation of USA and Commonwealth, with no irony.

    But I’m not calling for that because it’s useless, just saying that I’ll enjoy the part where their superiority feeling will be finally firmly matched with reality. I won’t enjoy the parts where they’ll try to take revenge for it upon whoever they can.
