Judge Cites 1984, Orders Trump to Return Slavery Exhibits
February 17, 2026·8 days ago·via CNN
A federal judge invokes George Orwell's 1984 to slam the Trump administration, ordering the return of slavery exhibits yanked from a Philadelphia museum in a move decried as "memory hole" censorship. The ruling accuses Trump officials of erasing history to fit a sanitized narrative, forcing reinstatement amid cries of government overreach into cultural institutions. This activist bench flex highlights liberal double standards: decrying "book bans" while cheering judicial mandates on exhibits.
