The project is being curated by Colleen Shogan, the U.S. archivist who was fired without explanation by Trump last year. Bush went on: “George Washington’s humility in giving up power willingly remains among the most consequential decisions and important examples in American politics.” It is where Shogan now practices her archivist craft that Trump shut down by firing her in February 2025. The White House did not respond when asked why Trump fired the archivist and whether the administration will tell Congress the reason.
