Biden revokes Trump order for ‘Garden of heroes’

President Biden on Friday signed an executive order revoking two measures issued by formerPresident Trump over the summer in response to protests against racial injustice that targeted monuments of controversial Americans.

Biden’s order revokes multiple Trump actions, including one that prioritized punishment for those caught vandalizing statues or monuments, as well as an order that established a “National Garden of American Heroes” that called for erecting statues of hundreds of prominent Americans.

The order signed Friday also revokes a May 2020 order signed by Trump that directed federal agencies to review Section 230, a law that provides protections to social media companies. The move came as Trump and his allies fumed over social media censorship when Twitter began flagging Trump’s false tweets about mail voting and incendiary comments around the racial injustice protests.
