I have never been to the Newseum in Washington, DC, but the place was on my bucket list. I have made a number of donations to the Newseum and tried to support it when I could. 

But, then yesterday stories started making the rounds that the Newseum was selling two items in their gift shop that had Journalists raising their eyebrows. 

First was the MAGA hat, which is a trademark of Donald Trump, you know the President that says that Journalists are an "enemy of the people."

Second the the store is selling a "Fake News" T-shirt. WTF?

This is the Newseum's summer collection, comeback for their Fall line that will include a, "We Love Vlad" hat and a "Sean Hannity is Real News" T-Shirt.

I can assure you, I'm done with anymore donations to the Newseum and I'm also scratching it off my bucket list of places I want to go. I longer have any interest. 

This tweet from Soledad O'Brien sums up our feelings perfectly.
