Trump orders a commission to celebrate America's 250th birthday
Trump signed an executive order Wednesday to establish a White House task force to celebrate the nation's 250th birthday on July 4, 2026.
It also assigned the assistant to the president for domestic policy to recommend figures for the "National Garden of American Heroes" -- a Trump push from his first term to display statues of influential Americans.
According to the new order, he wants to bring the total number of people included in the garden to 250.
