U.S. President Joe Biden has cancelled his predecessor’s plans to build a National Garden of American Heroes, which would have memorialized figures ranging from George Washington to Kobe Bryant.
In an executive order signed Friday, Biden rescinded six Trump actions, including two outlining plans for the garden and a third calling for harsh prison sentences for anyone convicted of vandalizing existing monuments, reports the Associated Press.

President Joe Biden recently rescinded several of former President Donald Trumpâs executive orders, one of which called for the creation of a National Garden of American Heroes.
In an executive order announced by the White House Friday, Biden revoked several executive orders signed by his predecessor, including Executive Order 13934, which Trump signed on July 3, 2020. Executive Order 13934, which called for âBuilding and Rebuilding Monuments for American Heroes,â authorized the creation of a National Garden of American Heroes to âdepict historically significant Americans ⦠who have contributed positively to America throughout our history.â

Remember the daily photo ops at the White House as Joe Biden signed executive orders to advance his agenda in the early days of his term as president? Biden, a career politician in the U.S. Senate and then a vice-president, knows full well that his far-left political agenda will not fly with at least half of the American people. He chooses instead to will his wish list of initiatives and policies into reality by signing executive orders and actions, thus going around Congress. Along the way, Biden has also scrapped as many of Trump’s executive orders as possible.
