Eisenhower Library director resigned in Oct 2025 after refusing to give away a historic sword to Trump's gift for King Charles III.
Todd Arrington, director of the Dwight D. Eisenhower Presidential Library, resigned in October 2025 after refusing to release a historic Eisenhower sword to the Trump administration for a gift to King Charles III during a UK state visit.
Arrington, a career federal employee, said he was told he could no longer be trusted with confidential information and was pressured to comply or be fired.
He maintained the sword, part of the public collection, could not be given away and worked with State Department officials to secure a replica from West Point, which was ultimately presented.
The resignation followed unrelated concerns involving the Eisenhower Foundation, which Arrington denied.
The National Archives and White House did not comment due to the ongoing government shutdown.
