## Resource

A ceiling panel crashed into the Kennedy Center’s red carpet during stormy weather, sparking calls for a two-year shutdown and $250 million in renovations — a move heavily tied to President Trump’s name being slapped back onto the building despite a court ruling banning it. Critics suspect the incident is being weaponized to justify closure and fund-raising, while community groups question the urgency, pointing to past neglect and political theater. Meanwhile, a prominent sculpture was quietly removed — with no explanation — as tensions mount over who controls the nation’s most iconic performing arts venue.
