## Resource

A federal judge has ordered the Kennedy Center to remove Donald Trump’s name from its facade, ruling the Trump administration illegally added it — and the deadline to comply was Friday. Despite this, the very board Trump appointed is rushing to court to pause the ruling, arguing that only Congress can change the name. The controversy erupted after Trump took over leadership, renamed the center the “Trump Kennedy Center,” and sparked mass resignations and protests from artists. The judge’s order also halted major renovations set to begin this summer. Internally, the Kennedy Center is already complying — its website and event communications now omit Trump’s name — while the board pushes back, voting to seek a stay and passing a resolution praising Trump’s “commitment” to the institution. Tensions are high as legal and public relations battles collide. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
