  6. So much of what is happening because of you know who angers and sickens me. As someone who once worked at The Kennedy Center, this story is another one that breaks my heart.

  10. Historic preservation groups sue Trump to block Kennedy Center changes "Demolition, new construction, major reconstruction, major renovation, or major aesthetic transformation of the Kennedy Center would permanently destroy historic fabric, degrade the monumental core's vistas and public grounds, and compromise the Kennedy Center's memorial purpose and architectural integrity, causing permanent, irreversible harm that no subsequent remedy can fully undo" #KennedyCenter

  11. "Can the Board of the #KennedyCenter — in direct contradiction of the governing statutes rename this sacred memorial to JFK after DJT? The answer is unequivocally 'no.' By renaming the Center in violation of the law Defendants have breached the terms of the trust and their most basic fiduciary obligations as trustees. Shortly after JFKs assassination, Congress designated the Kennedy Center as the 'sole national memorial to the late' President in the nation's capital."

  12. First day Executive Orders for next President -

    1. Rescind all Executive Orders from past President.
    2. Disband ICE.
    3. Rename Kennedy Centre - assuming it’s still there and not replaced by a Trump Tower.
    3. Demolish whatever exists of Ballroom.

    Then get to the rest…

    #US #Treasury working to put Trump's signature on new paper #currency in first for sitting president

    It’s the latest instance of #Trump putting his name & likeness on US cultural institutions, following his renaming of the US Institute of Peace #USIP, the #KennedyCenter performing arts venue & a new class of battleships, among other tributes.

    The plans come in tandem with an ongoing effort to get Trump’s face on a #coin.

  14. Please copy and paste into the form on the website of your Senators and Representative and share with friends. congress.gov/contact-us

    Dear Sen/Rep-

    I urge your immediate intervention regarding the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts and the Board’s recent approval of the President’s request to shut down the center for renovation.

    The Kennedy Center requires no structural overhaul. Congress provides its capital and maintenance budget annually ($32–$43 million) and would be aware of any such needs. Moreover, neither the President nor the Board has provided a public, independent analysis of the building. Demand Congressional oversight and input.

    I urge you to insist that Congressionally designated board members like Representative Joyce Beatty and Senator Mark Warner be included in all board meetings and provided all board information as well as be allowed to vote. The board should be bipartisan; it is no longer. Congress created this memorial, and it should have active and meaningful Congressional oversight. I urge you to co-sponsor or introduce legislation reaffirming Congressional authority over the Center's governance, design and maintenance without delay.

    The Kennedy Center deserves to remain what Congress intended: a dignified, solemn memorial and cultural institution for all Americans -- not another project designed primarily for personal glorification.

  17. "In the last few months Trump has become something like a comic book character running around a town manically trying to steal everything he can get his hands on. Sometimes he gets away with it. Other times he gets repelled. But he just keeps going for his blood lust for power, money, acquiring things has become all that matters."

  18. "President Donald Trump’s second term is so chock-full of corruption and grift that it seems almost too small to mention that the Trump Organization, his private company, just applied for trademarks for 'Trump 250' in conjunction with America’s 250th birthday."

  20. "The Trump Organization plans to make and sell bumper stickers, tote bags, cups, clothing, and golf balls, depriving the U.S. Treasury of any money made from ‘Trump 250’ products.

    In a separate but equally appalling filing, the Kennedy Center board of directors is seeking a trademark for ‘The Trump Kennedy Center’ logo."

  22. CW: ICE, Renée Good, Alex Pretti, Trump, Gunshot sounds, Kennedy Center

    Alt Text: A group of dancers reinact the murders of Renée Good and Alex Pretti by ICE, through interpretive dance, in front of the Kennedy Center which currently has Donald Trump's name slapped on it. At the end of the dance, "Renée" and "Alex" join hands and look out at the Washington Monument.
