BWAHAHAHA! Somebody still managed to snap a pic of the D coming off. This was posted by MSNOW.

#KennedyCenter #Trump


So #Trump managed to delay the removal of his name from the #KennedyCenter with a last minute court action, which resulted in the name coming off in the early hours of the morning. He also required a tarp to be put up on the scaffolding to try to limit video of cheering as his name was removed. But Reuters and Rep Beatty are saying this morning his name is OFF THE BUILDING!


That name came off The #KennedyCenter sometime early morning Saturday. today. The name has also been removed from all signage and other identification for The Kennedy Center. However, all the #performingarts have ceased thanks to this debacle. #music #thearts #opera #nationalsymphony #orchestra #musicians #culture #arts #history #jfk #DC #washingtonDC


The deadline for removing Trump's name from the Kennedy Center is midnight tonight.

Here are a couple of live streams showing the removal of Trump's name from the Kennedy Center:

#KennedyCenter board to fight order to remove #Trump’s name as deadline looms

The center’s board of trustees on Thursday voted to seek a stay of US District Judge Christopher Cooper’s directive to take Trump’s name off the center’s exterior by Friday because, as Cooper wrote, the #law states Congress gave the center its name, & only Congress can change it.

The #KennedyCenter Enters the Unknown

It may or may not close. #Trump says he’ll abandon it. And the fight isn’t over.

For months, the dwindling ranks of staffers at the Kennedy Center have been bracing for July, when the Washington, DC, #arts complex had been slated to shut down. How the bruised institution would bounce back after a 2-year closure ordered by the president of the United States—& what it would look like once it did—were major questions.

Judge Orders #Trump Name Off #KennedyCenter, & He Throws A Tantrum

Judge Christopher R. Cooper, of the Federal District Court in Washington, determined that the board’s decision to add Trump’s name to the #KennedyCenter violated a #law passed by #Congress in 1964 that made “crystal clear” the institution was to be named for former President #JohnFKennedy.

“Congress gave the Kennedy Center its name, & only Congress can change it,” the judge wrote in a 94-page opinion.
