Trump’s Name Removed From Kennedy Center

President Trump’s name is no longer on the Kennedy Center.  An official at the center told a federal judge over the weekend that all references to Trump inside, outside and on its website have been removed in compliance with the court’s order.  One tourist said he was glad to be able to take it all in.

Crews began removing the lettering from the building before dawn Saturday, six months after a board handpicked by the president approved adding his name to the iconic performing arts venue.  The change came after an appeals court denied the Kennedy Center’s request for a pause Friday night.
