President Donald Trump's handpicked board voted on Thursday to rename the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C., to the Trump-Kennedy Center, the White House announced.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said on social media that the vote was the result of the "unbelievable work President Trump has done over the last year in saving the building. Not only from the standpoint of its reconstruction, but also financially, and its reputation."
Roma Daravi, the center's vice president of public relations, said naming the institution The Donald J. Trump and The John F. Kennedy Memorial Center for the Performing Arts "reflects the unequivocal bipartisan support for America’s cultural center for generations to come."
Ohio Rep. Joyce Beatty, an ex-officio member of the board, posted on X that she had been muted on the call when the vote was taken and was not allowed to make her opposition known.
In February, Trump announced that he was firing the performing arts center's board of trustees and naming himself chairman. He announced that same month that his foreign policy adviser Richard Grenell would serve as the center's interim executive director.
"The Kennedy Center is a living memorial to a fallen president and named for President Kennedy by federal law," former Rep. Joe Kennedy said. "It can no sooner be renamed than can someone rename the Lincoln Memorial, no matter what anyone says

BREAKING: President Donald Trump signed an executive order Dec. 18 to federally classify marijuana as a less dangerous substance, the biggest change for the drug since 1970 and an opportunity for the industry to operate more easily.
Trump’s order would stop classifying marijuana as a Schedule I drug, which includes the most dangerous substances such as heroin, LSD and ecstasy. The Drug Enforcement Administration describes Schedule I substances as having no "medical use and a high potential for abuse."
Instead, Trump ordered that marijuana be classified as a Schedule III drug, which the DEA describes as having "a moderate to low potential for physical and psychological dependence."
