Friday's Final Word
A federal judge has ordered the removal of President Trump's name from the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, stating that only Congress has the authority to change the name. The ruling emphasizes that the center was established by a law that clearly designated it to honor President Kennedy. This decision comes amid discussions about a proposed commemorative $250 bill featuring Trump's portrait, which raises questions about the appropriateness of depicting living leaders on currency.
