Trump’s name removal from Kennedy Center pushed to Saturday due to thunderstorms
The removal of President Donald Trump's name from the Kennedy Center was postponed to Saturday because of thunderstorms. A federal judge denied a request to pause the order, and the appeals court also rejected the government's pause request. The court affirmed that only Congress can rename the venue, a point emphasized by the lawsuit filed by Rep. Joyce Beatty.
