BREAKING: TOTAL SURRENDER! The Kennedy Center moves to fully comply with a federal judge by removing Donald Trump's name from every inch of the building.

He's so defeated that he's not even putting up a fight...

The center's general counsel sent out an official memo earlier today directing employees to begin stripping Trump's name from all materials including brochures, signs, and the official website. Email signatures and letterhead must be changed immediately.

The sweeping direction comes less than a week after U.S. District Judge Christopher Cooper ruled that the Kennedy Center Board — which is staffed with MAGA hatchet men — did not have the authority to tack their cult leader's name onto the beloved institution. The new memo is the first time that the Board has publicly conceded that they will heed the judge's order.

In his ruling, Cooper tore into the board for using “an insufficient, one-sided presentation of information” when it moved to close the center. Additionally, federal law “makes crystal clear” that the center is named after JFK and only JFK.

“Congress gave the Kennedy Center its name and only Congress can change it," wrote Cooper.

Beyond just directing the removal of Trump's name, the memo provides specific deadlines for compliance. This is not some abstract "we'll get to it eventually" response. This is concrete compliance.

This victory over MAGA is particularly sweet because the renaming of the Kennedy Center, as petty as it is, is something that Trump cares deeply about. It's part of his broader obsession with building and renovating structures after himself
. He knows that his presidency is a historic failure and he's desperately grasping for some semblance of a legacy. Now, he's being denied even that.

Please ❤️ and share if you're thrilled to see the Kennedy Center restored to its dignity!
