Judge Blocks Trump Name at Kennedy Center | Salt Lake City News

A federal judge has blocked efforts to put President Trump’s name on the Kennedy Center, ruling it unconstitutional without Congressional approval — a move that could prevent the institution from collapsing financially. The center, already teetering on the brink with payroll at risk, had planned to rename a plaza and add a second inscription if a $100 million fund was reached — all in hopes of staving off fiscal disaster. Critics see this as a repeat of past legal violations, while safety concerns mount after plaster fell during a storm, narrowly missing a guard. For now, no Trump signage will adorn the building — but the battle over who controls cultural landmarks continues.
