President’s medal or Freedom!
Which was not deserved.
None of those people deserves an award but Trump rewards his sycophants.
NEW CHAIRMAN OF THE KENNEDY CENTER IMPOSED
Dismiss the bass.
Silence the wind.
Send the oboes home.
Fling the flutes.
Torch the triangle.
Sever strings on the harp.
Stop the metronome...

Ted Nugent. Hulk Hogan Dr. Phil. Dr. Oz.

On the bright side very soon you can get exclusive Trump products in the gift shoppe.
President Temu!
They'll get second rate shills in.
But Trump won't give a stuff. The fewer of those sort of people in the way of the Project 2025 intention to remake culture in its own warped image the better as far as he is concerned.
His stupid apprentice show couldn't even beat the Amazing Race....at the time He claimed the Emmy's to be Rigged, the outcome fixed, that he was treated SO Unfairly, sound familiar?
Respond calmly yet firmly to any abuse of power and injustice.
Reclaim your courage standing, defending but not harming.

Kennedy Center until this reign of terror is over and freedom of expression and speech is restored.
For Art is Love.
But, Trump is hate..!
I take mine with a huge grain of salt.
Besides, i predict Trump won't last that long.

It’s been operating just fine without DT. Why is he naming himself chairman? What president does this? Unbelievable! What’s next? 😡🥵
When he doesn't get that, he tries to destroy.
Been going on since he tried to buy his way into the NFL.
He doesn't understand and it gnaws at him.
I hope that subscriptions tank.
Yet another TV show to boycott.
Yay.
Straight from the dictator playbook - destroy culture - 1984??
And then you all complain why people don't want to vote anymore?
Refuse Resist Reclaim

More prestigious people who quit=less likely $$ comes in.
Board chairman who Trump replaced donated $111 million to Kennedy Center. Trump’s KC will be a financial mess!
It's not like MAGAts go to the shows at the Kennedy Center--
maybe if they bring in WWE & cage fighting, but not opera and ballet.
The key is to leave them an empty kingdom to rule over.
And now the orange fascist clown can appoint puppy killers, racists, rapists, bigots, and his other Nazi worshipers.
