Historic preservation groups sue Trump to block Kennedy Center changes "Demolition, new construction, major reconstruction, major renovation, or major aesthetic transformation of the Kennedy Center would permanently destroy historic fabric, degrade the monumental core's vistas and public grounds, and compromise the Kennedy Center's memorial purpose and architectural integrity, causing permanent, irreversible harm that no subsequent remedy can fully undo" #KennedyCenter

"Can the Board of the #KennedyCenter — in direct contradiction of the governing statutes rename this sacred memorial to JFK after DJT? The answer is unequivocally 'no.' By renaming the Center in violation of the law Defendants have breached the terms of the trust and their most basic fiduciary obligations as trustees. Shortly after JFKs assassination, Congress designated the Kennedy Center as the 'sole national memorial to the late' President in the nation's capital."

First day Executive Orders for next President -

1. Rescind all Executive Orders from past President.
2. Disband ICE.
3. Rename Kennedy Centre - assuming it’s still there and not replaced by a Trump Tower.
3. Demolish whatever exists of Ballroom.

Then get to the rest…

It’s the latest instance of #Trump putting his name & likeness on US cultural institutions, following his renaming of the US Institute of Peace #USIP, the #KennedyCenter performing arts venue & a new class of battleships, among other tributes.

The plans come in tandem with an ongoing effort to get Trump’s face on a #coin.

Treasury to put Trump's signature on paper currency in historic move

The Treasury Department plans to print President Donald Trump’s signature on every new U.S. paper bill. Treasury announced the idea Thursday. Treasury says it would mark the first time a sitting president’s signature appears on new currency. The announcement is part of a broader push to put Trump’s name and image on public symbols. Treasury also backs a separate effort for a Trump coin. Earlier this month, a federal arts commission approves a design for a gold commemorative coin with his face.
