Trump halts Kennedy Center tours amid ongoing control dispute and renovations controversy

The Kennedy Center has paused guided tours as Trump presses a court fight to take over the venue, with the administration citing a campus-wide tour review. The tarp covering Trump’s name remains, amid questions about repairs and renovations that critics say reflect mismanagement. A longtime volunteer tour guide highlighted what the center once represented, while the judge has extended an explanation deadline for the tarp’s status, underscoring the broader political clash surrounding the center.
