Trump ties Kennedy Center overhaul to his name amid legal block

President Trump says the Kennedy Center overhaul must include his name and funding, warning it could be ripped down without his backing; the center’s board voted to close for a two-year renovation, with Congress approving $257 million but the Justice Department saying more than $100 million in Trump-led fundraising is needed. A federal judge blocked adding the inscription “renovated and restored by Donald J. Trump” and the DOJ has appealed; the judge may also rule on whether the temporary closure violates prior orders.
