They lied about the Kennedy Center Board being unanimous on changing their name to the Trump - Kennedy Center [View all]

The White House says the Kennedy Center board vote was â€œunanimousâ€â€¦

BULLSHIT.

@repbeatty.bsky.social, a Congressional member of the board, was on the call. They muted her and didn't let her voice opposition.

This is beyond absurd, totally illegal, and a disgrace to the memory and legacy of JFK.
