Judge denies Kennedy Center request for pause in ruling ordering Trump’s name removed from building

A judge denied the Kennedy Center's request to pause a ruling requiring President Donald Trump’s name to be removed from the building. The ruling, issued by U.S. District Judge Christopher Cooper, stated that only Congress could change the Kennedy Center’s name and mandated removal of Trump’s references by Friday. Workers are preparing to remove the name, and the center has updated its website and communications to exclude it.
