Double rainbow appears over Kennedy Center during name-removal preparations

Cindy McMillin38

We the people paid for those letters, paid to put them up, paid to take them down and likely paid a premium for middle of the night work. Everything he does is with our money. Keep pointing out what he costs us.

Andy Heppelle🇺🇸🇨🇦🏳️‍🌈🇺🇦🇬🇱🇺🇳🏳️‍⚧️27

Thank you @apnews.com for capturing the iconic moment when the facade of The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts was restored to honor and dignity, when DJT’s name was removed, like scrubbing a spray tan stain out of the fabric of our history and culture. Thank you @repbeatty.bsky.social🇺🇸

Even the name removal was a cover up

Trump is a man baby. He always has been.

Nothin’ but Blue Skies from now on114

This was always going to be the case. Said so last night. He hides everyrhing -his grades -his taxes -his bald spot -taking fucking letters off a building —-his sick acts in the Epstein files “The most transparent presidency ever”

AlexPretti'sGhost65

WAPO has a pic - it ain't much, but it's something.

M Blue59

Whomever decided that putting the curtain up would make this LESS of a spectacle was very wrong 😂

He can’t remove our hatred of him or our awareness of all his coverups, no matter how many tarps they hang.

Trump does like covering things up. Like the Epstein files.

Democracy Worker22

Why would we expect anything other than a strange cocktail of privilege & cowardice? When they remove that curtain, his name will be gone from the Kennedy Center, there will be no denying it was removed bc a court didn’t bend the knee — and it happened with a crowd of witnesses.

The narcissists scream can be heard across the world. Absolutely no concept of truth or transparency. I 💗 this moment 4 him. 🥰🇦🇺

He deserves people cheering while they're watching his name being removed!

John Carr19

Has it actually all gone now? This must be the most visual evidence that finally trump is loosing. An petty action from the beginning which ought to prove to everyone his narcissistic nature to everyone. I hope that before and after images will be widely shared including in the classical media.

lawnmaker.bsky.social16

Is trump the first president to have his name removed from a federal building?

xxmyoung1771.bsky.social16

I know it'll never happen, but I feel like Trump should have to pay a fine when they have to take down everything he's done to put his name on things that don't fall under the standard purview for a president.

Irish Wristwatch15

Those curtains alone cost more than what 40% of Americans make in a year.

Johnnybee13

He knew that video of it being removed would go viral.

He just wanted to add more cost to what we have to pay for the entire bunch of nonsense.

Civilization10

Ha Ha, Piggy lost ! What sort of weirdo freak tries to add his name to an existing memorial? A place designed to preserve the memory of a person. A focal point for remembrance, honoring those who have passed in a less formal, celebratory style than a traditional funeral. Why not do a tombstone?

The tarp of shame. His ego simply could not take it. I'm sure he was frothing at the mouth screaming into the cell phone demanding they hide it from the public, little pools of white spittle clinging to the corners of that cat's asshole beneath his nose...

Yes. It absolutely screams both "insecure" and "adolescent".

I wish I could pay no attention to that man behind the curtain.

“Pay no attention to the desperate cry for attention behind the curtain!” Huh… never realized Trump is the Scarecrow, Tin Man, and Cowardly Lion all at once. He has no brain, heart, or courage.

A curtain! So that's what all the scaffolding was about, Trump's little mushroom ego vs. posterity! A couple of guys in a cherry picker could have knocked his name off and be done with it. Hide the Ketchup!

they could have just scissor lifted like when they put it up, and would have gotten minimal coverage. he doesnt care what kind of attention, he needs us yo be talking abt him, good or bad at all times. he will not let us be joyful.

🌎𝙷𝚎𝚒𝚍𝚒3

Maybe the tarp was for worker protection. I would be worried if I were up on scaffolding. I’m certain some of the people watching are not good guys. I’m glad his name is coming off. The Kennedy Center is one more thing we will have to restore. I’ve seen plays, the orchestra, and ballet there.

Michael Hoffman2

TrumpleThinSkin thinks he's "owing the libs" by hiding the workers as they take down his name, but it just focuses even more on how much of a fucking crybaby loser he is.

daniel7680.bsky.social2

Dang democrats….if you would have sold small hammers and the right to help beat tRumps name off the side of the Kennedy Center you could have paid off the national debt!!!

In defense of the workers. Putting up a curtain during demolition work is a safety practice. If a passerby is struck by debris it's their asses.

This Bitch Resists2

People at all levels--especially workers--are required for a nation to become and remain fascist. What would have happened if those guys just refused to put the cover up and started removing letters? More Americans would've been empowered to stand up. RefuseFascism.org

Guessing we’re paying for this

Celeste Headlee44

They could launch an entire streaming service dedicated to live video of his name being removed, the gilt crap being sanded off of White House walls, the Rose Garden being returned to its former beauty. It could be the Detox Channel.

Jane Doe27

He can put his name all over the world, but it doesn't change who he is.

Martin24

But at least we can have a party with each one🤣🥳

michele collins23

the only reason it was slow is because turnip is still in power. Once he is out of office, his nonsense will be dismantled quickly.

Josette20

Because stalling and playing the legal system is his life’s blood. But make no mistake his stain will be removed and his name reviled in history.

trump's thinskinned narcissism is a textbook example for every American, especially when he faces disappointments. Let's hope for a long, nonstop line of disappointments for the felon occupying the WH.

dfprovine9

A great fundraising idea for the Kennedy Center would be to put the letters of Trump's name in a gravel pit somewhere and charge people $10 for five minutes smashing them with a sledgehammer.

Jessie Lynn7

So is the name off the building this morning? I can’t tell yet

And we will all watch him be taken down from the highchair.

When he's gone I expect they can find competent people to remove all trace of him not the contractors approved by trump.

There is a rancid stench centering in DC, strong in MarALago, New Jersey but experienced throughout the country. It will slowly dissipate as the years go on but will leave a black mark in US history.

Clairvie3

It was only this slow because the assholes are still in charge.

MSE tree3

It’s not just Trump - the Kennedy center Board is a group of sycophants that have to go before a return to normalcy. Trumps sycophants need to be rooted out - and charged - so they don’t just lie dormant for the next gamma be facist dictator.

Dr. Marina Archer3

And it's going to be extremely expensive. We will not be able to claw back all the money they have wasted/grifted/misappropriated. They ran up the deficit w/ war/grift (just as the GOP has done in the past) & then use it to take away even MORE from Americans. Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security.

ANGEL - BadAss Resister2

Once his gone, we can move lightening fast.

They need to take back all the corruption money they stole too. This is important since they will use it to retake power.

Green Hombre2

The De-Trumpification of the USA has begun!

You are cute. We speak about fascism, not just a little flow in US history. Full hatch fascism, mixed with nazis and white supremacist. One judge took the name of Trump away from one building, in the same time, Trump administration killed dozens of people.

Yet again he thumbs his nose at following the rules and laws we are meant to abide by. Instead, he invented a spectacle, a swirling chaos that swallowed the entire fucking day and the letters didn’t come down till 3:33 AM. 3 hours and 33 minutes late. Hidden beneath a cloak of redundancy. Fitting

But it did the opposite of the purpose. It just drew more attention to the process. If they had zipped up there on cherry pickers to take the letters down like they did to put then up; it would have been over in no time. Zip, zip we're done. Nothing to see here, folks.

mjlinde.bsky.social2

The reason they're "covering this up", (emphasis on covering up!) as well, is that as soon as they remove that curtain, thousands of photos will be taken to document it, as well those witnessing it in person! And it will become HISTORY, and it will never go away, despite their failed attempts! 😉 📜

Fortunately, the installers used silicone to attach the letters as they came off by hand with minimal damage to the building but that shows that the scaffold was unnecessary and was just to hang that tarp so that child Trump wouldn't see it on TV

In the time it took them to put up the tarp they could have had the job done but Trump couldn't tolerate the optics of the removal. Everything he does is behind a curtain of deception.

I suppose another suit will need to be filed to get the damn tarp removed. The shear nonsense of what this man does is incredible. We're all so damn sick of it! Just sick of it...

Bert in Colorado6

They took down his name. Now it’s time to take down the person.

Marta6

How do I really know his name has been removed when there’s a tarp on it? I don’t believe a freaking word he says! Why aren’t Democrats demanding to see behind the tarp that he shrouded over the Kennedy center?

Dave Nelson 🇨🇦5

Is the tarp removed? Or does it remain to obscure Kennedy

I’m cautiously happy. I’m waiting to see it for myself.

Michael Wolfe5

The tarp is essentially a giant screen. Someone with a projector do your thing! Epstein stuff, 8647, Trump as a whiny baby. Be creative. 🙏

They can hide behind a tarp all they like, but I can feel the humiliation of the tyrant all the way from the opposite coast. Feels like the 4th of July. Let Freedom Ring, bitches 🇺🇸🎊

As pleasing as it is to know that Uncle Scam's name is no longer diminishing the facing of the Kennedy Center, it will be magnitudes more gratifying when his name is unredacted for all to see in the Epstein files.

Jazzy girl 🐸💙🐾3

But we are happy even though they are hiding it. This just makes it more shameful for putting his name on it in the first place.

Patricia3

They kept it covered to suppress our collective joy, because joy is too woke for them.

gmomwoz.bsky.social3

Do they not want Trump to see his name is gone, or are they waiting to replace his name if an appeals process goes through.

K Wilde3

So far, the only evidence it was complete is Jim Acosta saying so. How did he get behind the tarp to check? Thus, many of us are just trusting it's done and nursing a sleep-deprivation hangover.

Trump has named the tarp after himself.

amvet.bsky.social2

Because man-baby knew it was wrong to put his name up On it in the first place ! It was a memorial to JFK & the arts. JFK knew how important the arts are to a Country & supported them. can't wait for him & his criminal family & crew are gone forever & his name taken down from everything.

Renee2

Where’s the picture of it gone? How can anyone believe these ppl without proof. Take the tarp down

Oh, IDK, the fact that he had it covered to remove it made me smile as big as the story I read about Phil Mickelson being permanently kicked out of his home town golf club for groping an employee did.

The tarp is still up and there's no definitive info about when it will come down, but the Kennedy Center says his name has been removed. Still, we want to see it for real, so I hope that tarp gets removed soon.

Christian Petersen10

Removing Trump's name from the Kennedy Center is so great... but I really wish I could remove his name from my brain.

The last woman really nailed it: “You don’t put your own name on it, IF YOU’RE CIVILIZED.” CIVILIZED: -Acting in a polite, reasonable and refined manner. -Characterized by rational behavior, not aggression or impulsiveness. How pathetic that we have a ‘President’ who is not even civilized.

elle4

the pig’s name is still on the building. Everybody keeps saying the name is off the building. Not true until the tarp comes off and we can see it for real. So whose orders are the scaffold worker guys following? Someone needs to interview them! It’s nearing 9 pm. a day after the Friday deadline.

Be a shame if that curtain caught fire.

Used the bucket when putting his name on it to show the world. Used scaffolding and tarp to take it down to hide his humiliation and prevent us from celebrating. In violation of the court order which was to remove it yesterday. His contempt for the rule of law on display as well.

Trump's name is also on the JFK Performing Arts Center letterhead, correspondence & is attached to everything else one would find the JFK Performing Arts Center label. Like his own business. The board members Trump appointed must be removed as well.

Oppositional Defiance Disorder. He will never do what he is told. He will always find a way to retaliate against any order, go against what he is being told to do, against what advisors tell him, he is unmanageable and always has been. Combined with his extreme narcissism makes him one sick puppy.

The longer the tarp remains the worse it looks for the person who demanded it be placed there in the first case … to prevent the public from seeing his name removed. So embarrassing.

Trump gets his name redacted once again. Just like the Epstein files.

Someone (sorry, I can't remember whom to credit) suggested that messages about Trump's corruption and the Epstein coverup should be projected onto the tarp. Does anyone know anyone who might be capable of this public service?

Do we have any proof his name has been removed?

Yup. Was just thinking the same. #tarpgate

This name removal scam is just a microcosm of how trump has operated his whole criminal career. Abusing the court system to obtain delays to his benefit and deny justice. Trump has proven how vulnerable our rule of law really was, and he has consistently been able to make a mockery of our courts.

Imagine the sheer horror of having this defiant brat as a child was for his parents.

I'm also curious about all the memorabilia, artwork, and historical artifacts that somehow disappeared from the Kennedy Center. Who has it, where is it, and who made money off of it? I have a guess about that too.

I had much the same question that started when I was wondering why TF they were putting up scaffolding when 2 men in a scissor lift could have removed those letters in an hour. Shenanigans are afoot & the Judge needs to slap Trump & order it removed and personally fine him the cost of the scaff.

Trump will have the Kennedy name removed as part of his "restoration" of the Center. If he can't have his name up there then Kennedy can't either.

I have a guess too… it stays up as long as Trump is in power. Im actually surprised it doesn’t have his picture on it, to be honest.

And will our tax dollars pay for some unfortunate police officers or military personnel to stand guard over it?

Until such time as there is a no-bid, multimillion dollar contract to paint the entire building 'reflecting blue'
