  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

President Donald Trump’s effort to rebrand the Kennedy Center in his own name is illegal, a federal judge ruled Friday.​
​
U.S. District Judge Christopher Cooper said the rebranding of the institution that honors President John F. Kennedy as the “Trump-Kennedy Center” violated the clear language of federal law that requires the building to honor “President Kennedy and President Kennedy alone.”​
​
The order to revert to the original, longstanding name came as part of a broader ruling that also overturned a plan announced in March to close the center for two years for renovations. Cooper, an Obama appointee, said repairs to the campus can proceed and an outright closure in the future might be lawful if the center’s board is more thoroughly consulted. -Politico ​

You don't need a polymarket wager to know Trump et al will just ignore another court ruling.

What kind of person puts their name on a dead, assassinated president’s memorial?

You’d have to be completely bereft of any moral compass to even think that’s appropriate.

Well he alleges that there have been about four assassination attempts on his life, although they don't stand up to scrutiny, so he probably thinks he's entitled.

Hopefully it won't be a change in name only. The Kennedy family should be permitted to appoint a completely new board of directors.

Trump is on a building spree. Let him build his own center and fill its schedule with C list celebrities.

If he were to hand back the Center to Congress, I hope they will fire his loyalist board and put people who care about the arts back in charge.
