GOLDEN AGE OF ART AND CULTURE: President Trump Fires Kennedy Center Board Members, Names Himself Chairman

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


President Donald Trump announced on Friday that he is firing most of the board of trustees for the Kennedy Center, and naming himself chairman.

At my direction, we are going to make the Kennedy Center in Washington D.C., GREAT AGAIN. I have decided to immediately terminate multiple individuals from the Board of Trustees, including the Chairman, who do not share our Vision for a Golden Age in Arts and Culture. We will soon announce a new Board, with an amazing Chairman, DONALD J. TRUMP! Just last year, the Kennedy Center featured Drag Shows specifically targeting our youth — THIS WILL STOP.

The Kennedy Center is an American Jewel, and must reflect the brightest STARS on its stage from all across our Nation. For the Kennedy Center, THE BEST IS YET TO COME!

“We are going to make the Kennedy Center in Washington D.C., GREAT AGAIN,” Trump wrote on his social media website Truth Social. “I have decided to immediately terminate multiple individuals from the Board of Trustees, including the Chairman, who do not share our Vision for a Golden Age in Arts and Culture.”

The current chairman is David M. Rubenstein, the Baltimore Orioles owner, who was originally appointed to the board by President George W. Bush in 2010. He was subsequently reappointed by President Barack Obama and President Joe Biden.

Rubenstein had announced plans to retire in January 2025, but he pushed that date back until September 2026 after Trump’s election victory.

The rest of the board is a mixture of Trump, Biden and Obama allies.

It includes Biden’s White House press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, former Obama adviser Stephanie Cutter, as well as Trump’s new attorney general Pam Bondi, and Lee Greenwood, whose song “God Bless the USA,” was repeatedly featured during his rallies. The board treasurer is television producer Shonda Rhimes.

Trump, who has not identified who on the board he is firing aside from Rubenstein, claims he is terminating them because they don’t share his vision for a “Golden Age” of the arts.

Trump terminates the chairman of the Kennedy Center in D.C., appoints himself as the new chairman then immediately bans drag shows targeting youth.

One of the greatest trolls of all time.

“At my direction, we are going to make the Kennedy Center in Washington D.C., GREAT AGAIN. I have decided to immediately terminate multiple individuals from the Board of Trustees, including the Chairman, who do not share our Vision for a Golden Age in Arts and Culture,” Trump said on Truth.

“We will soon announce a new Board, with an amazing Chairman, DONALD J. TRUMP! Just last year, the Kennedy Center featured Drag Shows specifically targeting our youth – THIS WILL STOP.”

“The Kennedy Center is an American Jewel and must reflect the brightest STARS on its stage from all across our Nation. For the Kennedy Center, THE BEST IS YET TO COME!”
