VICTORY: Kennedy Center naming is restored.
This case isn’t about Trump. It’s about preserving JFK’s memorial and upholding the rule of law.
We are proud to fight with @RepBeatty and WLG from day one. The Kennedy Center belongs to the American people.

"This is more than a spectacle in poor taste. It represents a further erosion of democratic norms."

At the 11th hr before a court deadline to remove Trump's name from the Kennedy Center, board appointees reversed course and voted to appeal anyway.
We just filed our response, w/ WLG, on behalf of @RepBeatty. Only Congress can rename the Kennedy Center. democracydefendersaction.org…

Trump on the campaign trail, 2024: “Starting on day one, we will end inflation and make America affordable again, to bring down the prices of all goods.”
Trump today: “I love inflation.”
Reporter: Are you concerned, Mr. President, about the latest inflation number which came out this morning?
Trump: No, I love it. I love the inflation.

Fla. Gov. DeSantis took a $67M prime piece of waterfront real estate from Miami-Dade College and gave it to Trump, supposedly for his presidential library.
Now, Trump intends to profit big, stating it will "most likely be a hotel."

The Senate has a responsibility here.
Confirming Todd Blanche means signing off on a DOJ that answers to one man. That is not what the office is for.
From burying Epstein files to attacking Trump's political enemies to a $1.8B slush fund, Todd Blanche has spent his time at DOJ demonstrating his loyalty to Trump, not the American people.
We should all be alarmed.

Trump tried to seize JFK’s memorial. Our client @RepBeatty fought back and won.
Every reference to Trump on the Kennedy Center must go by Friday, June 12. Last week it was email signatures, today it’s the website, next is the sign on the building.

From the Justice Department to the Supreme Court, Trump’s corruption runs on stacking agencies with loyalists who will serve his agenda.
Here's what we’re watching this week. 🧵

Bill Pulte has shown his loyalty to Trump, targeting adversaries with baseless allegations—& now Trump wants to reward him w/ the top spot in national intelligence.
Pulte is an unqualified & dangerous pick. Both Dems & Repubs are fighting to block him.

Trump continues his attempts to pack government offices with loyalists who seem more concerned with wielding political power for themselves instead of serving the people.
The pushback to hold Trump and his cronies accountable is real—and increasingly bipartisan.

Blanche claims to have “killed” the $1.8B slush fund. Trump called it “a beautiful thing” & said he’d “have to ask the lawyers.”
The payout to insurrectionists isn't yet dead. Neither is Blanche's forgiveness of the Trump family's potential $100M bill for tax avoidance.

AG Blanche asked survivors to come forward with leads. They did and now he won’t meet with them.
Over 3 million pages remain withheld from the public.
We stand with survivors in demanding that the DOJ do its job: review the evidence, pursue credible leads & provide answers.

NEW : Epstein survivors blast Todd Blanche following hearing in front of the House.
“Acting AG Todd Blanche and the DOJ cannot continue to claim it is protecting victims while refusing to meet with survivors, failing to explain what it has done with their evidence, and dismissing legitimate outrage as hysteria.”

Bill Pulte has no intel experience, a record of weaponization and is under investigation.
The Senate can fight back: block Section 702 reauthorization until this appointment is reversed.
DDA's Riley Pynnonen and @NormEisen make the case👇
