Lawsuit filed to stop Trump carving his name into the Institute of Peace
Bolting letters to the facade wasn't permanent enough, so a contractor was lined up to physically chisel Donald Trump into stone.
Bolting giant letters to a building on Constitution Avenue apparently didn't feel permanent enough. A contractor had already been lined up to bring out the chisels and physically engrave Donald Trump into the facade of the U.S. Institute of Peace.
Ousted board members rushed to federal court for an emergency injunction, arguing that permanently carving a president's personal brand into an independent non-profit's building causes irreparable harm to its design and mission.
This is not even the only facade battle happening in D.C. this week. A federal judge had to tell the administration twice in the span of a few days that placing his name on the Kennedy Center is legally off the table.
There is a distinct kind of poetry in having to file federal restraining orders just to keep someone from literally carving their own name onto the headquarters of peace.
