Judge tells Trump: Hands off the Kennedy Center

Original version ·

Apparently, you can't just bulldoze a national monument on a whim.

A federal judge just hit the brakes on Trump's apparent home renovation plans for the Kennedy Center. The ruling is simple: if the former president wants to turn the iconic landmark into rubble, he needs to give at least a 30-day heads-up. Because, you know, bureaucracy is the only thing standing between a historic cultural hub and a sudden demolition crew.

Meanwhile, the legal system is also busy trying to keep armed federal officers away from voting lines. The basic idea that polling stations shouldn't look like an active war zone is currently being litigated in court.

It is truly a sign of the times when the government needs a court order to stop itself from bulldozing the arts and intimidating its own voters.

    Can we just talk about how absurd it is that we even have to litigate NOT having armed guards at the polls? This country is losing its mind.
