The Kennedy Center was named for JFK to honor his vigorous defense of the arts. Since the current admin claims to value historical truth and fact, while ignoring it routinely, and seeks control over this space, they might wish to consider what JFK had to say: www.jfklibrary.org/learn/about-...

Tonight I had the extraordinary privilege of speaking at the anniversary of the lighting of the lanterns in Boston’s Old North Church, which happened 250 years ago tonight.

There is a PR narrative quickly emerging about “entitlement” of elite universities, as if this $ is some sort of subsidy
Harvard & others must counter this quickly
The $ doesn’t flow into Harvard’s coffers - this is grant money, most of which goes to research the govt has agreed has social value

Harvard Will Not Comply With a List of Trump Administration Demands
Federal officials said Harvard must enact “merit-based reform” in hiring and admissions, among other things. Harvard called the demands unlawful.

Time to flip the Trump message - “they are ripping us off” - and send it right back. “They are ripping YOU off” captures likely outcomes for millions of American citizens as the administrative state is gutted and bedrock security programs dating to the New Deal are being dismantled

4/ Rejecting any further discussion of the history, Vance said his concern was with diplomacy now and proceeded to excoriate Zelensky for “disrespecting” Trump and the U.S.
Responding to a perceived slight to Trump over the date, Vance escalated this and helped unleash the rest.

2/ Trump tried to correct Zelensky on the date - 2015 said Trump. “I wasn’t here” Zelensky : reiterated 2014 - as he continued the historical narrative - stressing Putin did not fulfill diplomatic agreements made thereafter and that no American president responded.

1/ Watching the Zelensky/ Trump / Vance meeting, fascinating to see the sharp escalation in tone followed Zelensky’s effort to describe the chronology of the war - emphasizing the 2014 incursion into Crimea as the start date of Russian aggression.
