There are so many tragedies these days and this is among them. I saw many wonderful shows at the KC when I was a kid. It never ceases to horrify me that no one (in power) is stopping this president from ravaging the country. They could learn from the folks in ICE occupied cities.

Unreal. He’s shutting down the Kennedy Center, after his flunkies caused mass defections of artists?
Everything the man touches turns to ash. Our cultural heritage; destroyed. Our national treasures; plundered.

Trump: "I have determined that the fastest way to bring The Trump Kennedy Center to the highest level of Success, Beauty, and Grandeur, is to cease Entertainment Operations for an approximately two year period of time, with a scheduled Grand Reopening that will rival and surpass anything."

So we know there are images of death, physical abuse, and injury in the #EpsteinFiles. Got it.
Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche admits that the DOJ excluded all images showing “death, physical abuse, or injury” from yesterday’s Epstein files release.

![Ultimately, Petitioners may, because of the arcane United States immigration system, return to
their home country, involuntarily or by self-deportation. But that result should occur through a more
orderly and humane policy than currently in place.

My hot take about the “students cannot read whole novels / watch whole films / etc.” is that they can learn to do it. None of us are born with attention spans suited for long media. It is a learned skill and can be developed with practice.

👀 Every Senate Democrat + Collins and Murkowski just voted for the Bernie Sanders amendment to repeal the $75 billion in additional ICE funding under Trump’s “big beautiful bill.” The measure failed 49-51.

Despite a reticence to make this the Democrats' ask, we will now get every Senator on the record: should ICE have the budget they managed with in 2024/early 2025, or a supersized budget equivalent to an extra 7.5 years of funding, even if they are (allegedly) doing lower-cost targeted operations?
