Vigil celebrates judicial order requiring Trump to remove name from Kennedy Center

WASHINGTON, D.C., U.S. - MAY 29: A contingent of supporters of the John F. Kennedy Memorial Center for the Performing Arts wearing inflatable frog costumes, a symbol of resistance against the administration of U.S. President Donld Trump, participate in a vigil hours after a federal judge ordered Trump to remove all references to his name in the institution’s title within two weeks, in Washington, D.C., U.S., on May 29, 2026. The judge issued the order on the 109th anniversary of President Kennedy’s birth, noting that, under federal law, only Congress can alter the institution’s name. (Photo by Allison Bailey/NurPhoto)
