On Saturday morning,<\/span> Kennedy Center officials confirmed that they had removed all signs with President Trump\u2019s name from the building after a federal judge declared the previous day that the signs were unlawful. The officials also stated that they updated their website \u201cto remove all reference to the institution as the \u2018Trump Kennedy Center.\u2019\u201d<\/p>

To justify his takeover of the Kennedy Center, Trump has repeatedly stated that the cultural center was no longer \u201cgoing to be woke.\u201d<\/p>\n

On Friday, another federal judge ordered that the Trump administration must restore exhibits and placards on subjects like climate change, slavery, and civil rights that it had taken down following a March 2025 executive order that deemed them \u201cideological indoctrination or divisive narratives that distort our shared history.\u201d<\/p>\n

In a , US District Judge Angel Kelley ruled in favor of scientists, historians, and park conservationists and rangers, stating that the removal established a \u201cdangerous precedent of censorship and sanitization.\u201d Kelley gave the Trump administration a reinstallation deadline of 21 days, by the 250th anniversary of the US.<\/p>

The US Department of the Interior said in a statement that \u201cthe ruling is from a liberal activist judge\u201d and would evaluate options to appeal the decision while they \u201ccelebrate UFC Freedom 250.\u201d<\/p>\n

Both orders act as a massive blow to President Trump\u2019s censorship campaign to take control over federal historical sites and cultural institutions. As my colleague Dan Friedman reported in February, the Trump administration\u2019s efforts were shrouded in secrecy\u2014the Interior Department has so far refused to disclose the number of signs and exhibits they are targeting as \u201cnon-conformant\u201d with the president and signs were taken down without notice.<\/p>\n

And as my colleague Jeffrey Kelly also wrote in February, local residents and government officials of targeted areas have beenfighting back against this censorship through protests and even makeshift signs to replace the ones that\u2019d been removed, because despite the administration\u2019s best efforts, \u201cnothing can change what happened at these places, and who it happened to.\u201d<\/p>
