Federal Judge Christopher Cooper ruled on May 29 — what would have been President John F. Kennedy’s 109th birthday — that Trump’s name must be removed from the Kennedy Center within 14 days, finding that Trump and the board acted unlawfully and that only Congress has the authority to change the center’s name.

Maria Shriver — JFK’s niece — posted immediately calling it an appropriate birthday present on her uncle’s birthday today and said she knows they will probably appeal but for today let’s celebrate a great birthday gift. Kerry Kennedy added her own response saying perhaps she would not need that pickaxe after all — and what a great way to celebrate you on your birthday Uncle Jack. The name went up in December. It comes down in 14 days. And on the day it was ordered removed the Kennedy family made sure the whole world knew exactly how they felt about it.
