Workers completed the removal of President Trump's name from the exterior of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C., in the early morning hours of June 13, 2026, hours after a court-ordered deadline the previous evening. U.S. District Judge Christopher Cooper had ruled that the Kennedy Center's board of trustees acted unlawfully when it voted to add Trump's name to the building, which Congress designated in 1964 as a memorial to President John F. Kennedy. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit rejected a last-minute bid to block the removal order, though the three-judge panel left open the possibility the name could be restored if the Justice Department succeeded in its pending appeal.
Thunderstorms swept through the Washington area on the night of June 12, causing workers to miss the original deadline. The Kennedy Center sought a 12-hour extension; workers completed the removal before dawn on June 13.
