Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) puzzled President Trump’s intentions after effectively being elected chair of the John F. Kennedy Heart for the Appearing Arts.
“I am concerned that there is a real, it is a little bit weird, just a little bit weird that the President of the United States is now head of the Kennedy Center,” Sanders instructed NewsNation in a Thursday interview.
The Vermont senator urged the transfer used to be a consolidation of energy with out worry for tradition.
Trump’s choice to take away 18 Biden appointees from the middle’s board together with former Chair David Rubenstein sparked a crippling reaction, inflicting some celebrities to escape their submit after the transfer.
“You know, we got other people who know a little bit about culture, maybe even more than the president,” Sanders mentioned.
“But what is clearly happening in this country right now, every single day, with [Elon] Musk, with President Trump, is more and more power going to fewer and fewer people, and often people who have huge amounts of money,” he added.
The president mentioned he would use his chairmanship to change on degree performances with no need ever attended one on the middle.
“Simply closing 12 months, the Kennedy Heart featured Drag Displays in particular concentrated on our early life — THIS WILL STOP. The Kennedy Heart is an American Jewel, and will have to mirror the brightest STARS on its degree from all throughout our Country. For the Kennedy Heart, THE BEST IS YET TO COME,” Trump wrote in a Reality Social submit.
After the announcement, the middle’s president Deborah F. Rutter introduced her departure.
“Just like our democracy itself, creative expression will have to be nurtured, fostered, prioritized, and secure,” Rutter mentioned in a commentary.
“It is not a passive endeavor; indeed, there is no clearer sign of American democracy at work than our artists, the work they produce, and audiences’ unalienable right to actively participate.”
