BREAKING: Donald Trump is facing a lawsuit after attaching his name to the John F. Kennedy Center — a national memorial established by Congress. Rep. Joyce Beatty is challenging the move, arguing it was done without legal authority and in direct defiance of federal law, which reserves all changes to congressionally designated memorials for Congress alone. The lawsuit seeks to erase Trump’s name entirely, calling the act an unprecedented abuse of power. And now the question shaking Washington: if a president can rewrite history with a signature, what stops the next one from erasing it altogether?

President Donald Trump is facing a new legal challenge after a lawsuit was filed accusing him of unlawfully adding his name to the John F. Kennedy Center, a national memorial created and protected by an act of Congress. Rep. Joyce Beatty, who brought the suit, argues that the move violated federal law, which grants only Congress the authority to rename or alter congressionally designated memorials.

According to the filing, the name change is described as an abuse of power and a direct breach of constitutional limits, with Beatty asserting that no president has the unilateral right to modify a national memorial honoring a former president.

The lawsuit seeks a court order voiding the change and requiring Trump’s name to be removed from the institution.

The case is already drawing intense attention on Capitol Hill, where lawmakers warn it could set a far-reaching precedent.

At stake is more than a name — it’s the question of whether any president can rewrite national history without Congress, and where that power would end.
