> a measure from House Republicans that would rename the Kennedy Center’s famed Opera House in honor of Melania Trump <

If that’s really true, it’s a dumb move. Nothing government-related should be named after a living person. That’s the stuff of monarchies.

“ A Republican-backed amendment to a spending bill for the U.S. Department of the Interior proposes renaming the Kennedy Center Opera House after First Lady Melania Trump to the “First Lady Melania Trump Opera House”. The House Appropriations Committee passed this amendment in a 33-25 vote on July 22, 2025, but it still requires approval from the full House and Senate to become law”

It is a ridiculous idea. Of course people think it’s trumps idea. If it was and it wasn’t but if it was trumps idea it would have been to bring attention to renaming everything

And this Kennedy guy. Schlossberg who can’t string a sentence together to format an headline needs to start with the Triboro Bridge

It’s the Triboro

Everyone needs to stop re naming everything.

“Nothing government-related should be named after a living person.”

That makes sense.

Except for Navy ships and military bases.
