The Kennedy Center broke its all-time attendance record for a public event March 29, with over 11,000 attendees for the EARTH to SPACE: Arts Breaking the Sky fireworks show, the Daily Caller has exclusively learned.

The history-making moment was celebrated amid a flurry of criticism from liberals about President Donald Trump’s takeover of the entertainment facility. Critics voiced concerns about Trump’s understanding and appreciation for the arts when he took control of the Kennedy Center. However, attendance numbers have told a different story. With a focus on shifting away from politically-charged programming, the facility experienced tremendous success with a widely-attended fireworks show.

Oh, a fireworks show. I’m glad it was well attended and apparently, there was no ‘trouble with Libs’ going on.

Unfortunately, that will be hard to do since DC is 95% Democrats. Most of the people at this event were Chinese as the artist who did the AI and fireworks is a big artist in China.

If Trump succeeds on this tariff deal, especially with China, and everybody gets a nice tax rebate check from all the discovered fraud, then democrats are finished, toast.

Congress supposedly is responsible for oversight over a multitude of Agencies and institutions they created. For decades, Congress has allowed waste, fraud and abuse to exist. Blaming the democrats is a half-truth. Where were the republicans all these years? Where was the oversight? Where was the audit scrutiny? Where was the oversight?

It's pathetic that it took an Elon Musk to expose waste, fraud and abuse that has existed for decades when Congress (democrats & republicans) should have been doing so all along.

IMHO, there are so many representatives benefiting from waste, fraud and abuse that it will take a miracle to see it come to an end. We have become a people that think corruption is normal and to be tolerated.

I’d like to see something like that to take them down.

What is important? Saving our Nation.

I believe that Trump has even bolder aims now.

The promised oversight—"Yes, we're giving these agencies the ability to do our jobs through administrative rule making, but don't worry, we'll be holding them accountable through oversight..."—quickly devolved into preening for the TV cameras by publicly berating some hapless assistant to the 10th undersecretary of an agency for a few hours. Once the camera are off, oversight ends and business continues as usual.

We do not need a rebate check. How about the debt goes from 36 trillion to 34 trillion? Now that would make trump a historic president.
