GOOD. MORE PLEASE.
Username checks out.
I thought it was funny
Wants more people to cancel their shows at the Kennedy Center.
Wants to be fucked in the ass.
You: they’re the same picture.
Person makes a joke about the comment and the commenter’s username.
You: let me get my dopamine by being critical and an absolute cunt.
The Cookers did not give a reason for the decision in a statement on Monday that said, “Jazz was born from struggle and from a relentless insistence on freedom: freedom of thought, of expression, and of the full human voice.”
It sounds like they gave a reason to me.
I'd bet Kid Rock is available.
He could have Ted Nugent open for him.
This motherfucker is the Jordan of bankruptcies. I mean failing at a Casino was already Master-level, but this takes the pie.
lol.
Lmao, even.
People say the name was changed illegally. I’m out of the loop on this, why is it illegal for their name to be changed?
The Kennedy Center was created with that name by an act of Congress: https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/20/76i
Much like the Department of Defense, it must be renamed by Congress.
Thanks! I didn’t know this. Especially about the department of defense.
I have to say, even if they'd changed it legally, it would not diminish my disgust one bit. To name something so public, that you had no part in creating, after yourself is the ultimate ... tastelessness, fuck you to the plebs, loser move, etc.
The name is actually set in a law, hence this lawsuit: https://washingtonlitigationgroup.org/news/new-lawsuit-challenges-illegal-renaming-of-the-kennedy-center/
Among other reasons, board members who would've dissented were forcibly muted in the videoconference meeting during the "unanimous" vote.
Wait what? That is old Soviet Union crap. Can I get more details on this? Not in Congress I presume?
Sec. 2 Policy. (a) It is the policy of the United States to prosecute to the fullest extent permitted under Federal law, and as appropriate, any person or any entity that destroys, damages, vandalizes, or desecrates a monument, memorial, or statue within the United States or otherwise vandalizes government property. The desire of the Congress to protect Federal property is clearly reflected in section 1361 of title 18, United States Code, which authorizes a penalty of up to 10 years' imprisonment for the willful injury of Federal property. More recently, under the Veterans' Memorial Preservation and Recognition Act of 2003, section 1369 of title 18, United States Code, the Congress punished with the same penalties the destruction of Federal and in some cases State-maintained monuments that honor military veterans. Other criminal statutes, such as the Travel Act, section 1952 of title 18, United States Code, permit prosecutions of arson damaging monuments, memorials, and statues on State grounds in some cases. Civil statutes like the Public System Resource Protection Act, section 100722 of title 54, United States Code, also hold those who destroy certain Federal property accountable for their offenses. The Federal Government will not tolerate violations of these and other laws.
So much winning.
When they say "everything he touches turns to shit" they mean literally everything.
What in the ever loving FUCK is GOING ON THERE in the US. This is the kind of silly shit you expect from a third world dictatorship. He really just… renamed the fucking thing and put his own name first. That’s just utterly disrespectful, not to mention distasteful in general.
It used to be you had to at least die in order to get your name put on things….
Serves them right for putting that Nazi’s name on the building!
Serves them right for putting that Nazi’s name on the building!
It wasn't renamed. The office of president doesn't have the power.
Fuck all of this collaborationist media gaslighting horseshit.
Oh. Then why are they saying it was?
They didn’t change the name legally. They just changed the name on the building and what everyone in the executive branch and on the board calls it.
So, what's the distinction? They changed the name, but not through the formal process of signing documents?
I'm having trouble understanding what steps they need to take before I can rightfully be offended, and I don't know enough about how something like a building or institution is legally or illegally named.
I think that if there is a big sign on a building telling everyone what it's called, that is what people will call it. I also think it's safe to assume that not every single Tom, Dick, and Harry in America will have taken the time to be informed of the legal name of a building before using the name stapled to the God damn wall of said fucking building!
If only someone had the balls to write a strongly worded letter to those people and finally put an end to all of these illegal activities.
