Trump Faces New Kennedy Center Humiliation With $17M
Donald Trump's bruising battle over the Kennedy Center just got worse, with the institution being hit with a new multi-million-dollar lawsuit.
Days after a federal judge ordered Trump's name stripped from the nation's premier performing arts institution, the Washington National Opera is demanding more than $17 million that the organization says it is owed.
The lawsuit claims the Trump-controlled Kennedy Center failed to return the money to the organization after it split from the venue earlier this year amid discontent over the president's takeover.
"The funds held by the Kennedy Center represent years of gifts and contributions made by loyal WNO donors who specifically directed their support to benefit WNO and its mission," the opera said in the court filing.
