Over 50, and we have 50-year-old air conditioning more than that, actually and it's in bad shape. Everything's in bad shape. It's gotta be redone.

"Federal law enforcement are working 24/7 to keep our country safe and protect all Americans," she wrote. "It's shameful and reckless that Democrats have chosen to shut down their Department." Democrats are negotiating with the White House on a deal to reopen the Department of Homeland Security, which oversees the Secret Service, and has been without funding for more than a week, in exchange for changes to immigration enforcement operations.

The president announced on Truth Social that the recently renamed center will close on July 4 for two full years of renovations. No better way to celebrate 250 years as a nation than by shutting down our center for the performing arts!

President Trump said the Kennedy Center makeover that he announced Sunday will cost $200 million and use the highest-grade marbles, the highest-grade everything.
