Kennedy Center warns of “fiscal collapse” — unless Trump’s name returns
Summary
President Trump dismissed AI safety concerns as a hoax, clashing with tech leaders and lawmakers urging regulation after a researcher’s resignation. The Kennedy Center faces potential closure as Trump-appointed leaders push to restore his name to the facade to secure funding. The EPA revoked greenhouse gas rules for power plants, while the Supreme Court blocked new mail-in ballot restrictions ahead of midterms. Additionally, Senator McConnell returned to the Senate floor, and Apple TV+ won the most Emmys of any network.
