John F. Kennedy’s family marks the late president’s 109th birthday by reacting to a recent federal court ruling affecting the Kennedy Center’s naming. Multiple reports say a judge orders that Donald Trump’s name be removed from the Kennedy Center and also blocks a planned two-year renovation tied to the change. Kennedy’s niece, Maria Shriver, publicly comments on the decision, framing it as timely in light of JFK’s birthday. Shriver posts that it is a fitting “birthday” outcome for her uncle. The reporting also notes that the judge’s order comes from litigation over the Kennedy Center’s decision to attach Trump’s name to the performing arts building, which is intended as a memorial to President Kennedy. The court action prevents the renovation from moving forward while the naming dispute remains unresolved. Shriver’s remarks reflect the Kennedy family’s perspective on the ruling, while the decision itself centers on the federal judge’s instructions to remove Trump’s name and pause the renovation timeline.
