Take that, Donald Trump. The View host Whoopi Goldberg revealed Thursday she has “no plans” to return to the Kennedy Center until it returns to “what it was supposed to be” in the time before the president took over. Whoopi’s announcement came during Wednesday’s episode of the talk show, as she and her co-hosts discussed the Hamilton producers canceling the Tony Award-winning musical’s spring 2026 run at the Kennedy Center in D.C., the Wrap reports. In canceling, the producers explicitly cited Trump’s takeover as the reason, as Breitbart News reported. “I understand why they did it, and I have no plans to go back to the Kennedy Center, until

Obviously we need a National Day of Prayer to get us through this crisis. Can America survive? Film at 11, join us on 60 Minutes, msnbc, and all the other nut job networks to help us deal with this calamity. Maybe if we build a grotto and place a statue of Whoopie in it. A quiet place where we can pay homage to her and light candles. I mean she does know best, she is the elite, our moral leader, the light to follow. s/o Idiot no one gets a crap what you do.

"canceling the Tony Award-winning musical’s spring 2026" Thereby putting the actors, stage crew etc. out of a decent payday. And what does Whoopie do in her show? Comedy? Just curious. Not that I would go, but I was wondering what it was.

Karen -- for that and not Whoopi is indeed her name -- lives in Manhattan and probably gets to DC only rarely. Even before Trump, I doubt anyone at the Kennedy Center worried about her patronage. So this is just more virtue signaling of consequences that will never take place because the predicate conditions never existed.

I read, "The Kennedy Center's original purpose, envisioned by President Dwight Eisenhower, was to establish a national cultural center, a performing arts venue, to put Washington on par with other world capitals and showcase American arts to the world." I don't see how drag shows fit that purpose.

Tarik Johnson resigned from the US Capitol Police after more than 23 years of service after the events at our Capitol on January 6th. He previously appeared on Tucker Carlson Tonight on FOX News to tell portions of his story. Federal intel and law enforcement agencies knew about the warnings of a massive disturbance at the Capitol on Jan. 6, days before the event. But Speaker Pelosi refused to call in the National Guard days before the protests as President Trump requested. It was Pelosi who left the US Capitol vulnerable and put tens of thousands of Trump supporters in danger by her actions. Frontline officers on duty that day

Ex-Georgia House Rep. Stacey Abrams said this week that she received $2 billion from Former President Joe Biden’s Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to greenwash home appliances in what some have likened to an alleged Democratic “vote buying” scheme. EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin recently revealed that the Biden-era EPA passed through $20 billion in “gold bars,” or grants, to leftist groups. The Abrams-linked Power Forward Communities received $2 billion as part of these grants, a sum amounting to “20 million times the organization’s reported revenue,” according to the EPA.

As Townhall has been covering for months, Democrats have been relentlessly attacking Trump, DOGE, and Elon Musk.

Their sick antics understandably terrified her. “Today while walking my 3-year-old daughter a group of ‘Slava Ukraini’ protesters followed us around and shouted as my daughter grew increasingly anxious and scared,” Vance wrote.

Newsom then suggested that there needs to be a way to balance fairness with the mental health of these young men, otherwise they might “commit suicide.” “There’s also a humility and a grace.

The Environmental Protection Agency has no ability to track or conduct oversight of more than $650 million in taxpayer funds that a Biden-backed green group wired to dozens of credit union accounts last month, the agency told the Washington Free Beacon. In mid-February, the New York-based eco group Inclusiv—which received $1.9 billion last year as part of the EPA's $27 billion Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund program—transferred $651 million to 108 credit unions across 27 states and Puerto Rico. The group said the credit unions would use the funding to offer financing for green energy projects such as solar installations and electric vehicle chargers within their jurisdictions.
