  • Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Corva Coleman.

  • The Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C. Has been closed, at least temporarily.

  • President Trump and his hand-picked board of directors have tried to keep his name on the building.

  • A judge ordered it removed.

  • Now there's a dispute over how much renovation the Kennedy Center needs.

  • The status of the center has been the subject of a blizzard of emergency filings in federal court.

  • Judge Christopher Cooper has now ruled the Trump administration

  • has to give 30 days notice before taking any physical action on the building.

  • And Pierre's Anastasia Tsiolkas has more.

  • Trump has been threatening to demolish it if his name is not on it.

  • And Wednesday night, a news photographer took a picture of Trump on Air Force One.

  • And in the photo, we see the president looking at a large placard that refers to the center being demolished.

  • Now, earlier that day, Trump commented about the Kennedy Center.

  • He said it has lost hundreds of millions of dollars, but has provided no evidence of that.

  • NPR's Anastasia Siokas reporting.

  • A coalition of civil rights groups and unions filed a federal lawsuit last night.

  • It aims to ensure federal law enforcement officers will not be at polling places.

  • NPR's Jude Jaffe Block reports it's the second such lawsuit this month.

  • For months, Trump administration officials have sent mixed signals about whether

  • there's a possibility federal law enforcement officers could be at polling sites.
