Democrats troll Trump with Satisfaction live performance at Kennedy Middle

In an act of protest, 5 Senate Democrats are staging a Satisfaction live performance on the Kennedy Middle on Monday evening, turning the Trump-controlled venue right into a platform for queer celebration and political defiance.

Dubbed “Love Is Love,” the live performance will characteristic Broadway performers delivering songs, readings, and tributes to LGBTQ+ tradition in entrance of an invited viewers. It’s being organized by Democratic Sen. John Hickenlooper of Colorado, with assist from Sens. Tammy Baldwin of Wisconsin, Jacky Rosen of Nevada, Brian Schatz of Hawaii, and Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts.

“What’s happening in the world is deeply concerning, but even in our darkest hours, we must continue to seek out the light,” Hickenlooper advised The New York Occasions. “The LGBTQ community has long embodied this resilience, maintaining joy and creativity in the face of adversity.”

To stage the occasion, the senators used a little-known congressional privilege that enables them to lease house on the Kennedy Middle. However they didn’t choose the date accidentally. June is Satisfaction Month—one thing President Donald Trump has gone out of his strategy to ignore.

Trump has damaged with latest presidential custom by refusing to formally acknowledge Satisfaction Month. Since his hijacking of the Kennedy Middle, a number of LGBTQ+ organizations canceled appearances, saying the house not feels inclusive. 

It’s not exhausting to see why: Trump has launched an unprecedented assault on the LGBTQ+ group, making anti-transgender assaults central to his presidency and teaming up with Protection Secretary Pete Hegseth to rename the USNS Harvey Milk, a ship honoring the homosexual rights icon and Navy veteran. 


The Kennedy Middle, proven in August 2019.

Again in February, Trump purged the Kennedy Middle’s bipartisan board, put in himself as chair, and appointed shut ally Richard Grenell as its president. He declared the venue too “woke” and promised to usher in a “Golden Age in Arts and Culture.”

Earlier in June, Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and their wives attended a efficiency of the musical “Les Misérables”—a wildly tone-deaf transfer, contemplating the present’s revolutionary themes. 

“We’re going to save the Kennedy Center. We’re going to make it incredible,” Trump mentioned that evening. “It’s got great sound. The bones are very good.”

Although Grenell insists the venue remains to be inclusive, it’s a tough declare to defend. In March, “Hamilton” lead producer Jeffrey Vendor canceled an upcoming run of the musical on the middle, saying he didn’t need the present’s earnings funding Trump’s imaginative and prescient. Actor Issa Rae additionally pulled an occasion in protest.

Even the Nationwide Symphony Orchestra dropped a deliberate Could efficiency that includes the Homosexual Males’s Refrain of Washington, though the Kennedy Middle claimed it was for monetary or scheduling causes. That refrain is now slated to carry out in Monday’s live performance as an alternative.

Hickenlooper reportedly reached out to Vendor to assist produce the occasion, asking if he was up for a little bit “guerrilla theatre.” And it looks as if he’s gearing as much as do exactly that. The Occasions studies that Vendor is planning a 90-minute live performance celebrating “gay characters, gay culture, gay music, and gay pride.”

“This is our way of reoccupying the Kennedy Center,” Vendor advised the Occasions. “This is a form of saying, ‘We are here, we exist, and you can’t ignore us.’ This is a protest, and a political act.”

The occasion is being directed by Seth Rudetsky and his husband, James Wesley Jackson, identified for staging concert events tied to political causes. And whereas it might not single-handedly undo Trump’s grip on the humanities, it sends a message: Democrats aren’t backing down—they usually’re studying the best way to combat again with aptitude.

It’s about time. And they need to maintain going.
