The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts told members of the National Symphony Orchestra it would no longer be paying them hours after President Donald Trump signed a $25 million bailout for the center.

According to an email obtained by the Washington Free Beacon, the musicians will no longer receive paychecks after April 3.
“The Covid-19 Advisory Committee was broadsided today during our conversation with [Kennedy Center President] Deborah Rutter,” the email read. “Ms. Rutter abruptly informed us today that the last paycheck for all musicians and librarians will be April 3 and that we will not be paid again until the Center reopens.”

  1. It was always about paying off some rich democrat elitist. The folks that run the place should be shot.

  3. There is no definition of "fighting hard" that applies here. In 2.2 trillion dollars, no one is fighting anything.

    2. Like I said, it wasn't much of a fight. More like both sides in total cooperation. Fight implies opposition being present.
