The memo to staff Thursday said staff "must immediately change email signatures, letterhead, and other documents to reflect the name as 'The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts,' or 'Kennedy Center.'"

WSJ reports from inside the senators meeting with Platner. Some interesting details where his biggest backers pressed him if any additional allegations were coming.
Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders asked Platner if any additional allegations would emerge against the embattled Democratic candidate, according to people familiar with the discussion. Platner said there weren’t any.
Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, who also attended the meeting, followed up and said there is a big difference between marital issues and allegations of sexual assault, the people said. Platner agreed and denied any credible allegations of assault were forthcoming.

Some career news! Today is my first day @WSJ, working on political and government investigations and enterprise. I am beyond thrilled to take on new challenges with some old friends, and to make some new ones in an incredibly talented newsroom that is firing on all cylinders.

Trump "does not understand functionally that you cannot get things done unless you have some sense of unity with the people who you must work with,” said Sen. Bill Cassidy (R., La.).
Cassidy is part of what some call the "wounded bear caucus."

@jpodhoretz I was there in 1977, in fact I went to the theater 36 times. The ESB is like my favorite movie. I praised Rogue One and SOLO. I can’t say why, I haven’t given it much thought but I had ZERO interest in seeing this Mandalorian film.
