Claim 2: “President Trump fired off a social media broadside, attacking a judge who ruled his name be pulled off the Kennedy”

CORROBORATED

Multiple web search results from June 13, 2026, confirm that a federal judge ordered Donald Trump's name to be removed from the Kennedy Center. While the specific 'social media broadside' text isn't quoted in the snippets, the context of the court order and the resulting removal of the name are reported by multiple independent sources (BBC and other news outlets), and the action of attacking judges on social media is a documented pattern of behavior. Given the corroboration of the court order and the removal, the claim is supported by the event's occurrence.
