Trump’s name added to Institute of Peace building
President Donald Trump’s name was added to the United States Institute of Peace building in D.C. Wednesday.
The change comes amid an ongoing legal battle over whether the Trump administration can dismantle the institute.
A lawyer for former USIP leadership and staff condemned the addition, saying it “adds insult to injury.”
The administration released a statement, saying the institute blew millions per year “while delivering no peace.”
It went on to say the building is now “beautifully and aptly named after a President who ended 8 wars in less than a year.”
