Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse details Democrats’ Kennedy Center probe
Democratic Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (R.I.) said he believes the Trump administration is trying to “loot” the Kennedy Center.
In November, Whitehouse launched a probe into allegations of cronyism and corruption at the performing arts center under interim President Richard Grenell, who was appointed by President Trump in February.
The Rhode Island Democrat told The Guardian that when the administration took control of the center, its “first instinct was to loot it for their own benefit and hire their friends and put people up in fancy rooms at the Watergate and let favored organizations get free access and it was all part of a MAGA party atmosphere.”
