Earlier this year, DOGE dismantled the U.S. Institute of Peace and let most of its staff go.

Now, the Institute has been renamed for Trump.

The vanity of this president is out of control.

He doesn't do things to help the American people - he does them to inflate his own ego.

Humility is dead (and so is irony). 

An institute that was doing great work is now a laughingstock.

You seriously can't make this stuff up. In case you've forgotten with all of his other bullshit going on. Not only did he and "LEON" Musk try to shut the Institute of Peace down. IT'S NOT PART OF THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT!! Now he wants his name on it.

The Peace Building in DC has been renamed the “Donald J. Trump Institute of Peace”

The institute created by Congress, signed into law by Reagan, and axed by Trump back in February.

He literally had the president of the USIP hauled out by police and has now deemed himself the emperor of peace.

"Donald J. Trump Institute of Peace"

"A federal judge ruled the government's armed takeover was illegal. The judgment is stayed while the gov't appeals, which is the only reason the gov't continues to control the building,"

Btw, it's not part of the Executive Branch.

Though funded by congress, the institute of peace is NOT a government agency. Shouldn’t they have a say as to signage? Can the federal government be charged, in this case, of vandalism? Like a street gang tagging a wall?

Trump wants to rename the Institute of Peace, the Kennedy Center, the airport and the football stadium after himself.
Why stop there? Why not rename the whole country? Something like TRUMPINANIA.

He dismissed USIP as a useless entity that was a bloated bureaucracy before fighting with its board and shutting it down, and now he wants his name on it.”
a lawyer for former USIP staff, said that changing the name of the building was “an insult” and illegal.

NEW— DC Metropolitan Police just shared a tiny bit more body cam footage from the March US Institute of Peace raid in response to my FOIA lawsuit w/ @rcfp.org

One clip shows USIP President George Moose being escorted out.

My lawyers at @rcfp.org still haven't received the DC police's brief in response to our request for summary judgment. It's due by EOD today. Regardless, we will push forward until ALL footage from the illegal raid on USIP is released.

USIP was in the news this week after Trump's name appeared on the front of the building ahead of an event happening there. This chain of events started with DOGE's illegal March takeover of the building—which is owned by the institute itself—with the help of DC MPD. We need all the facts.
SCOOP: Sources tell me Donald Trump's name was added to the exterior of the US Institute of Peace building ahead of Thursday's peace agreement signing between Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), which will be held inside the building. Confirming if it's been officially renamed.

"tRump's White House gutted the Institute of Peace, fired its staff and called it a 'bloated, useless entity.' Now Trump has renamed the institute he tried to destroy after himself." Judge has ruled that the government’s armed takeover was illegal. Judgment is stayed while the government appeals.

Just a reminder: the Institute of Peace is an independent agency created by an act of Congress in 1984 and funded solely by Congress. No individual in the maladministration can change its name, only Congress can. Any judicial ruling finding otherwise is flawed.
