Summary
The White House asserted executive privilege to withhold certain records of President Trump's communications in a lawsuit by Rep. Joyce Beatty (D-Ohio), an ex officio Kennedy Center board member challenging plans to close the performing arts center for two years and add Trump's name to it. A White House lawyer said information about Trump's management of the center, including efforts to rename it, and his conversations with outside advisers should be off-limits.
