Former U.S. President Donald Trump has appointed Fox News anchors Laura Ingraham and Maria Bartiromo, along with other conservative figures, to the board of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. This move, effective until September 2025, has stirred controversy due to the political affiliations of the appointees.
