Donald Trump said that the slate of honorees for this year’s Kennedy Center Honors will be announced on Wednesday.

This will be the first awardees announced since Trump ousted board members and ensured that he would become chairman of the Kennedy Center. That gives him and his allies to pick the recipients.

Trump wrote on Truth Social, “GREAT Nominees for the TRUMP/KENNEDY CENTER, whoops, I mean, KENNEDY CENTER, AWARDS. They will be announced Wednesday. Tremendous work is being done, and money being spent, on bringing it back to the absolute TOP LEVEL of luxury, glamour, and entertainment. It had fallen on hard times, physically, BUT WILL SOON BE MAKING A MAJOR COMEBACK!!! President DJT”

CBS will broadcast the ceremony in December, but its deal for rights expires after the next event
