Trump scraps arts and humanities body

Trump scraps arts and humanities body

The President’s Committee on the Arts and the Humanities has been scrapped in an executive order, it was discovered overnight.

Past members of the largely symbolic committee include Frank Sinatra and Yo Yo Ma.

Present co-chairs are Lady Gaga (pic) and a Biden donor, Bruce Cohen.

The committee dispenses a piffling $335,000. Barely worth its weight in tarriffs.
