America is celebrating its 250th year. And what better way to mark that anniversary than with a trip to Washington, D.C.? But visitors to the nation's capital will find that it is undergoing tremendous change, courtesy of President Donald Trump's takeover makeover. This was reported by Qazaqyia.kz citing Associated Press.

On May 27, 2026, members of the National Guard walked through the lobby of Union Station. On March 10, 2025, work began to remove signage and markings from the Black Lives Matter plaza on 16th Street near the White House, and on April 1, 2025, the work was completed. A photo combination shows the Robert F. Kennedy Department of Justice Building on June 9, 2023, and a banner featuring an image of President Donald Trump hanging on the building on May 27, 2026. On December 20, 2025, a day after a Trump-appointed board voted to add President Donald Trump's name to the Kennedy Center, demonstrators, including Nadine Siler of Waldorf, Md., dressed in a pink frog costume, held up signs at a designated protest point in front of the John F. Kennedy Memorial Center for the Performing Arts.
