Because if someone has been doing the job for 30 years, they are probably unqualified.

They fired the woman in charge of the free Millennium Stage too because anything free is socialism.

I've enjoyed many good jazz concerts at the Kennedy Center so am disappointed to see it gone. I went to one there recently and there was what looked like MAGA prom. It was an event for conservative Gen Z for Jesus put on by the Christian Broadcasting Network.
