Talk about entitlement! It’s not their family’s gravesite. It belongs to all the men and women who served our country.

The cemetery is on 639 acres with over 9800 trees but the TDS crowd is worried about a shadow.

Now why should they be entitled to sue to stop a national monument? Kennedy is remembered because he was assassinated and now he's being remembered for all the personal peccadilloes the press refused to report on in those days. Kennedy, his brother, and others in that Massachusetts mafia were not nice people we would want our youngsters to emulate. Trump isn't building a monument to himself but to the exceptionalism that for 250 years has been the United States of America. This is just more politics trying to dig up sympathy for a long gone politician. Imagine the chagrin of a fourteen year old worshiper of a young vibrant president to discover he had not written "Profiles in Courage" and then a slightly disillusioned twenty-five year old when he discovers Kennedy lied about his mistresses and more importantly about his health and that when he ran for President he had not one but two disabling illnesses.

Really going after the gritty news stories huh? How about an investigation into why there are more than 100% of voters showing up in every state?

Amyone with any common sense stands opposed to his arrogance and his grandiose "triumphal" arch in Arlington. His entire act is a disgrace to the Office of the President and an insult to the American people. I will be glad when he's out.

Vietnam war vets are suing too: “building a 250-foot tourist attraction—complete with a café, gift shop, and observation deck—just outside the main gates of Arlington National Cemetery disrupts the solemnity owed to the more than 400,000 service members buried there”.

Good to know you can do that. A major road is scheduled to be built near the cemetery my late husband is buried in. If the Kennedys win, I'm going to sue to stop the road because of the noise.

Meanwhile, the Kennedy Center continues to fall into disrepair and nary a peep. Sad corrupt family

Maybe we should dig JFK up and give him BACK to the family then? The same people who say "No Kings" certainly feckin ACT like we have Kings when it comes to the Kennedys...

Mary Jo Kopechne could not be reached for comment. The Kennedy family is filled with philanderers, murderers, bootleggers, and rapists. They’ve earned some “shade”, I’d say.

Not their cemetary. A diminished family of unscrupulous operators.

Still pissed about the Kennedy Center, I see. Why haven’t they picked up the bill for that, by the way? Why don’t they put the arch up too? It’s obvious they don’t give a shit about anything other than a name, a name associated w bootlegging and the cold blooded murder of a woman

⚖️ Nine Kennedy Family Members Sue Trump to Block 250 Foot Arch Near Arlington National Cemetery 🏛️ Kennedy Family Takes Legal Action: Nine members of the Kennedy family filed a federal court motion seeking to stop President Donald Trump from constructing a massive 250 foot triumphal arch near Arlington National Cemetery, arguing that the monument would permanently damage the historic setting of their relatives’ gravesites. 🕯️ JFK’s Gravesite at Risk: The family argues that the proposed structure would cast shadows over the graves of President John F. Kennedy, Robert F. Kennedy, Edward Kennedy and other family members. They also warn that the arch would obstruct historic views of JFK’s Eternal Flame and disrupt the cemetery’s solemn atmosphere. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Prominent Kennedy Relatives Join Lawsuit: The nine plaintiffs include Kerry Kennedy, Rory Kennedy, Maxwell Kennedy, Kathleen Kennedy Townsend, Joseph P. Kennedy II and Joseph P. Kennedy III. Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who serves in Trump's administration, did not join the legal challenge. ⚖️ Family Challenges Trump's Authority: The lawsuit argues that the Trump administration lacks congressional authorization to construct the monument. The family maintains that federal laws protecting historic landmarks and national memorials prohibit the administration from proceeding without proper approval. 🚨 Federal Judge Already Blocked Construction: U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan issued a temporary order preventing construction for 14 days while legal challenges proceed. The ruling followed objections from veterans, preservationists and local governments. 🇺🇸 Trump's Monument Faces Growing Opposition: The proposed arch, intended to commemorate America's 250th anniversary, would stand between the Lincoln Memorial and Arlington National Cemetery. The Kennedy family's intervention adds another major legal obstacle to one of Trump's most ambitious Washington monument projects.

Family gravesites deserve respect because even billion dollar monuments cannot purchase historical sensitivity

A memorial site carries meaning beyond its physical boundaries.
