The Trump administration is taking over the Penn Station renaming process, with the Transportation Department revealing that a new name for New York City’s iconic transportation hub is a top priority. The New York Daily News reported Thursday that Transportation Secretary Sean McDuffy sent a letter to multiple Senate committees outlining his department’s decision to “direct Amtrak to rename New York Penn Station.” While the new name has not been confirmed, many people favor "Epstein-Trump Pedo Station" https://newrepublic.com/post/213470/trump-team-rename-new-york-penn-station
