WASHINGTON (AP) — A federal appeals court is allowing President Donald Trump to continue building a $400 million ballroom at the White House, ruling a day after a lower court judge continued to block above-ground construction on the site of the former East Wing.
A three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit late Friday put on temporary hold the order by U.S. District Judge Richard Leon halting part of the project. The panel scheduled a hearing for June 5 to review the case.
In his ruling Thursday, Leon continued to block above-ground construction of the 90,000-square-foot (8,400-square-meter) ballroom addition while allowing only below-ground work to continue on a bunker and other “national security facilities” at the site.


That’s okay, build it, and make it really expensive, because when we get through this, it’s going to be restored to its original design, and Trump is going to pay for every penny of the construction, destruction, and rebuild, out of his pocket. The money he collected in bribes to pay for it will also come out of his estate, and added to the budget that will fund healthcare, day care, free college, etc.
yeah first we claw back every ill gotten gain and then he pays for expenses from whatever was left/
And not just him, all of those billionaire cabinet secretaries, all those Sociopathic Oligarchs who have been looting America, especially Musk. He needs to have his entire fortune full confiscated, and his companies nationalized. We paid for it all, after all.
