The Supreme Court ruled this week that construction can move forward on President Trump’s $900 million White House ballroom. But across Washington, the president’s other pet construction projects aren’t going so well. The Kennedy Center is closed, and its facade is covered with a tarp. The Reflecting Pool is...

"Cluttered and shuttered" is how I think of the state of District during all Trump's violations and mutilations. The message is very clearly a toddler-like scream of "Mine!" It's also obvious that neither the locals nor visitors to the District are welcome. It's chilling to see.

A federal appeals court ruled that President Donald Trump can't continue building his $400 million White House ballroom without congressional approval. In a 2-1 ruling, the judges sided with preservationists in finding that the president does not have the authority to build the 90,000-square-foot structure on the site where the East Wing once stood. But construction may not stop right away. The judges gave the administration two weeks to appeal the ruling to the Supreme Court. President Trump called the decision "unjust" and said it should be overturned "in its entirety."

NEW: President Trump gives an update on the construction of the new ballroom: "This is going to be the finest ballroom ever built. No cost to the country. The money is being put in by me. In order to do it properly, we had to take down the existing structure. We don’t touch the White House.”

President Donald Trump's plan for a 250-foot triumphal arch in the Washington, D.C., area moved one step closer to reality Thursday. The U.S. Commission on Fine Arts, whose members were entirely appointed by Trump, approved the design for the arch set to be constructed on a traffic circle between the Lincoln Memorial and Arlington National Cemetery. After a reporter told Trump about the commission's vote, the president called the result "fantastic." The 250-foot arch project is one of several the president has pursued to leave his mark on the nation's capital. A group of Vietnam War veterans is seeking to block the arch's construction with a lawsuit. The veterans argue that according to the Commemorative Works Act of 1986, building the arch requires authorization from Congress. Trump, on the other hand, told reporters Thursday that the land is owned by the Interior Department. "We don't need anything from Congress," he said.

Reporter: “You had repeatedly said that taxpayers would not pay for the ballroom at the White House. Why should taxpayers now be on the hook for a billion dollars?” President Trump: “Well, they’re not. That’s for many other projects. That’s for projects having to do with safety and a certain section of the White House grounds. That’s not all for the ballroom. We’re putting up $400M to do the ballroom section of the ballroom.” “We are putting that up privately.” “They want to do certain things militarily with respect to the ballroom.”

THE WHITE HOUSE “BALLROOM” IS NOW BEING CALLED A MILITARY COMPLEX President Trump is building far more than a ballroom at the White House. What began as a project for hosting VIP guests is now being described by the administration and its lawyers as an integrated military complex beneath the former East Wing. Trump has even posted an AI-generated video of himself giving George Washington a tour of the new ballroom, while calling Americans who oppose the project “very disloyal” to the country. But the public is only now learning the project’s full scale and purpose through court filings. Reports show the White House awarded Clark Construction a no-bid contract worth up to $500 million, bypassing the competitive process designed to protect taxpayers. The estimated price has surged from roughly $200 million to nearly $600 million, with hundreds of millions in public funds reportedly on the line. No congressional authorization. A historic wing demolished. A ballooning price tag. And now an underground military facility tied to a project originally sold as a ballroom. Sam Husseini (Sam Husseini) joins me to break down what is actually being built beneath the White House, and why the public was kept in the dark.

BREAKING: President Trump repeatedly promised the White House ballroom would be paid for with private donations and wouldn't cost taxpayers a dime. Now critics point to reports that $352 million in federal funds originally designated for Secret Service projects was redirected to help finance construction. The issue is who ended up paying for it.

🚨 JUST IN: The Trump DOJ just wrote a SCATHING demand to the activist attorneys suing to stop Trump’s ballroom after last night’s shooting “Put simply, your lawsuit puts the lives of the President, his family, and his staff at GRAVE risk. I hope yesterday's narrow miss will help you finally realize the folly of a lawsuit that literally serves no purpose except to stop President Trump no matter the cost. Enough is enough. Your client should voluntarily dismiss this frivolous lawsuit today in light of last night's assassination attempt on President Trump. If your client does not dismiss the lawsuit by 9:00 AM on Monday, the government will move to dissolve the injunction and dismiss the case in light of last night's extraordinary events. We will state your position as opposed if we do not hear back from you by 9:00 AM on Monday.” “Yesterday's assassination attempt on President Trump proves, yet again, that the White House ballroom is essential for the safety and security of the President, his family, his cabinet, and his staff. When the White House ballroom is complete, President Trump and his successors will no longer need to venture beyond the safety of the White House perimeter to attend large gatherings at the Washington Hilton ballroom.”
