Washington: US-Berufungsgericht stoppt 400-Millionen-Dollar-Ballsaal – Trump will vor Obersten Gerichtshof ziehen
Der US-Präsident findet seinen geplanten Ballsaal spitze. Doch ein Berufungsgericht sagt: „Jeder Präsident ist nur ein Mieter auf Zeit, nicht der Eigentümer des Weißen Hauses.“
A US Court of Appeals has barred President Donald Trump's administration from proceeding with the construction of a $400 million ballroom on the White House grounds. The federal court confirmed an preliminary injunction against the project, which is to be built where the demolished eastern wing once stood. The ruling reaffirmed the principle that "every President is only a temporary tenant, not the owner of the White House," and stated that Congress had not granted the administration unrestricted authority to remodel the White House according to a specific President's desires.
The court has granted a 14-day stay to allow the government to appeal to the Supreme Court. Trump announced on his platform Truth Social that he would take this step, describing the decision as "terrible" and politically motivated, and calling the project a "military center." He vowed that the decision will be overturned by the Supreme Court in its entirety.
The planned ballroom would include bunkers, medical facilities, and defenses against drones and rockets.
