White House: Trump Prepares Himself for Long and Tough Ballroom Process
US President Trump wants to build a ballroom at the White House for hundreds of millions of dollars. Opponents took the project to court - the proceedings are likely to take a long time.
US President Donald Trump is preparing for a "long, hard court battle" over his planned ballroom on the White House grounds. The Supreme Court has allowed the construction to proceed with a 5-4 majority, reversing a lower court's halt on the project. The court's decision does not rule on the project's legitimacy, but rather that preservationists may not have the right to challenge Trump's plans.
The ballroom project, which began in Autumn 2025, aims to create a larger space for state banquets and enhance security on the White House grounds.
