"The President of the United States is the steward of the White House for future generations of First Families. He is not, however, the owner! Where does this leave us? Unfortunately for Defendants, unless and until Congress blesses this project through statutory authorization, construction has to stop!"

"Trump has hit back at the National Trust for its legal challenge against his ballroom. In a post on his social media site Truth Social, he referred to the National Trust as a group of left-wing 'lunatics' and defended his ballroom."
A US judge ruled that President Trump cannot proceed with plans for a $400 million ballroom on White House grounds without congressional approval.

Trump criticized the ruling and the National Trust, labeling them as left-wing 'lunatics' and defended the ballroom's significance.
