WHAT HAPPENED
An appeals court issued a two‑week hold on the $400 million White House ballroom project, prompting former President Donald Trump to accuse the judges of creating a "national security threat" and to criticize them on social media, according to US news | The Guardian.
The ruling halted construction of the controversial ballroom, a project that had sparked debate over its cost and purpose. Trump took to social media to denounce the court, calling the decision an attack on national security. Meanwhile, the same Guardian article notes that Senator Lisa Murkowski announced a planned 'no' vote on Todd Blanche’s nomination to lead the Department of Justice, with Senator Bill Cassidy expressing concerns over Blanche’s independence, given his past role as Trump’s personal lawyer.
The ballroom has been a point of contention since it was approved during Trump’s presidency, with critics citing budget overruns and questions of necessity. The DOJ nomination dispute reflects broader political tensions over the administration’s influence on key appointments.
