Court Greenlights White House Ballroom Project Amid Legal Tug-of-War

A U.S. appeals court has temporarily allowed the Trump administration to continue building a $400 million ballroom on the former site of the White House's East Wing.
The decision pauses a Washington judge's injunction and sets a June hearing to decide if construction should pause during the appeal process.
The National Trust for Historic Preservation argues the administration lacks the authority to demolish historical structures without Congress's approval.
