Trump Appeals White House Ballroom Ruling to Supreme Court
The D.C. Circuit blocked Trump's $400M White House ballroom project for lack of congressional approval. Trump has now appealed to SCOTUS, testing executive authority over federal property. Trump's rhetoric ('we are PRESIDENTS') and the court's 'temporary tenant' framing sharpen the separation-of-powers stakes. This case could define presidential power over congressionally funded property.
