Trump Unveils Heinous Ballroom Sneak Peek in SCOTUS Plea

The Daily Beast · back to the audit
President Donald Trump offered a sneak peek into his White House ballroom as he argued that it's too late now to stop construction of his massive vanity project. The Solicitor General's filing emphasized construction progress: "Today, the Project is 65 percent complete in its entirety, and moving quickly toward total completion." The administration argued stopping work would create dangerous conditions: "Contractors will be left in limbo, and the existing building would risk dangerous instability." On the court's authority, the filing stated: "If allowed to go into effect, the injunction would wrongfully install a single district judge as sole arbiter of what further construction is 'strictly necessary.'" The nine Supreme Court justices have until August 21 to rule on the case.
