White House: Supreme Court allows temporary expansion of Trump's ballroom

The U.S. Supreme Court has temporarily allowed construction to continue on President Donald Trump's planned ballroom expansion at the White House, ruling by a narrow majority of five conservative justices. The decision does not resolve the legal dispute, which remains ongoing. The court emphasized that it did not determine the legality of the project itself but allowed work to proceed during the judicial process. Three liberal justices and conservative Chief Justice John Roberts dissented. The National Trust for Historic Preservation, which opposes the project, argues that Congress must approve such renovations, while the administration claims the president has full authority over White House renovations and cites national security as a justification. Construction is expected to finish the rough framework by November, significantly faster than typical court proceedings.
