Washington, D.C., United States – Web Desk: A US federal court has ordered the White House to halt construction of a proposed ballroom until approval is secured from US Congress.
The ruling comes after a petition filed by a group raising concerns over the project, which was subsequently accepted by a federal judge. The initial court order suspends work on the estimated $400 million ballroom project linked to the administration of Donald Trump.
The case highlights ongoing scrutiny over public spending and executive authority. Critics have questioned the use of government resources, particularly amid economic pressures in the United States.
Separately, reports indicate that Trump has spent more than $100 million in public funds on golf-related activities during his presidency, with the White House describing such time as “executive time.”
Analysts say the court’s intervention underscores the importance of legislative oversight in major federal projects and reflects broader debates over fiscal accountability and governance in Washington.
