Trump's ballroom construction blocked by federal appeals court

A federal appeals court has upheld the suspension of construction on the ballroom near the White House, initially ordered by a judge in April. According to reports, this decision is not based on the merits of the project itself but on the fact that the American president initiated work without prior approval from Congress.

Donald Trump has described this ruling as a "national disgrace" in response to the court's decision. This situation highlights the tensions surrounding the approval processes for presidential projects in the United States.

The president has expressed his intention to appeal to the Supreme Court to contest this decision. The situation raises questions about Congress's authority over construction projects at the White House.
