$400 million.
That could help build affordable housing. Lower health care costs. Feed hungry kids. Support our public schools. Fix roads and bridges. Help veterans and working families.
Instead, they’re spending it on a ballroom while working families pay the price.

In 5-4 decision, Supreme Court allows construction to continue on Trump’s ballroom, ruling that plaintiffs do not have standing to sue. Roberts joins liberals in dissent, saying that Trump's project is "likely unlawful." @amarimow www.nytimes.com/2026/08/31/us/politics/supreme-court-trump-ballroom.html?smid=url-share&smid=nytcore-ios-share&rsrc=cl-share
