DOJ and Trump's ballroom 
Justice Department officials asked a federal judge to lift his order halting President Donald Trump’s planned $400 million ballroom, contending in a rambling legal filing that Saturday’s attack at the White House correspondents’ dinner proved why the space is needed.
The Justice Department’s motion — unusually written for a government legal filing, containing dubious claims and resembling Trump’s Truth Social posts — was one of several documents filed to the court late Monday night. The motion also criticizes the National Trust for Historic Preservation, the nonprofit that brought the lawsuit, writing that the group’s “name is FAKE” and claiming that “they suffer from Trump Derangement Syndrome, commonly referred to as TDS.” The motion calls the ballroom a “gift” to the country because Trump plans to pay for it with private donations and boasts about the president’s capabilities.
