Ben Meiselas of MeidasTouch wants an injunction to halt Trump's White House ballroom

Ben Meiselas calls on those with standing to act: seek an injunction to halt Trump’s White House ballroom. Argue fraud—Trump claimed he’d pay and not alter the structure—and use the damage to the East Wing as the emergency basis. Demand discovery now.

This is Our White House, a historical treasure he has no right to tear down.

Nobody will do this. We will be left with a messed up historical building that will demonstrate the cowardice of the GOP for all time.

Who has legal standing??? National Historic Landmarks??? National Parks??? Some esoteric government agency that hasn’t been raped by DOGE or Krasnov + his lackeys???
It’s the People’s House — Krasnov sure didn’t ask us…

I pray that Ben is successful in his plea to State AGs or law firms to do what's necessary
to stop Trump from dismantling our White House.
