GovBrief Today #578

Construction crews at the White House are working 20 hours a day on a ballroom the Chief Justice says is likely illegal.

Five justices let the work continue Monday by ruling that nobody has the right to sue over it, but never decided whether the ballroom is legal. Chief Justice John Roberts wrote that federal law forbids erecting a building on park grounds in Washington without express authority from Congress, and Congress has passed no such law.

Donald Trump won again by ignoring the rules and building faster than the courts could stop him. This time he spent at least $300 million of our money on a project he promised would not touch the East Wing or cost taxpayers a dime.

I know that it would be much better to get him put in jail or something, but I very much doubt that that's gonna happen, and if it ever does, it's going to take so long that he'll be dead by the time he's sentenced, I honestly just want him off the face of the earth 😭
