A small federal agency deciding whether to approve Trump's ballroom has received tens of thousands of public comments. More than 97% oppose the project, per @washingtonpost analysis. "I did not vote for this," one 3x Trump voter wrote.

Historic preservationists sued to stop Trump's White House ballroom. A judge ordered it halted. But the administration appealed, and the first parts are now rising aboveground amid a legal battle and congressional fight over who pays. w @ddiamond washingtonpost.com/politics/2026/…

SCOOP: Trump allies want D.C.'s July 4 fireworks to set a world record. The super-sized spectacle for America's 250 is expected to run over 30 minutes, about twice as long as typical Fourth of July fireworks, coinciding with feds ramping up to the highest level of security ever for an Independence Day in D.C. axios.com/local/washingt…

Playing over 7600 yards at the tips East Potomac will be longer than many PGA championship courses (South Course at Torrey Pines is 7765, Augusta is 7545 yds, TPC Sawgrass is 7185) Also plugging interview with Trump and Burgum from Dec about the plans: wsj.com/politics/polic…
Secretary Doug Burgum@SecretaryBurgum

Excited to unveil the design for the East Potomac Golf Links renovation from Fazio Design. Like iconic public courses of Bethpage Black & Torrey Pines, East Potomac will offer locals—of the National Capital Region—championship-quality golf at affordable, highly discounted rates.

Historic preservationists sued to stop it. A federal judge ordered a halt to it. But the White House appealed. And as the legal battle drags on, the first parts of Trump’s planned ballroom are now beginning to poke above-ground. With @jonathanreports washingtonpost.com/politics/2026/…

Sad because the news side used to have really good video podcast and video interviews, but most of those people were laid off...

"The videos posted by the Washington Post so far feel extremely dated, as though they were made either with zero resources in 2012 or by someone who has never watched a YouTube video or listened to a podcast in their lives." 404media.co/washington-pos…

I wonder if that's why he resigned—he seemingly caved on vaping only to find out a day or so later that he was at risk of being pushed out or fired anyway. He's probably caved previously on other issues but it's never enough for this White House. One of the stories said that he told FDA staff not to share regulatory decisions with HHS staff before public announcements were made because HHS has a leaking problem he reportedly said

Fascinated by the dueling narratives emerging over Marty Makary's exit at FDA. Strikes me that a few things can be true. 1) There were efforts afoot, for weeks, to oust him. 2) He also pushed back on vaping policy (but approved it, contra claims that was his breaking point).

New: Miami residents are suing Trump over his planned library, alleging he's getting an illegal benefit. The land for library was owned by a state-operated college and valued at tens of millions of dollars. DeSantis and allies handed it over for $10. washingtonpost.com/politics/2026/…
