> A federal appeals court has ordered the administration to stop construction of Donald Trump’s planned White House ballroom, valued at $400 million. The judges said Congress had not approved the project. The National Trust for Historic Preservation challenged the plan and sought an injunction last year. A three-judge panel upheld that injunction in a 2-to-1 ruling. Trump says he will take the case to the Supreme Court.
