The Trust also questioned the $400 million project&#8217;s funding mechanism, which is largely from private donations.<\/p>\n<p>In February, Leon ruled that the construction <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/white-house-ballroom-construction-preservationist-group-lawsuit\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">could continue temporarily<\/a><\/span>, finding that the legal challenge was not comprehensive enough to prove Mr. Trump lacked the authority to renovate the building with private funds and without congressional action.<\/p>\n<p>Leon allowed the National Trust for Historic Preservation to again take its legal arguments for a preliminary injunction to court earlier this month, where he expressed skepticism of the Justice Department&#8217;s legal arguments defending the mechanism to pay for the ballroom.<\/p>\n<p>The judge said that the Trump administration&#8217;s continued arguments that the ballroom was a legally allowable &#8220;alteration&#8221; to White House grounds was a &#8220;brazen interpretation of the laws of vocabulary.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This isn&#8217;t any national park,&#8221; Leon said. &#8220;This is an iconic symbol of this nation.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The President of the United States is the steward of the White House for future generations of First Families. He is not, however, the owner!&#8221; Leon <a href=\"https:\/\/storage.courtlistener.com\/recap\/gov.uscourts.dcd.287645\/gov.uscourts.dcd.287645.60.0_2.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">wrote
