Trump’s Ballroom May Be Illegal. So Why Can’t Anyone Stop It? (w/ Ben Wittes)

46 min•23 september 2026

Om avsnittet

JVL and Lawfare's Benjamin Wittes take on the strange legal fight over Trump’s ballroom and proposed triumphal arch, including why standing may be the biggest obstacle to stopping them and what John Roberts’ dissent could be signaling to future challengers. They also dig into a bigger question: whether Congress, the courts, and the power of the purse can actually constrain a president determined to push ahead anyway.
