A Golden Ballroom or a Golden Opportunity for Scandal?

Lavish Plans and Private Donors

A 90,000 square foot ballroom, capable of hosting 1,000 guests, is set to overshadow the main White House building. The president insists private donors, including Apple, Amazon, and Google, are funding the project.

Critics Raise Concerns

Senator Elizabeth Warren leads the charge, calling for an investigation. She warns of a "golden crime scene" and questions the motives behind the donations, given the donors' ties to the government.

Demolition Contradictions

Photos of the East Wing demolition surface, contradicting the president's earlier promises. The president later admits the demolition was unnecessary, deepening public skepticism.

Supporters Defend the Project

Supporters argue the donations are patriotic, but critics remain unconvinced. The Stop Ballroom Bribery Act, introduced by Warren and Representative Robert Garcia, aims to tighten rules on private donations.

Speculations Continue

The president recently hosted a dinner for billionaire friends, unveiling plans for a new national monument, further fueling speculation about the true motives behind the ballroom and other projects.
