President Donald Trump railed against the lawsuit directed at the planned White House ballroom, saying its security features "will safeguard our Nation's Capital."
In a Sunday Truth Social post, Trump published renderings of the proposed drone port that would be included with the ballroom construction, noting the need for enhanced security in light of modern weapons capabilities.
"The DronePort at the White House Ballroom will be, perhaps, the most sophisticated anywhere in the World!
It will safeguard our Nation's Capital, Washington, D.C., long into the future," Trump said.
He went on to criticize the federal judge, Richard Leon, who issued an April amended preliminary injunction halting above-ground construction of the White House.
According to the court document, an appellate court stayed the injunction a day later, allowing construction to resume as the case continues through the legal system.
Oral arguments are scheduled for June 5th.
"Judge Richard Leon should stop playing games with America's Security!
If anything happens, he will be held responsible for the Death and Destruction caused to our Country," the president said.
"He has already created enough problems by allowing 'Top Secret' information to be released and exposed based on a ridiculous lawsuit started by a highly litigious woman (serial plaintiff!)
whose 'strolling,' in her opinion, will be disturbed by the new desperately needed structure — In any event, a woman who has absolutely no STANDING!"
he continued.
He emphasized the weapons technology available in the modern-day environment, stating that more advanced tools are needed.
"With the advent of highly sophisticated, and powerful, modern day weaponry, we can no longer defend Washington, D.C., with rifles and pistols, alone.
This ridiculous lawsuit must be dismissed, IMMEDIATELY!"
he added.
Separately, a $1 billion funding measure was recently dropped in the Senate that would have provided security funding for the White House complex, including for the proposed ballroom, according to POLITICO.
Less than a quarter of the funds were earmarked for the ballroom security features, per reporting by the Associated Press.
