The Supreme Court’s order cites:
“Irreparable harm to a protected national heritage site,”
“Significant unresolved legal questions,” and
“Immediate risk of permanent loss of federally protected historic assets.”
The ruling freezes construction, demolition, and contracting activities.

Finally! Too bad the East Wing was torn down before SCOTUS could act. The suit filed by the Nat'l Trust for Historic Preservation accuses the gov't of >$10B in violations of federal environmental, architectural heritage, & historic preservation laws.

This is what an authoritarian regime would do. Hidden deep in Trump’s 1,100-page bill that passed the House today is a provision that would block federal courts from enforcing contempt charges against government officials who violate court orders.
