DOJ Demands National Trust Drop WH Ballroom Lawsuit, Claiming It's Endangering Trump's Life

The Department of Justice on Sunday demanded that the National Trust for Historic Preservation voluntarily drop its legal action to block the construction of President Donald Trump's White House ballroom, claiming the lawsuit "puts the lives of the President, his family, and his staff at grave risk."

In a letter to the National Trust, Brett Shumate, the DOJ Civil Division's assistant attorney general, called Saturday's attack at the White House Correspondents' Dinner an "assassination attempt on President Trump," adding the incident proves "that the White House ballroom is essential for the safety and security of the President, his family, his cabinet, and his staff."

"The White House ballroom will ensure the safety and security of the President for decades to come and prevent future assassination attempts on the President at the Washington Hilton," the site of the WHCD, Shumate said.

"Put simply, your lawsuit puts the lives of the President, his family, and his staff at grave risk. I hope yesterday's narrow miss will help you finally realize the folly of a lawsuit that literally serves no purpose except to stop President Trump no matter the cost," he added. "Enough is enough."

Shumate warned that if the group refused to voluntarily dismiss the suit by 9 a.m. on Monday, the government would "move to dissolve the injunction and dismiss the case," citing the shooting.

Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche posted a copy of Shumate's letter on social media, noting that "it's time to build the ballroom."

Blanche is being a good sycophant..
