President Donald Trump has unleashed a series of lengthy social media posts in a rant about a “highly political judge” who has once again demanded a pause in construction on much of the White House ballroom.
District Court Judge Richard Leon, an appointee of former President George W. Bush who has previously expressed frustration at government lawyers in the case, accused those same attorneys of being “disingenuous” in a 10-page order Thursday that clarified above-ground construction of the ballroom is still halted.
