President Donald Trump is warning against obstruction of the $400 million White House ballroom and rooftop drone base, directly calling out U.S. District Judge Richard Leon for giving in to a «serial plaintiff» and a «ridiculous lawsuit» putting U.S. national security at risk.

«The DronePort at the White House Ballroom will be, perhaps, the most sophisticated anywhere in the World!» Trump wrote Sunday on Truth Social. «It will safeguard our Nation’s Capital, Washington, D.C., long into the future.

«Judge Richard Leon should stop playing games with America’s Security!»

Trump urged Leon to dismiss the lawsuit from a person he described as a «highly litigious woman,» warning the judge would be «held responsible» if an attack hits the White House.

FEDERAL JUDGE QUESTIONS TRUMP AUTHORITY ON WHITE HOUSE BALLROOM PROJECT

«If anything happens, he will be held responsible for the Death and Destruction caused to our Country,» Trump added. «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!

«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!» Trump added.

The post came as the Justice Department again pressed Leon to lift an injunction that has held up parts of the project, arguing in a court filing that a shooting outside a White House checkpoint earlier this month underscored the need for stronger security measures at the executive mansion.

TRUMP PULLS BACK CURTAIN ON WHITE HOUSE BALLROOM’S FORTRESS-LIKE DEFENSES ABOVE AND DEEP BELOW

«In light of the recent attacks against President Trump’s life — including two attempts in less than a month — the injunction entered by this Court for the benefit of a strolling woman, who filed suit against the East Wing Project long before she knew what was going to be built (This is a woman who is a known serial plaintiff throughout Washington, D.C.), and who has absolutely no standing, must be immediately vacated, and this suit, which is a complete embarrassment to our Country, must be dismissed,» acting Attorney General Todd Blanche wrote in the five-page filing.

«This is a terrible, tremendously harmful case to the United States of America, and all it stands for!» .

The gunman who opened fire at the White House checkpoint was shot by officers and later died at a hospital.

APPEALS COURT LETS TRUMP RESUME WHITE HOUSE BALLROOM CONSTRUCTION, SEEKS LOWER COURT CLARITY

Leon ruled in April that Trump lacked the legal authority to build the ballroom without congressional approval. He issued an injunction halting «above-ground construction of the planned ballroom,» though an appeals court quickly put that order on hold, allowing construction to continue until June.

The lawsuit was brought by the National Trust for Historic Preservation, a congressionally chartered nonprofit organization. The group has said it would not drop the case, even after the Justice Department cited a foiled attack at the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner in April as a reason to dissolve the injunction and dismiss the lawsuit.

Trump previously disclosed that the ballroom project would include a rooftop drone base and a six-story underground military complex with a hospital and research facilities.

During a tour with reporters , Trump said the ballroom’s roof would be built for military use and designed to withstand a direct attack.

«The entire roof is built for military,» Trump said. «They have a massive drone capacity. Not only is it drone-proof, if a drone hits it, it bounces off, it won’t have any impact. But it’s also meant as a drone port that would protect all of Washington.»

The proposed 90,000-square-foot ballroom would dwarf the historic White House complex and has become a flashpoint in a broader fight over presidential authority, security spending and the preservation of historic federal buildings.

WHITE HOUSE SAYS EAST WING DEMOLITION WAS NECESSARY DUE TO STRUCTURAL ISSUES

Trump has argued that the ballroom is necessary to host large events of up to 1,000 people in a secure location, saying current White House entertainment spaces are too small.

The White House has said the project’s security features include titanium fencing, hardened roofing, thick special glass and underground facilities. Trump told reporters the roof would be made of «impenetrable steel,» and said the fencing was strong enough that «a bulldozer cannot knock it over.»

El cuerpo sin vida de una mujer fue localizado al interior de un cafetal, en el cantón El Paste, de Santa Ana, en el occidente de El Salvador. Elementos de la Policía Nacional Civil (PNC) confirmaron el hallazgo la tarde del sábado 30 de mayo a través de sus plataformas oficiales. La víctima presentaba un golpe en la cabeza, según información oficial difundida por la PNC.

El hallazgo se produjo a aproximadamente 10 metros de la calle que conecta hacia el Valle Nuevo, en la jurisdicción de estación El Coco, Chalchuapa, en el sector oeste de Santa Ana. El Movimiento de Trabajadores de la Policía (MTP) informó que el cuerpo ya se encontraba en estado de descomposición y las autoridades, en un inicio, catalogaron el hecho como “muerte por sobre averiguar y determinar en autopsia”.

La víctima de la cual no se ha difundido su nombre tenía 34 años de edad.

Pocas horas después del hallazgo, a las 8:00 de la noche de ese mismo sábado, la Policía Nacional Civil anunció la captura de Armando Adelio García Martínez, de 40 años, señalado como el presunto responsable del crimen y pareja de la mujer. De acuerdo con el informe policial, la mujer habría sido “lesionada en la cabeza con un objeto contundente”. Las autoridades procedieron a remitir a García Martínez por el delito de homicidio, mientras se investigan las circunstancias que rodean el caso.

La PNC indicó que las pesquisas continúan para determinar el motivo detrás del ataque y establecer si existieron antecedentes de violencia entre la pareja.

El caso en Santa Ana se suma a una serie de hechos violentos recientes en el país, en un contexto donde los reportes oficiales muestran una disminución en los homicidios, aunque persisten episodios de especial gravedad que involucran a mujeres y situaciones de violencia intrafamiliar.

En el barrio El Calvario, dentro del distrito de Olocuilta, municipio de La Paz Oeste, se registró otro hecho violento el sábado 30 de mayo. A las 2:29 de la tarde, una ciudadana alertó al sistema de emergencias 911 tras observar un cuerpo flotando en una poza ubicada sobre la calle principal que conduce al cantón El Chilamate.

Al llegar al lugar, agentes de la Policía Nacional Civil confirmaron la presencia del cadáver, que fue identificado como Francisco Ismael Aranda Guzmán, de aproximadamente 53 años. Testigos relataron que al mediodía hubo un altercado entre varias personas que estaban consumiendo bebidas alcohólicas en el sitio. Tras el conflicto, los involucrados abandonaron el lugar.

Hasta el momento, las autoridades no han confirmado si el fallecimiento de Aranda Guzmán está relacionado con el altercado reportado, ni si se trata de una muerte accidental o provocada. La PNC mantiene las investigaciones abiertas y no ha ofrecido nuevas declaraciones sobre el avance del caso.

Según datos oficiales publicados por la Policía Nacional Civil, el mes de mayo registra al menos seis homicidios en todo El Salvador. Estas cifras corresponden únicamente a los reportes formales presentados por la autoridad policial. El análisis comparativo muestra una marcada reducción en los homicidios si se compara con años anteriores. En 2018, el promedio diario superaba los 10 casos, mientras que en 2025 y 2026 la tendencia se mantiene baja, con días en los que no se reportan homicidios y solo algunos picos aislados que, en el caso de 2026, suman seis homicidios durante todo mayo.

Graham Platner’s wife Amy Gertner came out to defend her husband’s Senate campaign Saturday, but X reactions to the five-minute video are rebuking it as damage control that did not dispute recent allegations against the Maine Democrat.

«So it makes me really angry, disappointed, and I find it really shameful that there’s a group of media outlets and people who are willing to spread gossip, instead of talking about real issues that Graham is running on — like healthcare and education and childcare,» Gertner said hours after the Wall Street Journal reported that Platner exchanged sexual text messages with several women after he and Gertner were married.

«Being newly married is hard. Being newly married and going through infertility is hard. Being newly married, going through infertility, and a Senate campaign is hard.»

The wife speaking for her husband after the surfacing of allegations against him – and not the candidate himself – was seized on by critics and social media users replying to the video post.

«Graham Platner admitted to sexually explicit text messages with over a dozen women and having an account on a ‘predator paradise’ child exploitation app, then had his wife – a victim of his deviant actions – defend it,» National Republican Senatorial Committee press secretary Samantha Cantrell told Fox News Digital on Sunday.

Fox News Digital reached out to Platner’s campaign for a response but they did not immediately respond.

«It looks and sounds like a hostage video,» one X user responded to the video. «Blink twice if you need rescuing, Amy.»

The controversy comes as Platner, a progressive oyster farmer and military veteran running to unseat moderate incumbent Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, has drawn support from national Democrats, including Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., who previously praised him by saying, «That’s my kind of man.»

«I don’t even know if I have the right words to describe what we’ve been going through, but our marriage counselor helps, my personal counselor helps, Graham’s personal counselor helps, and we work on our mental health every day,» Gertner added.

«No marriage is perfect, and I don’t want a perfect marriage. I want my marriage, and I want to be married to Graham.»

But X users rebuked the use of the wife to defend the Senate campaign.

«It’s not your wife’s job to defend your infidelity, creep,» writer Emily Zanotti wrote on X.

«The big problem here is that this story only covers what exists out there: potentially dozens of emails, text messages, and videos Platner sent to who-knows-how-many women, which the campaign is now praying aren’t next to be leaked,» she added in another post.

Another X user, who is a self-proclaimed 2028 Kamala Harris for president supporter, denounced the fact a campaign «has forced his wife to make a #hostage video,» urging «Amy, please reach out to .@MEStatePolice so they can remove his firearms from your home.»

«Shame on Graham for putting her in this position,» another poster wrote on X.

Despite the blowback, Gertner did stress they have «a great marriage.» 

But critics note the video did little to answer allegations surrounding the Democrat Senate hopeful, particularly with the admission of mental health and infidelity struggles in a still-new marriage.

«I have incredible empathy for a woman who’s just had a miscarriage having to make a video defending her husband’s infidelities,» Moms Demand Action founder Shannon Watts wrote on X. «But a man so damaged by combat – according to him and his family – that he’s said and done destructive things for decades needs to recover, not run for Senate.»

Gertner’s video statement confirmed the mental health questions and notably did not deny the reporting.

«I knew the man that I married is wonderful and dynamic and probably a genius,» Gertner said. «I knew the man that I married had been through an immense amount of violent active combat. He’s been in therapy for years. I just I admire the f— out of him.

«So when there are news articles about our marriage, it’s just extra sh—-. Can I say that online? I hope I can.»

Earlier Saturday, Platner’s campaign confirmed the controversial text exchanges to Politico following a report from The Wall Street Journal that noted a former campaign aide seeking to get ahead of opposition research leaked the damning allegations.

«They’re trying to make this woman a scapegoat when she was clearly the canary in a coal mine,» Watts added in another X post, sharing a Facebook message from alleged whistleblower Genevieve McDonald, who rebuked those defending Platner’s campaign: «We cannot be this painfully stupid.»

«So I think I’m feeling angry today, and I don’t normally make public statements, but it’s really important for me to tell all of you out there — especially people who are voting in Maine — that I think it’s shameful behavior to spend time and energy and resources on negative ads and negative stories on Graham when all he’s trying to do is improve the lives of people who work for a living,» Gertner added.

The irony of rebuking «attacks» was not lost on critics.

«Have you read your husband’s campaign attacks, press releases and X posts?» former acting Director of National Intelligence Richard Grenell wrote on X, replying to the campaign video post. «You think you all get a free ride to brutally attack others and not get criticized yourself?»

«Put on your big girl pants – he’s running for 1 of the 100 Senate seats,» he added.

Among the «attack» posts noted by Grenell was one from the same Platner campaign X account earlier in the day.

«Susan Collins is spineless and corrupt,» the campaign post read. «And in 157 days, we will defeat her.»

Among the reactions to Gertner’s video post were shock that infidelity in their marriage allegedly happened so quickly after she admittedly «got married in 2023.»

Also, critics noted the scripted and rehearsed reaction video where she admitted that «this is like my 20th take.»

After the withdrawal of Maine Democrat Gov. Janet Mills from the primary, Platner is his party’s presumptive nominee in Maine’s Senate race before the June 9 primary.

Rep. Jake Auchincloss, D-Mass., is the most prominent Democrat publicly pushing back, calling Platner’s Nazi-linked tattoo (Totenkopf/SS Death’s Head) «personally disqualifying» and urging Maine voters to reject him.

Collins is in a vulnerable seat in the closely held Republican Senate majority 53-47, having served for 29 years since Jan. 3, 1997. Democrats have long targeted Collins for a potential Senate seat flip, particularly because of her checkered voting past that historically has not been a rubber stamp for President Donald Trump’s agenda.
