New Facts: Trump Claims Lawsuit Revealed Military Secrets
Late Friday, President Trump called the National Trust for Historic Preservation “TREASONISTS” and claimed its lawsuit “revealed Top Military Secrets.” He wrote that senior military and Secret Service officials had shown the group detailed plans but it sued anyway despite warnings about the project’s “Top Secret” nature. He said the East Wing complex includes a rooftop “DronePort” and argued the ballroom and underground security infrastructure are a single integrated unit.
He also attacked former Trust president Carol Quillen and cast an unnamed “woman walking her dog” near the White House as a serial plaintiff with no standing, adding that “her name is not even mentioned as a plaintiff in the case.” The Trust has said in court it was not given details of the underground structure and rejected claims that the suit endangers the president.
The post landed as the administration asked the Supreme Court to pause an injunction before it takes effect on August 21 while it seeks full review. The filing describes an integrated military complex with bomb shelters, sniper positions, missile‑resistant construction, and facilities extending five stories underground, and says work is about 65 percent complete. The Trust urged the justices to deny a stay, noting that courts have allowed underground security work to continue while blocking above‑ground ballroom construction.
