Trump urges lawsuit dismissal for East Wing renovation after White House shooting.

The U.S. Justice Department is leveraging a recent shooting at the White House Correspondents' Dinner to urge preservationists to drop their lawsuit blocking President Donald Trump's proposed $400 million East Wing renovation. Officials argue the attack underscores the urgent need for a secure, on-site ballroom, while preservationists maintain the project would destroy historically significant architecture. The government warned the National Trust for Historic Preservation to dismiss the case or face legal action.
