The United States Supreme Court will allow President Donald Trump to continue his $400m White House ballroom project for now, temporarily pausing a judicial order that would halt much of the development. US Chief Justice John Roberts signed a temporary order on Friday allowing work to proceed while the court considers an emergency appeal from the Trump administration. Lower courts had ordered a halt to the $400m project, finding that it must have congressional approval. That ruling was set to take effect on Friday.
