The FAKE NEWS — The Guardian, very failing, nobody reads it, they are hemorrhaging money, very sad — they are saying I “quietly redirected” $352 million from the Secret Service to the ballroom. WRONG. So wrong, you have no idea. The most wrong anyone has ever been, and these people have been wrong about Diklis Chump from day one. What I did — and this is very important, you have to be very smart to understand it, which is why the media doesn’t — what I did was execute a beautiful, perfect, legal priority alignment. The ballroom IS security. It is INSEPARABLE from security. I have been saying this from the very beginning, before anyone, I was the FIRST person to say the East Wing needed a major security upgrade. I showed the reporters the construction back in May, they were AMAZED, could not believe how tremendous it was. But the fake news does not want to talk about that.

When I said — and this was a long time ago, very early, very smart — when I said “this is a private thing,” I meant the DESIGN. The beautiful marble, the tremendous gold, the best gold, like nobody has ever seen. The DESIGN is private. The SECURITY is public. Everyone knows this. Many people, very smart people, are saying this is exactly how you do it. The Art of the Deal — you get the private money for the beautiful stuff, and the public money for the security stuff, and everybody wins. Especially me. I mean us. But mostly me.

Now the dishonest media — SO dishonest, it is unbelievable — they keep saying I promised it would be “taxpayer-free.” And it IS taxpayer-free. The $340.8 million, very precise, very clean, beautiful accounting, that went into the account on June 12th labeled “Procurement, Construction, and Improvements” — that is SECRET SERVICE money. That is SECURITY money. Plus another $10.75 million for “Operations and Support.” Operations! Support! You cannot get more security than operations AND support. Congress put the money in the One Big Beautiful Bill — beautiful name, I came up with it — and the bill says the money is for “Secret Service personnel, training facilities, technology and related costs.” And “related costs” — that’s the key. That’s the GENIUS. My lawyers, Harvard and Yale, the best, they said, “Sir, ‘related costs’ means whatever you say it means.” And so I said it means a 90,000-square-foot ballroom with drone-proof chandeliers and drone ports and the most beautiful security infrastructure anyone has ever seen, maybe in the history of the world. And now it does. That’s not a redirect. That’s a priority alignment. A beautiful, perfect, legal priority alignment. Congress thought they were saying no — and by saying no, they actually said yes. That’s the art of the deal. You let them write the phrase, and then you take the phrase, and then you build the ballroom. And they can’t do anything.

The generals came to me — TOUGH men, big men, the toughest — tears in their eyes, said “Sir, Sir, the drone threat at the White House is very real, very scary, we need drone-proof structures and drone ports, very critical, the most critical security enhancement in history.” And I said nobody handles security like Diklis Chump. Nobody. There was a plot against the UFC Freedom 250 event on the South Lawn — Dana White, great guy, he called me and said “Sir, can we do it at the White House?” and I said yes, because nobody else could do that. And the FBI — great people, the best — they thwarted it. Five people in custody. Explosive drones. Coordinated attacks. They were going to target the event and shoot people fleeing. Horrible. And the White House spokesperson, Davis Ingle — tremendous spokesperson — said this proves exactly why the East Wing Modernization Project is needed. Drone-proof structures. Drone ports. Critical security enhancements. And underneath, where you can’t see it, there’s a submarine — because I know submarines, I know more about submarines than the admirals, believe me — there’s the security infrastructure that keeps me safe. Keeps future presidents safe. State dinners. The best food. The best china. When people walk in, they’re going to say, “Only he could have built this.” And they’ll be right.

Congress is full of very LOW IQ people — I am being generous, the MOST generous, because I am a very generous person, maybe the most generous president in history, the historians are saying it — and they did not understand the SECURITY implications. Thom Tillis, who is RETIRING, very weak, very low energy, could not even get reelected, very sad career — he said “That’s a big problem.” No, Thom. YOU are the problem. You are weak and you are leaving because you could not handle the job. Diklis Chump does not leave. Diklis Chump WINS. And Brian Schatz — whatever his name is, sounds like something you’d step in, very low IQ — he said “I don’t know whether it’s the ballroom, but it sounds like the ballroom.” Well Brian, of course it sounds like the ballroom. It IS the ballroom. But legally it’s a security installation. Both things. At the same time. That’s 4D chess. Read the account name, people. Very simple.

The Washington Post — very fake, very dishonest, probably the worst newspaper, close race with The Guardian — they got “internal records” from Clark Construction showing $155 million from Secret Service funds, which is security, $149 million from the White House military office, which is ALSO security, and $3 million from the executive residence, which is security-adjacent. That is ALL security money. ALL of it. And by the way, very illegal for the Washington Post to get internal records from a private company. I will be looking into that, very strongly.

The Federal judge who said I “probably exceeded my authority” demolishing the East Wing — very dishonest, very low energy, does not understand that the President has TOTAL AUTHORITY over the White House. It is MY house. It says WHITE HOUSE. I live there. I make the deals there. If I want to knock down a wall and build a 90,000-square-foot ballroom — that is HUGE, the BIGGEST, bigger than anything Lincoln ever had, Lincoln did not even have a ballroom, very sad for Lincoln, he would have been better with a ballroom — if I want to build a 90,000-square-foot ballroom with the most ADVANCED security features, like my uncle who was a great professor at MIT, very smart genes, the smartest genes, he would have said this is the best deal in construction history — that is my RIGHT. The founding fathers would come to me with tears in their eyes and say “Diklis Chump, you are the greatest president, greater than Lincoln, and the ballroom is tremendous.” They would. Many people are saying it.

And the donations — let me tell you about the donations. The watchdogs, the Campaign Legal Center, never heard of them, probably Soros-funded, very bad people — they’re saying Meta and Coinbase and Lockheed Martin donated. Great companies. The best. Lockheed makes the best missiles. And these watchdogs are screaming “corruption.” But here’s what they don’t get: if Meta and Coinbase and Lockheed — tremendous companies, all of whom happen to have contracts before the federal government, the biggest contracts, billions and billions — if they gave money to my ballroom, that’s not corruption. That’s confidence. The private sector believes in the president. They believe in the vision. The Campaign Legal Center says it’s a risk. I say it’s a risk of greatness. And we’re taking that risk.

The corruption is the FAKE NEWS trying to make the most beautiful, most secure ballroom in history sound like a BAD thing. The corruption is Congress refusing to fund security for the PRESIDENT of the United States. The corruption is — look, Diklis Chump always keeps his promises. ALWAYS. I said it would be taxpayer-free, and it IS taxpayer-free. The $352 million is Secret Service money. Completely different from taxpayer money. Very different. The most different money anyone has ever seen. The taxpayers are paying ZERO. Not one penny. Not one red cent. The most taxpayer-free project in the history of the United States, maybe the WORLD. And it is going to be the most tremendous, most secure, most beautiful ballroom anyone has ever seen. And when you see it, you’re going to cry.
