The companies and the White House did not respond to questions about specific amounts given. Google and YouTube parent Alphabet in late September agreed to pay $22 million toward the ballroom, in a settlement over a lawsuit by Trump over his suspension from YouTube after the January 6 insurrection. In similar cases, Meta agreed to pay $22 million toward Trump's presidential library, and X agreed to pay a settlement of about $10 million.

I do wanna mention this and that is all of our major TV networks. And this is going to be a somewhat serious note here, all of our major TV networks right now, they're compromised in some fashion as the U.S. Evolves or mutates into having a state-dominated TV system. NBC is now the latest network to compromise itself. The parent company of NBC Comcast recently donated money to Trump's ballroom.

Since taking office for a second time, Trump has overseen massive changes to the physical features of the White House, including a gold-drenched Oval Office overhaul, a paved-over lawn in the Rose Garden, and now a major demolition of the entire East Wing to make way for a massive ballroom. MSNBC was among the outlets that published a long list of donors funding the project, provided by the White House a list that included Comcast.

If there's a controversial statue commemorating a dead white supremacist out there, there's a good chance the president has gone to bat for it. Sad to see the history and culture of our great country being ripped apart with the removal of our beautiful statues and monuments, Trump tweeted in 2017, in response to a push to remove Confederate monuments. You can't change history, but you can learn from it. Robert E Lee, Stonewall Jackson who's next, Washington, Jefferson? So foolish! Trump added.

The White House released a list of the donors paying for the ballroom to be built on the former site of the East Wing.

Trump has said the ballroom will be paid for by himself and donors, with no taxpayer money being used.

Demolition has begun on a portion of the East Wing of the White House in preparation for Donald Trump's $250 million ballroom project. The Washington Post reported Monday, Construction teams were demolishing a portion of the East Wing, with a backhoe ripping through the structure, according to a photo shared with The Washington Post and two people who witnessed the activity and spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe it.
