A new lawsuit warns that there's a "substantial likelihood" President Donald Trump "will keep or destroy numerous records after his term in office."

Senate Republicans were weighing on Wednesday whether to remove all or part of $1 billion for White House security funding from their $70 billion party-line immigration enforcement bill over concerns about President Donald Trump’s yet-to-be-built East Wing ballroom.

Senate Republicans have removed a $1 billion Secret Service funding provision linked to Trump's East Wing ballroom project from their immigration enforcement bill, after the Senate parliamentarian ruled it violated reconciliation rules and internal GOP opposition mounted.

Q: Has President Trump asked for a billion dollars for the ballroom? A: Since the White House announced plans in July for a ballroom, the president has promised to fund its construction without using public money.

A federal judge said Wednesday that White House staff must preserve their official records, including communications that they send via non-official text message services, pushing back on attempts to free President Donald Trump from record-keeping obligations that were set by Congress.

The emergency order undermines the Trump administration’s efforts to weaken a decades-old recordkeeping law established after the Watergate scandal.

A federal judge ordered White House staff and President Trump's top advisers to comply with a law that requires certain presidential records to be preserved.

Democratic senators plan to force a vote this week on President Donald Trump’s new $1.776 billion settlement fund to compensate political allies, testing Republican unity as Trump lashes out at lawmakers in his own party.
