The lies are that Trump is switching to taxpayer funds after promising that it was being funded privately.

Article says in title Republican lawmakers will fund it. Well, that mean government money.

Nothing stop Congress from adding some contribution if they want.

Go back and reread what I wrote.
I’ve already explained it.
 
I am hoping that Trump will release the Kraken against Iran in the middle of his China trip.

As expected by me, Trump ask taxpayers money for ballroom:

I doubt US Congress is able to make law without inserting any sort of writing checks.

So, the ballroom itself is privately funded according to that article. It is the security elements to make it hardened against people wishing to harm others that will cost the tax payers money. Ok.... That is normal. But the initial cost of most projects is born by the public as well. I say take the private funds and be grateful.

It is hard to argue against the need for the security when people are actively taking shots at the president and anyone close to him. I am betting Lincoln would have preferred to have more security as well. :)

I heard somewhere that several of your top guys and their families have had to relocate to high security installations because the level of threats against them are so serious. They can't live any longer at their residences. That's crazy.

Well, historically speaking leftists insurgencies are decade(s) long bombing campaigns by them or are crushed by army Franco style.

Where is reason why communists/far left are antifascists. Because fascists do love to crush them (army, people).

So far, color revolution in US has failed.

Stop being annoying.
Even the title of the article says that it is for security.

What that covers is anyone’s guess.

This breaks Trump promise of private funding. That's point. He broke promise.

C'mon, adequate security should be included from start, not found wanting. Before start of any works, there were already attempts on his life, tso security shouldn't be forgotten.

So now adequate design will cost 1.4 billion instead of 0.4 so designers have totally missed costs.*

So this shows that Congress isn't able to create bill without pork inside. Project only requires bill to avoid court order. Therefore Congress only needs to create bill authorizing changes already included in original plan.

Besides, this also shows cultural issue in US public finances: total disregard to bang for buck. No way thinking "resources arr limited, how we can achieve best results for invested money" is used. If this was used around additional 0.1/0.2 would be (more that enough) which could be provided by private means.

For additional examples starts with military.

No wonder US is in soo much debt.

*By the way, on financing public infrastructure usual method is to lie on costs to get project approved and....uppss..we run out of money. Since unfinished project is bad, therefore pay more. Check California railroads for best example.
