Saudi Crown Prince Announces Massive Funding to Complete Trump’s New White House Ballroom and Assist With ACECO Legal Compensation
In an unexpected and dramatic development, the Saudi Crown Prince has announced an enormous financial commitment to support President Donald Trump’s embattled White House renovation project—specifically the construction of the new presidential ballroom built after the controversial demolition of the East Wing.

According to sources close to the Saudi royal court, the Crown Prince has pledged what officials describe as an “extraordinary and unprecedented” donation aimed at fully funding the completion of the ballroom, a project that has drawn intense public scrutiny and triggered a series of legal battles in Washington.
The announcement comes at a critical moment for the Trump administration, which has been facing mounting pressure following the federal court ruling that held President Trump financially responsible for multimillion-dollar compensation owed to ACECO, the demolition company contracted for the East Wing teardown. ACECO, which sued the administration over unpaid balances and operational violations, recently won a significant judgment requiring the White House to pay both the outstanding fees and additional damages.
In his statement, the Crown Prince emphasized his desire to “support stability and continuity in critical state functions,” framing his assistance as an act of friendship and international cooperation. While the administration has not publicly disclosed the exact amount of the donation, insiders describe it as “large enough to cover the full cost of the ballroom’s completion and provide substantial relief” toward the president’s legal obligations to ACECO.
The White House praised the Saudi contribution, calling it “a timely show of diplomatic solidarity” that will ensure the ballroom project remains on schedule despite the financial and legal setbacks. Critics, however, have raised concerns about foreign influence and the unprecedented nature of a foreign head of state helping to resolve a sitting president’s domestic legal liabilities.
ACECO’s leadership has not yet commented on the Crown Prince’s involvement, though legal experts note that foreign contributions do not automatically discharge the president’s responsibility to comply with the compensation order. Nevertheless, the Saudi funding is expected to significantly ease the financial burden placed on the administration.
As construction crews resume work on the controversial ballroom site, political observers are bracing for renewed debates over ethics, transparency, and the expanding role of international allies in the president’s domestic affairs.
The full scope of the Crown Prince’s pledge—and its political implications—will likely dominate headlines in the days ahead.
