What donors to Trump's White House ballroom stand to gain from the federal government

Dozens of companies are bankrolling President Trump’s planned $300 million White House ballroom, replacing the East Wing, via private and personal funds, according to a donor list reviewed by CBS News. Big Tech, defense contractors and crypto firms appear on the roster, with 37 donors including Google, Amazon, Nvidia, Coinbase, Ripple and Lockheed Martin; YouTube will contribute $22 million under a legal settlement. Many donors have major contracts or approvals before the administration. As critics raise conflict concerns, the White House says taxpayers aren’t paying and thanked donors at a dinner.
