DOJ appeals ruling barring penalty for Kelly on ‘illegal’ orders video

Three Vietnam veterans and an architectural historian have filed a lawsuit challenging the Trump administration’s plan to build a triumphal arch in Memorial Circle near Arlington National Cemetery, saying the move violates federal law.
At 250 feet tall, the proposed arch, called Independence Arch, would rank among the largest monuments in Washington, D.C. President Donald Trump has tied the structure’s height to celebrations marking the 250th anniversary of the nation’s founding.
The lawsuit, filed Thursday in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, argues that federal law requires congressional approval before the arch can be built.
