Former President Trump leveled accusations against the National Trust for Historic Preservation on Friday, claiming the nonprofit organization exposed sensitive military data through its ongoing litigation. The lawsuit in question challenges the administration's plans for a ballroom project at the White House, with the nonprofit arguing that the construction threatens historic integrity.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump characterized the organization’s legal actions as harmful to national security, labeling those involved as "treasonists" for allegedly revealing "Top Military Secrets" within their court filings. The president’s statement suggests that the information disclosed during the discovery or filing process of the lawsuit contained details that should have remained classified due to their connection to the "Military Complex."

While the president’s rhetoric focuses on the potential security breach, the National Trust for Historic Preservation has maintained that its legal challenge is focused on the preservation of historic sites and adherence to federal regulations regarding construction on protected grounds. There is currently no independent confirmation regarding the nature of the information cited by the president or whether the documents filed in the case were indeed classified. The organization has not yet issued a formal public response to the specific allegations of treason or the disclosure of military secrets.
