WASHINGTON (UNITED STATES) - An arts commission stacked with allies of US President Donald Trump gave the greenlight on Thursday to designs for his massive triumphal arch, as several lawsuits seek to halt the project.
The Commission of Fine Arts, whose board was fired last year and replaced by White House picks, voted 4-0 to approve the planned 250-foot (76-meter) arch, which includes large golden statues of an angel and eagles on top.
