Trump's Triumphal Arch Plan Approved

The proposed arch would be situated near the National Mall and serve as a centerpiece for the nation's 250th anniversary celebrations.

Critics, including late-night host Jimmy Kimmel, have mocked the project as 'tacky' and questioned the cost of such a vanity project during a time of economic uncertainty.

The commission's approval comes with several caveats, including a requirement for the design to be more 'uniquely American' in its execution.

Supporters argue the arch will become an iconic landmark and a symbol of national strength under the Trump administration.
