Newly obtained records show the full list of deep-pocketed donors who contributed to President Donald Trump's White House ballroom project, including names not previously disclosed, according to a list obtained and published by The Washington Post on Thursday.

WaPo reported that the biggest donors included the pro-Israel oligarch Miriam Adelson, who gave $25 million; tech giants Apple and Nvidia, which each gave $25 million; and Charles Ergen, the co-founder and chairman of Dish Network, who also gave $25 million. Despite pledging that the ballroom would be "paid for a hundred percent by me and some friends of mine," Trump has not put any money toward the project, according to the outlet.
