Who paid for that one?

Congress. That was the PEOC modernization and expansion, right?

Also—there has never been a major construction job at the White House in modern times that wasn’t simultaneously used as cover for more security, defense, and control upgrade below the surface. I’m assuming that is happening with this one as well.

Just wait—at some point some portion of this job site will be covered with tents or very tall fences. Of course it’s about the ballroom wing but I would be shocked if that’s all they’re doing.

If Trump was defeating cancer. The dems would be rooting for cancer, judges would be issuing court orders for him to stop defeating cancer, and the leftist would be in the streets protesting the genocide of cancer.


Better yet, if Obama was arrested and convicted, but Trump then pardoned him, the dems would insist that Obama go to jail.

I don’t know if Obama will be charged or not, but I doubt it.

Nevertheless, you have a mistaken belief about that SCOTUS case. It does not shield the president from criminal charges if the acts were outside the scope of his official duties, it only gives a presumption of immunity.

Committing treason is still not allowed.

It may not be all Americans.

It certainly would not be the Americans that cheered when a tranny adjacent leftist assassinated Charlie Kirk.

Were laws ignored during those renovations?


Please enlighten us on what laws are being broken now and be specific.

That's like $550 million in 2025 dollars.
Why does everything cost more when it's for the government? I know the answer. Just thought I would broach the subject.

Um, uh, that was immunity "for official acts of the office"....can you show me where that includes a coup against a president?

I thought Obama only added a basketball court and some garden/kitchen renovations. Trump added a tennis pavilion during his first term. This shite is nothing new. However, we do need to stop hosting events in tents

From the WH website.... Here is a list of renovations/modifications to the White House....

White House

Of course it opens with a rather Trumpian statement lol...

quote:

In the latest instance of manufactured outrage, unhinged leftists and their Fake News allies are clutching their pearls over President Donald J. Trump’s visionary addition of a grand, privately funded ballroom to the White House — a bold, necessary addition that echoes the storied history of improvements and additions from commanders-in-chief to keep the executive residence as a beacon of American excellence.
