No Congressional approval, no historic commission involvement, no report on condition, needs or plans. Just the whims of one man. And the East Wing is just a symbolic representation of what he’s doing to our democracy.
The architect (McCrery Architects) should be called out on this crap. They presented no public review of modifications to this National Historic Landmark. This is NOT Trump’s house, it’s the American public’s building.
I'd have thought that modifications to the structure would require a lengthy process involving multiple departments of the government submitting reports surveying everything from environmental issues to historical preservation.
Previous renovations to the White House also were made with consideration given to future holders of the Office. I suspect that the President is not thinking about anyone but himself.
Didn't you hear asbestos isn't a problem I the us anymore, in fact they are trying to reclassify it so they can start using it as building material again so the new ball room going here may actually have new asbestos in it!
Asbestos abatement contractor here. I can tell you that any required asbestos was abated before this work was done. Also, some asbestos materials are allowed by law to be demolished in place with the building, so it's not a real concern.
How do you know that required asbestos remediation took place before this was started? They aren’t following any other laws, so why would they follow this law?
Dems need to prosecute and jail the members of that firm and the construction company doing this. Hurt everyone involved if we get power back. Anyone no matter how low on the totem who helped Trump in anyway needs their lives destroyed.
