Heavy machinery continues to tear down a section of the East Wing of the White House on the second day of construction on President Donald Trump’s planned ballroom, which he has said will be built entirely with private money. "This is a historic landmark building. I have no idea how they were able to even get the permission to do this demolition and to do it in such a furtive, clandestine way under cover of darkness," says Lisa Holder, a civil rights attorney. "It's kind of bizarre. It's kind of shocking." br br #WhiteHouseDemolition #WhiteHouseEastWing #TrumpWhiteHouse #WhiteHouseConstruction #TrumpBallroom #HistoricWhiteHouse #WhiteHouseUnderConstruction #EastWingDemolition #TrumpRenovation #WhiteHousePolitics #WhiteHouseNews #TrumpProjects #WhiteHouseRenovation #WhiteHouseUpdate #WhiteHouseControversybr br Also Readbr br Judge Denies Mark Meadows' Request: Georgia Election Subversion Case Stays in State Court :: br Ex-Trump Official Peter Navarro Found Guilty in Congressional Probe into Jan. 6 Attack :: br br br ~PR.152~HT.408~ED.
