White House Ballroom Security Debate
A gunman opened fire near the White House last Saturday, killing himself and wounding a bystander—President Trump was inside but unharmed.

Though the project isn’t new, the $1 billion plan has sparked backlash: senators question the cost, a lawsuit challenges the demolition of the historic East Wing, and critics argue transparency is key. The administration insists secrecy is vital for national security—and that the threat justifies every dollar. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
