21. Endangering national security at the people's house

Wed Oct 22, 2025, 09:13 PM

Oct 22

Word on the street is that the demolition put certain security measures in plain view that were embedded in the Whitehouse structure. Our enemies will soon be able to exploit it and bypass some key defensive features.

Assuming that certain other federal gov't structures have these same types of hardening, places like portions of the capitol building, the Pentagon and CIA HQ and NSA buildings will likely be less secure in the future.

Anyone who thinks Trump isn't trying to destroy America one brick at a time just isn't paying attention. I just want to know why.
