Wolff: Trump Hid White House Wing Demolition

Author Michael Wolff says President Donald Trump tried to hide plans to raze the White House East Wing to speed a $300 million, 90,000-square-foot ballroom. Demolition began the morning of Oct. 20, with the public largely unaware until Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed the change days later. Wolff recounts Trump asking if it could happen at night and notes demolition moved ahead without the usual reviews, amid leadership changes and firings at federal commissions. The administration restricted photos and put up a fence, while donors—including major tech firms—reportedly fund the project amid internal talk of a 'Trump Ballroom.'
