About this episode
Over the past week, construction crews have demolished the White House’s East Wing to make way for a new ballroom to host large events for world leaders and other guests. After initially saying the project would not impact existing infrastructure, President Donald Trump acknowledged on Wednesday that the entire East Wing would be destroyed; by Thursday, it was completely razed. The Trump administration says a new East Wing will be built along with the ballroom. Ad-free podcasts are here!
