And I dont mean just the demolition and supposed plans to build a so-called ballroom, that will probably never happen. I mean think of the opportunity for Putin in all of this? Shady no bid contracts to do stuff, to companies staffed with his goons, now with direct access to WH grounds and infrastructure. Do you really think appropriate background and security clearances are happening for all the contractors involved?
The national security concerns are literally endless as are the opportunities for those who wish us harm.

(427 posts)They might be planting cameras and bugging devices. Maybe even remotely detonated devices as well. But I think SS or Navy comsec people would be sweeping the place every day and scanning everything brought in.
