Is the Destruction of the East Wing a Russian Op?

[Beetwasher.]

And I don’t 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.

1. Everything Trump does

Could be a Russian op.

2. Good point and the

"new construction" happening with little oversight or inspection would mean the opportunity to include listening devices in the structure.

3. And below it all is a SpecOps bunker, right ??

The listening devices will be below the ball room floor.

4. Money laundering 101

Also has that crazed madman feel to it; the aloof billionaire who rips apart the his house and can’t put it back together again.

Humpty Trumpty.

8. A comic said if bin Laden was alive now truep would make him head of the FAA

Dan Docimo?

6. Just the psychological effect on all of us is a huge win for Putin.

Trump is doing his bidding, even if the ballroom is stopped.

7. If the contractors look like the villains from a diehard movie, look out

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.

9. As Pelosi told Chump, With you all roads lead to Putin

So assume the worst. Especially now that his Alzheimer's is a daily exercise in what will he do?
