East Wing demolition has begun. White House says Ballroom construction “will begin … Sept 2025” & is expected to be completed “long before the end of President Trump’s term”
How is that possible?
Even ignoring planning approvals & security restrictions for site access it is a 2.5-3 year build

Some people appear to be taking Sen. Joni Ernst (R-IA) & Trump's "Who's funding the protests?" question at face value
This is a process to dismantle US democratic institutions & enact retribution against those on Trump's long grievance list - George Soros is near the top of that list
