The East Wing was built in 1902 & rebuilt in 1942, long after asbestos was used as a fire retardant. So, I’m sure the White House took steps to prevent a known carcinogen from entering the air during the current willy-nilly demolition.
Kidding! These irresponsible assholes don’t care who they kill.

I feel like it wasn’t that long ago that white genocide was the domain of absolute cranks. Now it's official immigration policy. It's hard to wrap my head around how fast things deteriorated.
The depravity of this was neatly captured by the Reuters journalist who shot the image Trump brandished.
“In view of all the world,” he said, Trump used his work to push the idea that “white people are being killed by Black people.”
