Take down that wall. For sure.

I would never trust a word that is said in that building, to not get to Putin. The turd has made it the biggest of security risks.

Sure, they can scan for bugs, but the russians are known for their hi-tech listening devices, many probably too small to be readily discovered. All it takes is for one, strategically located, to get by unnoticed.

It would be too expensive to dismantle it and rebuild it.

So it should become "The People's House". It should be used for tours, historical gatherings, dinners, state visits, everything ceremonial. Real meetings about important topics would be held in a secure place, NOT in the White House.

I'm not sure where they could secure a place for Biden, but I would NEVER trust that building to be safe for any top secret business.

It would be just another legacy of the turd. It would be a constant reminder to everyone what a treasonous bastard he was.

Like I said, it isn't a viable option, but...

They’re going to have to borrow a conference room from one of the three-letter agencies to do presidential work in. My preference is NSA for two reasons: I have a fondness for NSA, and it’s on an Army base so the Russians would have a hell of a time doing technical surveillance.

We can't be sure that the White House isn't a pandemic zero ground and we don't want our President elect to get it.

We were discussing that last night in terms of covid. They need to clean and sanitize everything and make it public.

Vehicles, all our property. Yes, even the flags. I hope they did a thorough cleansing on the presidential suite atWalter Reed. And the VP residence.

The level of toxicity on our National Home and its extensions is beyond anything we could ever imagine. The psychic poison alone needs a deep spiritual cleansing.
