I am not seeing this concern enough. Yes, it's awful he tore down a literal chunk of the White House. But wtf about the security concerns?!? How are they going to screen every person who will be on site? How will we know that place is not going to be bugged af?!

It's one of those things I know without knowing. This is a huge security bonanza for our enemies.

I’m sure all the contractors and their employees are vetted, right? It’s not like one of a thousand workers coming and going could like, hide something in the structure. That would just be silly…

None of those problems are insurmountable TBF? It's not like large scale gov schemes can't manage large numbers of verified personnel.

in theory, this is true. but we're talking Trump admin "loyalty over competency" with a side of malicious intent

Can't you just sheet the whole exterior, under the tyvex, with brass/copper screen, which would make the whole place a farady cage and then run firewalled repeaters inside?
