Re: The work done on the White House during the Obama administration. This is from a Snopes article that quotes other sources:
~ “However, many social media posts omitted key context: Congress approved the funding in 2008 following a report by the administration of then-President George W. Bush, and the renovations aimed to upgrade the building’s aging infrastructure, according to the news reports.
It’s misleading to suggest Obama personally “spent” $370 million on White House renovations, as some posts claimed, as Congress approved the project’s funding during Bush’s time in office.
What Bloomberg News and CNN reported
A Bloomberg News report published in The Philadelphia Inquirer on May 22, 2010, noted that a four-year, $376 million White House renovation project had begun, stating that its purpose was to “improve the infrastructure in the East and West Wings.”
According to the report, workers would be “replacing decades-old heating, cooling, electrical, and fire-alarm equipment,” as well as “unspecified security systems.” ~
Initially, Trump had promised that the White House would remain as-is, and the ballroom would be a separate building.
“BREAKING: Politico Reporter Under Investigation for Serving as CCP Spy
“European security services are investigating a former Politico reporter for working as a Chinese spy.”
The Politico reporter “is suspected of using their position as a journalist to cultivate potential targets working in Brussels-based international organisations, including by making sexual overtures towards officials in these institutions.”
Apparently there are some commercials coming out now taking other parts of that same Reagan speech out of context to imply that he would never ever ever impose tariffs, when in fact he was doing so, albeit regretfully, as he made that speech. Polar opposite points made by selective reporting of the same speech. SMH.
As Kevin points out, “Polar opposite points made by selective reporting of the same speech.” Funny how one brief speech can be used to “prove” two opposing points, both of which were wrong.

“The DNC is so mad that President Trump is building a new ballroom at the White House, they posted a sad Instagram video last night.
Too bad their intern put in a photo of the East Wing in Buckingham Palace, not the White House.”
