Trump likely to name White House ballroom after himself, officials say
Welcome back. Everyone here to stay down from Fox. I'm your host. Mike Pace. We'll continue to bring you some of the biggest news and headlines from around the world today. Okay.
Next, we want to talk about President Trump, a few moments ago. Speaking to the media on a lot of topics, but, uh, really 1 big topic that was talked about a lot. In D.C. this week, oh, not tariffs, really. Not the economy, but it was more centered. Take a look at this video.
Yeah, the East Wing. Demolition plan and operation. Continue to President Trump's ballroom, which is part of the White House. The White House believes that the donation list for 2029 has already been revealed. This week and, uh, shows a lot of different big tech companies.
More than
$250 million worth of donations. It's all, uh, privately funded, um, here. So there's no cost to the taxpayers, but it's certainly caused a lot of people to talk about.
Oh, the demolition. Of the East Wing and really about the future of the White House. And oh, before that, there were reports of President Trump.
Was planning.
Trump's $300 million ballroom likely to bear a familiar name:
Calling the ballroom by its own name, President Donald J. Trump. The ballroom. But oh, President Trump is backing off. Now with new reporting. But let's just play some audio of President Trump a few moments ago.
Oh, Ash was leaving the White House for his Asia tour. Let's listen to him, very upset, we raised over 350 million. It's a very beautiful room, a big room. Oh, I don't have any plans to call it after myself that I expected.
The Presidential Ballroom or something like that, we haven't thought of a name yet. Well, there might be more.
Maybe possibly oh, assuming we can do that, you know, we're building the Therk. And maybe we use it for the boat. I guess.
We're probably, you know, we're going to build the Therk. And we raised a lot of money for the ballroom, so maybe we'll put up some incredible archways for Washington, D.C. So maybe we use it for the ark, okay, so President Trump is saying,
This is fake news, the reporting that was coming out earlier that, uh, he planned to use the ballroom and name it after himself, uh, reporting here as well. President Trump, who updated the ballroom, says
that he has no intention of naming the White House ballroom after himself but there's no official name yet that it could be called the Presidential Ballroom or something.
So it's still in the early stages, even in the naming rights for that ballroom, but there are a lot of pictures, and drafts out, uh, uh, again, we'll wait and see, like, the construction.
ballroom white house donors.President Trump Says White House's Entire East Wing Is Being Torn Dow:
Tourists flock to the White House today to see the demolition of the historic East Wing. The president has admitted that the entire East Wing is going to be demolished. To do it right, we had to demolish the existing structure.
The news is devastating to Michelle Obama, a White House correspondent and author of The Residence, East Wing.
I think it’s so sad and heartbreaking to see pieces of American history destroyed like this. That’s why we’re in the East Wing.
In 2019, I toured the East Wing with Stephanie Grisham, First Lady Melania’s chief of staff,
and was blown away by the wood-paneled walls and grand portico that have now been demolished, and in its place, a grand ballroom will stand. A scale model will be proudly displayed by the president,
It really looks great and looks like it’s the best ballroom everBuilt. The price tag has ballooned to $200 million to $300 million, funded by 37 private donors, including Google, Amazon, Apple Meta, Microsoft and Caterpillar.
It looks so grand; it resembles the ballrooms at Mar-a-Lago; it’s frankly a bit over the top; today, this Democratic congresswoman vowed to tear down the ballroom;
If Democrats ever reclaim the White House, we should build it so that the teahouse can be built underneath it and the companies that built its restrooms back up have to do the work.
Structure. Trump’s allies are pulling back. These are the same people who tore down every statue they could get their hands on, and for the past four years they have had no interest in history. Then suddenly I’m gone, the East Wing facade is famous.
pictures of white house demolition, White House East Wing demolished, new images appear to show:
This
morning, the historic 120-year-old wing of the White House was reduced
to rubble. Satellite images show the dramatic transformation from less
than a month ago. Along the building, at least six trees have been
uprooted,
including two magnolias that commemorate Presidents
Warren Harding and Franklin Roosevelt. All the space is available for
President Trump’s 90,000-ton.
Ballroom This rendering shows what
the ballroom will look like when completed. Much larger than a White
House residence. I don’t think it will be anything like that.
ABCNews
has learned that the White House has required some construction workers
to sign non-disclosure agreements. Officials call this standard
practice for White House security.
The Trump administration has
yet to submit plans to the National Capital Planning Commission, but has
insisted on safely preserving all historic artifacts from the East
Wing. Still, more critics are speaking out. “President Trump has the
right
to level the Rose Garden and strip it of its roses, and to
turn the East Wing into a ballroom,” wrote Chelsea Clinton in USA Today.
Still, it’s troubling that such significant changes are being made
without a historic preservation review. The president says the ballroom,
which is expected to cost $300 million,
will be funded by
private donations and his own money. How much am I donating? I won’t
tell you until I’m done, but I’ll donate whatever it takes. I’ll tell
the young people. The demolition process continues as the government
shutdown enters its 24th day.-+
Today, more than 500,000 federal
workers are set to miss their first full paycheck. And next week, air
traffic controllers will miss their first paychecks, raising concerns
about sick calls that could cause massive flight delays.
I can’t
guarantee your flight will be on time. I can’t guarantee your flight
won’t be canceled. Yesterday, Senate Democrats rejected a Republican
bill that would have paid some federal workers during the shutdown.
/*+
Democrats are offering two solutions that would actually cover all of
our federal employees, not just those the president picks and chooses.
Another big concern is that food assistance money is about to run out
for millions of Americans.
At least 25 states are expected to
stop paying SNAP or food stamp benefits starting November 1 due to a
lack of federal funding during the shutdown, according to political
reports.
Democrats say they won't vote to reopen the government unless Obamacare subsidies are extended.
