Trump’s White House Bunker: Plans, Demolition, and Controversy
Reports indicate that President Trump is overseeing the construction of a new, top-secret underground complex beneath the White House East Wing, replacing a decades-old facility dismantled during a recent demolition project. Citing national security concerns, the White House has defended the project in court, with plans for the new bunker expected to incorporate modern technology to withstand a range of threats. The exact details and costs of this subterranean work remain classified, but will ultimately be paid by taxpayers. The new facility will likely be designed to serve as a hardened command-and-control space during crises, similar to previous installations like the Presidential Emergency Operations Center (PEOC).
