.@POTUS on the history of the West Wing: "That used to be a swimming pool on the other side of the wall… that was the famous swimming pool. Now it’s even worse — it’s for the media." 🤣

White House Ballroom Continues Proud Presidential Legacy
The White House | October 21, 2025
https://www.whitehouse.gov/articles/2025/10/white-house-ballroom-proud-presidential-legacy/
In the latest instance of manufactured outrage, unhinged leftists and their Fake News allies are clutching their pearls over President Donald J. Trump’s visionary addition of a grand, privately funded ballroom to the White House — a bold, necessary addition that echoes the storied history of improvements and additions from commanders-in-chief to keep the executive residence as a beacon of American excellence.
FACT: For more than a century, U.S. Presidents have been renovating, expanding, and modernizing the White House to meet the needs of the present day.
In 1902, President Theodore Roosevelt built the West Wing — replacing expansive greenhouses constructed during the Jefferson Administration and establishing the modern day executive office wing with a “classically leaning design” — along with a colonial garden and East Terrace, which eventually became the East Wing.
In 1909, President William Howard Taft remodeled and expanded the West Wing, which included construction of the first Oval Office.
In 1913, President Woodrow Wilson demolished the colonial garden, modernizing it with a rose garden.
In 1927, President Calvin Coolidge oversaw the renovation of the upper floors and attic of the White House.
In 1929, President Herbert Hoover remodeled the West Wing, including reconstruction work in the basement level and remodeling the first floor; after a fire on Christmas Eve, the West Wing was repaired and reopened in 1930.
In 1934, President Franklin D. Roosevelt overhauled the West Wing, adding a second floor, a larger basement, and a swimming pool, and relocating the Oval Office to its current location; in 1942, President Roosevelt constructed the East Wing.
In 1948, President Harry Truman undertook a “total reconstruction” of the White House’s interior, expanding its foundation and footprint — preserving only its exterior walls.
In 1962, President John F. Kennedy constructed the modern Rose Garden.
In 1970, President Nixon converted the swimming pool into the press briefing room; in 1973, he added a bowling alley in the basement.
In 1975, President Gerald Ford installed an outdoor swimming pool on the South Grounds, financed entirely by private donations.
In 1993, President Bill Clinton undertook a restoration and refurbishment of the Executive Mansion.
In 2009, President Barack Obama resurfaced the south-grounds tennis court into a basketball court and added the White House Kitchen Garden on the South Lawn.
In 2020, President Trump and the First Lady completed a new White House tennis pavilion, refurbishing the White House Tennis Court and Grandchildren’s Garden, as well as constructing a new building.
Now, in 2025, President Trump is carrying forward that legacy, breaking ground on a grand ballroom — a transformative addition that will significantly increase the White House’s capacity to host major functions honoring world leaders, foreign nations, and other dignitaries.
White House construction projects through the years:
Groundbreaking poll data reveals the American public's devastating verdict on the COVID vaccine rollout.
A majority of likely voters—56%—now believe the COVID-19 vaccines are likely "killing a significant number of Americans." Even more startling, 28% of Americans personally know someone they believe died from the vaccine.
The collapse in trust extends to hospital care. 32% of Americans know someone who died from COVID in a hospital, and 47% of those believe hospital protocols contributed to the death.
This is a bipartisan crisis of trust. 58% of Republicans, 52% of Independents, and 34% of Democrats share this suspicion about hospital protocols.
The most profound distrust is generational. Among 18-29 year-olds who know a hospital COVID victim, 87% suspect protocols were a factor—a 2-to-1 margin signaling a fundamental breach of trust with the next generation.
The establishment buried the story. The data reveals the truth.
