This is gone now. The East Wing lobby two years ago.
This is what it used to look like inside the lobby area.

I am pretty amazed Trump actually got someone to tear down a huge percentage of the WH without any word getting out beforehand. That in itself seems extremely bad

Chris Murphy: "There's a lot of history that has taken place in the East Wing & it was just destroyed without any conversation in the public, without any consent of Congress. It's absolutely illegal. That visual is powerful b/c you're watching destruction of the rule of law as those walls come down"

So the senator who is retiring condemns it and the two senators up for reelection wanting Trump’s endorsement won’t comment. Courageous and principled as always.
