Heavy machinery continues to tear down a section of the East Wing of the White House on the second day of construction on President Donald Trump’s planned ballroom, which he has said will be built entirely with private money. "This is a historic landmark building. I have no idea how they were able to even get the permission to do this demolition and to do it in such a furtive, clandestine way under cover of darkness," says Lisa Holder, a civil rights attorney. "It's kind of bizarre. It's kind of shocking."

00:00Oh
01:00I've been, I've walked by this since I was a little girl, like for decades, and I was shocked
01:26to hear and see that they are demolishing a part of the White House.
01:31And then upon, you know, further investigation, I found out they're demolishing it to build
01:35a ballroom.
01:37I'm, I'm astonished.
01:40It's, it's pretty upsetting.
01:44Number one, I don't know that this is something clearly that the public has a right to know
01:49and to weigh in on because this is America's house.
01:52This house does not belong to any one official.
01:55It belongs to the people.
01:57And so if you're going to, you know, demolish a part of this house, you have to ask the
02:03people permission.
02:03This is a historic landmark building.
02:07I have no idea how they were able to even get the permission to, to do this demolition
02:12and to do it in such a sort of furtive, you know, clandestine way under cover of darkness.
02:19It's kind of, it's kind of bizarre.
02:22It's such kind of shocking.
02:23So yeah, I'm, I'm definitely startled, taken aback and hopefully the, now that the people
02:32know that, that this was something in the works, even, you know, even in the aftermath,
02:39hopefully people can weigh in on it and there may have to be some sort of repercussions.
02:47This is, this is not acceptable.
02:48I think everything that's happening here is pretty shocking and not a great sign of the
02:55times all over the time, but it's just a developer doing what a developer does and trying to not
03:03caring about anything except their own profit and image.
03:10And we have a developer as a president, so he can do that to the White House.
