Treasury Department employees have been warned not to take and share pictures of the White House demolition from a neighboring building as the ripping up of the East Wing’s facade for President Donald Trump’s new ballroom was described as “grotesque” and “heart breaking” by critics.
“As construction proceeds on the White House grounds, employees should refrain from taking and sharing photographs of the grounds, to include the East Wing, without prior approval from the Office of Public Affairs,” an email sent Tuesday by Treasury officials, and viewed by The Wall Street Journal, read.
