🚨 While DOGE cuts food stamps, Medicaid, and federal jobs — Trump is building a helipad on the White House South Lawn.
The Wall Street Journal broke the story Sunday. Multi-outlet confirmed.
The reason: the federal government spent $5 billion on a fleet of 23 new Marine One helicopters. Delivery was completed two years ago. They have never been allowed to land on the South Lawn — because their exhaust scorches the grass.
So now the government is building a helipad to accommodate the helicopters it already bought.
