Eisenhower Executive Office Building

My argument was to move them off of the premises and move them out by the houses by the Blair House, where Lafayette, uh, Lafayette Square, where the statue of General Jackson is.

Move them in one of those townhouses, and then they can come in on a selected basis every day, uh, with a White House pass to get in, and then they go to the EOB, the old office that's right across that little street inside the compound now, the old, um, the old Department of War and, um, s- uh, State Department that, that-- called the Eisenhower Building, but it's the E-Executive Office Building, the EOB.

Put them over there, not in the West Wing, because the West Wing is quite cramped.

This is why President Trump's making the argument about the ballroom with the new military command center beneath that, where you have-- or below it, where you have the, uh, Situation Room on the West Wing today.

Just by way of geography, what you're seeing now is her walking, as I said, to the Northwest Gate.

If you're familiar with the campus, the executive office building, the EEOB, is to her right.

And she's walking to the guard shack that we all go through in order to get all of our bags swept and just like you would at an airport going through a mag.

And generally, for people who have a White House hard pass, which was taken from Betsy and other reporters, you put on the hard pass, you plug in a pin, and then you go through.

John, you can correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that's the case, a French-looking building.

It's the Eisenhower, the executive office building.

Executive office billing.

Thank you.

I have such a tremendous amount of respect.

We would stay till 2:00 in the morning in the White House EEOB, and he would go around and ask everyone, you know, "What can we do to fix your department?" You know, we had DOGE leads for all these departments.

We-- it might be 45 minutes focused on one department.

And so I, I really think it takes someone with that level of intellect and people willing to serve to dive into, to each of those.

I go through a checkpoint right behind me with Secret Service.

I show them my hard pass, and then I walk past the Eisenhower Executive Office Building and into the northwest gate.

There I put my stuff through essentially what looks like airport security conveyor belt, and then I tap my badge onto a card reader.

I type in a four-digit pin.

They're super fans of the Dilly meme team and you have yours truly.

I say, hey, bro, I want to come by next time I'm over in the Eisenhower and I'd like to come meet the entire vice presidential staff.

I go, could I do that? I want to introduce myself to you guys.

I'm a big fan of what you're doing.
