Republicans Propose White House Ballroom For Security
House Speaker Mike Johnson and other Republicans are advocating for more secure venues for the president following a weekend shooting at the Washington Hilton. Johnson stated on Fox that a privately funded ballroom on a secure compound would be a solution because it lacks hotel rooms above it. The White House is reportedly working on changes to presidential security protocols after the incident. Sources indicated the shooter did not use explosives, which could have resulted in a different outcome.
