10.22.25 The Joe Mangiacotti Show - Wednesday

You know, folks, I’ve just about had it with the endless parade of outrage coming out of Washington and the media echo chamber. They’re screaming about President Donald J. Trump building a privately funded ballroom at the White House — you’d think he was bulldozing the Lincoln Bedroom with his bare hands the way they carry on. Let’s be honest: every modern president leaves their mark on that house. Teddy Roosevelt built the West Wing, Taft gave us the Oval Office, FDR added a pool and expanded the East Wing, Truman gutted and rebuilt the entire interior, Nixon turned that pool into the press briefing room, Obama added a basketball court — and now Trump gives us a ballroom, privately funded, and suddenly it’s a scandal? Give me a break.
Meanwhile, the Clintons were literally renting out the Lincoln Bedroom to big donors — hundreds of guests, millions raised for the DNC — and took $28,000 worth of White House furnishings when they left. That was monetizing, not modernizing. Yet Trump adds a ballroom, and the media loses their minds.
And it doesn’t stop there. We’ll break down the shocking new House Judiciary action that John Brennan definitely won’t like, DHS exposing how FEMA officials under the Biden administration systematically refused disaster relief on purely political grounds, and the DOJ now reviewing the case. We’ll cover the bizarre and violent episode involving Luigi Mangione, beaten by seven “ladyboys” in Thailand months before the UnitedHealthcare CEO shooting.
On top of all that, New Hampshire is heating up politically — John E. Sununu is back, announcing his Senate bid and setting up a GOP primary clash with Scott Brown. We’ll unpack what that means for Republicans, independents, and liberty-minded voters in the Granite State.
And of course, we’ll take a quick tour of the White House through the years — fires, renovations, additions, and rebuilds — to put this Trump ballroom controversy in historical context.
