Companies involved in White House ballroom construction are taking their websites offline, report says

Several companies involved in President Donald Trump’s controversial remodeling of the White House’s East Wing appear to have taken their websites offline amid heavy criticism of the project.

Some pages claim their sites are “undergoing maintenance” or are – fittingly – under construction, while others have tampered down their social and online presence. Construction on the president’s $300 million ballroom started last week, with workers demolishing the East Wing of the historic building, which has previously housed the office of the first lady.

The move has caused outrage from Democrats and other critics, with a recent poll finding that just 28 percent of U.S. adults support the demolition project, while 56 percent oppose it.

Trucks bearing the logo of EAI Rolloff, a Maryland-based hauling company, were spotted last week taking discarded materials to a scrap yard outside Washington D.C., CBS reports. The company’s website is "Undergoing Routine Maintenance” and currently has no other links available.
