The Biden The administration is ready to clean the house in advance Donald Trump‘s return to the Oval Office… setting up an expensive cleaning service prior to the handover.
According to federal financial documents obtained by TMZ, the WH has called in cleaners to deep clean the West Wing, East Wing and the adjacent Eisenhower Executive Office Building. The cleanup cost a whopping $140,930… and started last month ahead of Thanksgiving.
The White House is also spending another $46,800 to have the carpets in the aforementioned areas deep cleaned… noting that the cleaning was needed before the 2025 inauguration.
This isn’t the first time the White House has spent money to clean up the house. As TMZ reported in 2020 … the Trump administration previously issued a similar order Joe Biden will take office in 2021.
However, the costs were noticeably lower… with the WH down just over $127,000 for the inaugural cleanup. That’s over a $13,000 difference!!!
So either the Biden administration was a bit stricter on the official residence of POTUS, or inflation plays a role here.
The Trump White House also ordered the carpets that need cleaning in 2020…which cost them just over $44,000 at the time.
Once again we see an increase in costs, which was a major issue for voters on Election Day.
Be that as it may, the revamp proves that politics isn’t always dirty!!!
