    The White House wants to poach tech giants' best workers - new "Tech Force" looks to up the US government's tech skills

    They'll all go in the underground data center being built under the
    former east wing of the White House. :)

    What ballroom?

    Look at the price tag, and look at how much it's cost the government to
    make other data centers. $300 Million is a good starting point.

    Indeed. Data center or a place for the US version of Silksong to hide out.

    Then again, I could see Trump -- with his love of all things shiny and
    gold -- easily spending (wasting) that much on a ballroom.
