The White House is the official residence and principal workplace of the President of the United States, located at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW in Washington, D.C. It has been the residence of every U.S. president since John Adams in 1800.
The house was designed by Irish-born James Hoban and built between 1792 and 1800 of white-painted Aquia Creek sandstone in the Neoclassical style. When Thomas Jefferson moved into the house in 1801, he (with architect Benjamin Henry Latrobe) expanded the building outward, creating two colonnades that were meant to conceal stables and storage. However, in 1814, during the War of 1812, the mansion was set ablaze by the British Army in the Burning of Washington, destroying the interior and charring much of the exterior. Reconstruction began almost immediately, and President James Monroe moved into the partially reconstructed Executive Residence in October 1817. Construction continued with the addition of the South Portico in 1824 and the North in 1829.

A visiting head of state enters the house for a state dinner through the North Portico. Tourists finish their tour by exiting through the North Portico. The house was originally built without porticos. Before construction of the north portico in 1824, the north façade looked much more similar to Leinster House shown in the picture immediately below.

"And let me say: hurtful, deceitful questions deliberately designed to underm...

Hackers believed to be associated with the Russian government are thought to have intruded into sensitive parts of the White House computer system. Suspected Russian hackers allegedly first broke into the computer network of the U.S. State Department. They then hacked into the White house system by sending a phishing email using a State Department email account and gained access to sensitive information such as real-time non-public details of the president’s schedule, CNN reported. Investigators said although the hacking was routed through computers around the world, they found markers that led to the suspicion that the hackers were working for the Russian government, according to CNN. However, the White House has denied that their classified systems were compromised. “We're constantl...

WASHINGTON — No internet. No mobile phones. No electricity to power refrigerators, run the vacuum cleaner or keep the lights on. No respite for weeks or possibly months. No Netflix. This is what would happen should a massive solar storm hit Earth, the threat of which the White House is taking seriously. In October, the White House published a 19-page paper outlining preparations and responses to massive solar electromagnetic pulses (EMP) that could potentially cripple key infrastructure. Dubbed the “National Space Weather Strategy,” the document calls for more studies on potential effects of space weather on power grids; more research to better model and predict space weather; and more cooperation among scientists and agencies at the international level, among other proposals.

Everywhere you go
There's someone looking for you
And everyone you know
In the house that you've come to
Tom and Elizabeth
And unbearable Steven

On the way to the White House
I'm sorry I can't stay
