Yes, a sinkhole has opened up on the White House lawn
Source: USA Today
A sinkhole at the White House has given "drain the swamp" a whole new meaning.
This week, part of the ground caved in on the White House's North Lawn, close to the briefing room and right outside a deputy press secretary's office. Journalists have noted that the sinkhole has grown larger by the day.
The National Park Service, which oversees the White House grounds, said it is monitoring the situation and plans to bring in experts to determine a remedy.
"Sinkholes, like this one, are common occurrences in the Washington area following heavy rain like the DC metro area has experienced in the last week," NPS spokeswoman Jenny Anzelmo-Sarles said in an email. "We do not believe it poses any risk to the White House or is representative of a larger problem."

Sinkhole opens up in front of Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate
President Trump has been promising to "drain the swamp" in Washington since his campaign, but it now appears that he has a draining issue of his own at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida.
Palm Beach officials tweeted an advisory from the town's Twitter account, saying that a 4'x4' large sinkhole has formed directly in front of Mar-a-Lago.
Officials say that the sinkhole appears to be in the vicinity of a newly installed water main line, and that utility crews have since secured the area and will be conducting "exploratory excavations."
The Palm Beach Daily News posted a photo of construction crews blocking off a main road outside the estate with the large sinkhole leaving a hole in the street.

Interesting this happened one year ago. It could be the devil is getting impatient, as he was already warned last year.

Let's throw in Alex Jones instead. If De Debbil is still hungry after that, THEN you can throw Trump in.
