Multiple Top Trump Officials Relocate to Military Housing Amid Security Threats in Washington Area

News summary

Amid escalating threats and political violence, at least six senior officials in President Donald Trump's administration have moved into military housing near Washington, D.C. Key figures such as White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, and Army Secretary Dan Driscoll have relocated to secure military bases to avoid harassment, protests, and doxxing. These moves, unprecedented in scale, have strained housing resources usually reserved for top military officers. The officials pay fair-market rent, and the arrangement potentially reduces government security costs by consolidating protective teams. The shift reflects the deepening political polarization and increasing threats faced by government officials, with some fearing both domestic and foreign dangers. This trend highlights concerns over safety and the blurring of civilian and military boundaries during Trump's administration.
