Insane Security Features of the White House

September 15, 2026 · 24 min

Show notes

Since 1800, every single president of The United States has lived and worked in the White House. It’s a big job that puts a big target on their backs – so over the years, security features of the White House have been constantly upgraded. The exact details are kept pretty confidential, but from past biographies, public construction records, and well-timed photos, we do actually have an idea of what’s going on behind the front door! From roof-top missiles, to hidden snipers, and even underground bunkers, join me as we take a look at what makes the White House a formidable fortress.
