    Websites for firms like Maryland’s EAI Rolloff hauling company appear to have since been taken down, offering no contact information and featuring messages such as “the site is undergoing routine maintenance.” That company’s Yelp page has also been hit with one-star reviews and nasty comments.

    “How dare you destroy the people’s house!!!! You are a traitor and should be driven out of business…. you suck!” reads one such review left on Thursday.

    “Backstabbers who hate America and worship the AntiChrist. Took money from Trump and did work without a valid permit. These people are scum,” says another.

    A truck belonging to the company was reportedly seen hauling material outside 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue last week.

    EAI Rolloff is just one of several businesses linked to the 90,000-square-foot renovation that has triggered fury online.

    A vehicle appearing to belong to Maryland-based demolition company ACECO was photographed last week tearing into what used to be the White House’s East Room. Its website now says it’s “under construction,” while commenters on its Yelp page have been blocked from posting reviews following a series of negative remarks.

    “[This company is] illegally demolishing buildings without proper approval or permits. Tearing down part of a national landmark,” wrote one commenter from Oregon. “How do you sleep at night when all of America hates you?”

    McReary Architects scaled down its website to show its ballroom plans and other structures, but no longer features information about its staffers and corporate philosophy, according to CBS News.

    However, Clark Construction, the company overseeing the building of the White House’s massive addition, doesn’t appear to have changed its internet presence. The website for the 119-year-old firm boasts that the company is “one of the largest building and infrastructure companies in the United States” and features information about other projects in the works, including several D.C. museums and memorials.

    The demolition began Oct. 20 without prior notice — and without receiving formal approval from the National Capital Planning Commission, the agency with jurisdiction over construction and major renovations to government buildings in the region.

    Trump has said the ballroom is being privately funded and claimed that he intends to sink “million of dollars” of his own money into the project. He has denied reports he’ll name the ballroom in honor of himself.
