30 Minutes Ago: U.S President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Are On The Run as White House is Engulfed in Flames Moments ago, sending thick plumes of smoke into the skies above the nation’s capital. Emergency services are currently on the scene battling the blaze, which appears to have originated in the West Wing around 11:45 AM…

In a surreal and chaotic scene that has gripped the nation, the White House was consumed by a massive fire earlier today, with thick black smoke billowing into the skies above Washington, D.C. Emergency crews are battling the four-alarm blaze, which reportedly began in the West Wing shortly before 11:45 a.m.

Eyewitnesses say the fire spread rapidly, prompting immediate evacuation of White House staff and security personnel. Former President Donald Trump — who recently returned to the White House after winning a second non-consecutive term — was reportedly rushed from the premises alongside First Lady Melania Trump.

Early unconfirmed reports suggest the couple may have fled the grounds via an underground emergency exit and were last seen boarding a blacked-out SUV headed toward Joint Base Andrews. Their current whereabouts remain undisclosed, fueling speculation across news and social media platforms.

Secret Service has declined to comment on the nature of the evacuation, citing “ongoing national security concerns.” Sources close to the administration say the fire may have been caused by an electrical surge in the West Wing’s communications hub, though foul play has not been ruled out.

Footage from the scene shows flames pouring from windows of the Oval Office, with parts of the roof visibly collapsing under the heat. Firefighters have been working for over two hours to contain the blaze, with reinforcements brought in from across the city.

In a dramatic twist, Vice President J.D. Vance was reportedly conducting meetings on Capitol Hill at the time and is now coordinating with Homeland Security and FEMA from an undisclosed location.

As panic spread among tourists and onlookers gathered outside the White House gates, police established a security perimeter around the National Mall, and air traffic was briefly halted above D.C.

White House Press Secretary Amanda Blake said a full investigation is underway and promised transparency.

The President and First Lady are safe. That is our top priority. We are monitoring the situation and will provide updates as soon as possible.”

This marks one of the most shocking incidents in recent presidential history, raising serious questions about security, continuity of government, and the future of the Trump administration.

Updates to follow as this story develops.
