The White House is bugged!
No, not like that. But actual flies are swarming the place, confounding housekeepers, irritating aides, even trying to feast on the president. During an East Room interview with John Harwood for CNBC and The New York Times on Tuesday, a giant fly orbited Mr. Obamas head.
I got the sucker, the president boasted after fatally slapping the critter on the back of his hand.
That scene became an instant YouTube sensation and resulted in a complaint from the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.
Well, I guess it cant be said that President Obama wouldnt hurt a fly, lamented Alisa Mullins of PETA on the organizations blog. The animal rights group announced that it would send over one of its Katcha Bug Humane Bug Catcher contraptions to the White House in the event of future insect incidents.
White House staff members report that they and their boss have been routinely bothered by the bugs, and have seen the First Exterminator personally enforcing a no-fly zone in the West Wing.
He chases them down in the Oval with his briefing papers to smack them, reports Austan Goolsbee, a member of the presidents Council of Economic Advisers.

Trump is going to need to have the place fumigated - physically and spiritually.
Good FR related thread on this from 2013:
Is Obama biblical Lord of the Flies? Prophesy sites have field day with presidents insect moments
Well we all know what draws flies.
Podesta claimed that Hillary stunk of "boiled cabbage, farts, and urine." (scourced in WikiLeaks)
Interestingly, Moochelle told interviewers what Barry Hussein smelled....bad. So much so that sometimes his daughters didn't want to go near him.
Ping - I referenced one of your threads.
I’m not surprised...
many of Obama’s “guests” don’t know what soap is...
Hillary - “old person smell.”

The White House should be fumigated before the new First family takes residence.
Imho of course.
5.56mm
Even frogs won’t eat those green flies,they taste like.....
Fumigated, as in ALL types of bugs. Total electronic audit and screening. A “clean room.”
Just saying
5.56mm
Or, perhaps, an exorcism. . .

[my Chameleon loves flies]

Beelzabubba’s “legacy”.
Barack Hussein Soetoro 0dinga Soebarkah Whetaver 0bama is Lord of the Flies.
From Dean Reynolds’ CBS Reporter Notebook, October 7, 2008:
“The McCain campaign plane is better than Obama’s, which is cramped, uncomfortable and smells terrible most of the time. Somehow the McCain folks manage to keep their charter clean, even where the press is seated.”
No surprise:
“Flies, like all other insects, detect odors with their antennae...containing olfactory sensory nerve cells. These nerve cells are extremely sensitive to volatile chemicals, odors that is.”
