Professor Jiang claims a hypothetical White House data centre could enable a ‘private NSA’

What was said

""Because if the data center is under the white house, it's protected by executive privilege. Meaning Congress has no authority to inquire what the data center is doing. With the data center, you can now as president of United States have your own private NSA, CIA, and FBI.""

Continuing his unsupported theory that Trump’s ballroom project is really a data centre, Professor Jiang argues that if such a facility were “under the white house” it would, in his view, be protected by executive privilege and beyond Congress’s reach. He claims this could allow a president to operate something like a private intelligence capability and gather compromising information on political figures.
