Is President Trump mentioned repeatedly in the Epstein case files?

Yes. Official materials say President Trump's name appears in the released Epstein-related files. A mention is not proof of a crime.

Does the president have the unilateral authority to tear down large parts of the White House?

No. Federal law does not give the President unlimited power to demolish or rebuild large parts of the White House on his own. I cannot give legal advice.
Main legal limit
• Congress has plenary authority over federal property and the District of Columbia.
