spoiler

Also the second time around it is heavily implied that Shady Sands was nuked by the uber-libertarian House because why compete in a fair market when you can just nuke potential regulators.

you think Hank is working for House rather than the Enclave?

spoilerYeah Hank feels more House than Enclave by far

spoilerpossibly, his radio conversation when he first got to the big Vault-Tec HQ could have been trying to reach house but it was pretty ambiguous so could have just as easily been the enclave or someone else,

However House was (in FNV anyways) was always primarily concerned with Vegas, and didn't necessarily want to destroy the NCR if they left Vegas untaxed and under his control, so imo blowing up Shady Sands in California seems more like an Enclave move than a House one(The enclave want to destroy all other power structures in the wasteland to become hegemon in north America at least, while House seems content with an 'independent Vegas')

Also in the last episode during Barb's flashback young hank circumvents Betty to sit in on the meeting with House's body double where he first presents the mind-control chip and is diligently taking notes, which seems more like the move of an Enclave spy trying to get as much info on what House is up to to pass up to his superiors than of someone already working for House

And the reveal at the end of this episode that the senator lady's(who was implied to either be enclave or a dupe for them) head was running the mainframe seems like another connection between Hank and the government/enclave

That said Hank's vibes are more business than government, I'll guess we'll see next episode or season

In new Vegas house wants to keep the ncr around in order to extract wealth from its citizens. It doesn't make sense for him to destabilise the wasteland.
