## Resource

The Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, freshly painted in a striking “American flag blue” after a $14 million renovation, is turning green again—with paint peeling off and algae spreading. President Trump blamed vandalism, citing arrests—including that of a 67-year-old man who said he only touched the surface during a bike ride—and hinted at chemical sabotage tied to mysterious numbers etched nearby. But experts say vandalism alone doesn’t explain the mess, and agencies remain silent, leaving the situation oddly unresolved for a national landmark meant to shine.
