Summary
The Lincoln Memorial’s iconic reflecting pool got a shocking twist after its Trump-era renovation: a court filing reveals cuts in the pool’s liner, allegedly made with a sharp object, sparking a mystery and a lawsuit. Park police found damaged caulk and 70 fence posts dumped in the water, while the pool turned green from algae and its blue coating peeled off — blamed by Trump on vandals. But new documents show the cuts aren’t tied to the algae or peeling, leaving the culprit unknown. Authorities are still hunting for the person seen in a video reaching into the water on June 19 — and the case is heating up. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
