Summary
The Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, freshly renovated for $14.7 million and touted as complete by President Trump, is now facing algae blooms and peeling paint—just weeks after its supposed finish. Crews are pouring hydrogen peroxide into the water to combat the green mess, while authorities, including U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro, warn that anyone damaging the landmark will face prosecution. Trump has accused vandals of dumping corrosive chemicals, calling them “sick” and “deranged,” though no evidence has been presented. Pirro stressed that even minor acts—like introducing algae-causing substances—could lead to serious charges, underscoring the importance of protecting this iconic symbol of American history.
