I don\u2019t know what she was thinking? To me, it was a pure case of VANDALISM,\u201d Trump wrote Saturday on Truth Social. Burgum also dismissed the findings in a social media post, saying that \u201cThe evidence is clear, vandals have repeatedly caused damage to the Reflecting Pool.\u201d\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            The new details come from the  announcing it was dropping the case against former Olympian David Hearn, who was accused of vandalizing the landmark.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Here\u2019s what we know about what went wrong with the Reflecting Pool:\n    <\/p>\n<h2>\n        Renovation on an expedited timeline\n<\/h2>\n<p>\n            Trump set out in late March to renovate the Reflecting Pool, which he described as \u201cabsolutely filthy\u201d and vowed to make it \u201clook gorgeous.\u201d\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            In the weeks that followed, Trump expanded the scope of the project and ordered cosmetic changes, including painting the bottom of the pool \u201cAmerican flag blue.\u201d The paint change immediately sparked a lawsuit from a nonprofit group, which argued the project violated federal laws requiring the Interior Department to complete a consultation process before beginning the work.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            The president also wanted the project to be complete before America\u2019s 250th birthday on July Fourth, an expedited timeline that the administration acknowledged drove up the cost \u2014 nearly seven times as much as the initial estimate of $1.8 million.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Installation for the Reflecting Pool lining began on May 5 by Virginia-based firm Atlantic Industrial Coatings, the sole contractor for the extensive project, according to the Justice Department filing.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            The firm used two coating products \u2014 Rhino 406 and Pipeliner 5000 \u2014 in the renovation of the nearly 340,000-square-foot pool (that\u2019s about the size of about six football fields).\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Construction was significantly stalled due to spring showers, which hindered the expedited installation process the Trump administration had hoped for, at one point requiring crews to pump out the rain water to allow the coating to dry, according to the filing.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Crews continued to spray coats of the lining material, but the delays, largely due to weather, caught the attention of an employee with Brown Construction Services, a contractor charged with monitoring Atlantic Industrial Coatings\u2019 progress. \u201cIt appears AIC is significantly behind schedule,\u201d the employee wrote on May 7.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Delays ballooned when AIC ran out of Rhino 406, one of the primary coatings, and a quality control inspector flagged \u201cblistering\u201d in the finished portions of the lining and called for repairs.\n    <\/p>\n<div>\n<header>\n<span>\n      Related article\n    <\/span>\n<\/header>\n<section>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"The Washington Monument is reflected in the recently drained Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool on July 29 in Washington, DC.\" class=\"wp-image-8158\" height=\"144\" src=\"https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/a9be13a1fc0155e64358de78923a4649.jpg\" width=\"256\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<span>The Washington Monument is reflected in the recently drained Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool on July 29 in Washington, DC.<\/span>\n<\/div>\n<figcaption>Kevin Carter\/Getty Images<\/figcaption>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>\n<span>Trump\u2019s Reflecting Pool debacle takes a predictably scandalous turn<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<div>6  min read<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<h2>\n        Algae blooms and lining peels\n<\/h2>\n<p>\n            On June 9, crews completed a final inspection of the site and refilled the pool. One day after it was filled, CNN first observed the presence of algae \u2014 in some areas. It could be seen from the water\u2019s edge on the bottom of the pool. A worker who was vacuuming in the water told CNN the substance was algae.\n    <\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/?p=8142\">\u2018We are knifing each other\u2019: Trump and Thune showdown splinters GOP unity ahead of midterms<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n            At the onset of the project, the administration dispatched a company to use a $1.7 million \u201cozone nanobubbler\u201d to clear the algae, bacteria and other chemicals. The company, Greenwater Services, previously walked CNN through a timeline of its work, revealing some accommodations were needed to meet the president\u2019s July Fourth deadline.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            By June 11, a National Park Service engineer\u2019s attention was drawn to peeling of the Reflecting Pool lining. \u201cOnly the top layer of liner has peeled. This is very thin and will not impact the strength of the liner,\u201d the employee wrote in an email to NPS and Interior Department personnel, according to the court documents.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            The Park Service engineer said the contractor attributed the peeled area as an \u201coverspray\u201d from spraying the perimeter joint with polyurea \u2014 a type of elastic coating. The employee flagged his concern that the \u201coverspray\u201d could lead to a 1-to-2-foot strip that is \u201cvulnerable to peeling,\u201d but said the contractor would not confirm whether this was a risk. The area along the perimeter is where Hearn, the former Olympian, was accused of peeling just eight days after the email.\n    <\/p>\n<div>\n<div>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium_large\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Ducks walk across the drained Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool on July 15, 2026.\" class=\"wp-image-8159\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/027024ce6df191ef51082c5dbdfd9a42.jpg\" width=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/027024ce6df191ef51082c5dbdfd9a42.jpg 768w, https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/027024ce6df191ef51082c5dbdfd9a42-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<span>Ducks walk across the drained Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool on July 15, 2026.<\/span>\n<\/div>\n<figcaption>Al Drago\/Reuters<\/figcaption>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2>\n        Claims of vandalism\n<\/h2>\n<p>\n            As media reports swirled about peeling liner at the Reflecting Pool, Trump firstclaimed that the pool\u2019s broader problems were a result of vandalism.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            \u201cWe\u2019ve had some real problems with Vandalism at the beautiful Reflecting Pool,\u201d Trump wrote on Truth Social, without citing evidence. He said the algae was \u201c75% gone\u201d and that the \u201cvandalized\u201d area would be fixed in late June.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            On June 20, Trump said he met with contractors and vowed to repair the damage as quickly as possible, saying vandals used a blade to cut a \u201c250 foot long gash\u201d and poured \u201ccorrosive and destructive chemicals\u201d into the pool.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Following July Fourth celebrations, the pool was drained again for repairs. The contractor charged with monitoring AIC\u2019s progress inspected the Reflecting Pool and attributed the peeling to overspraying and the coatings\u2019 inability to bond to the surface, according to the DOJ\u2019s filing. Even AIC said that \u201c99% of anything that was going to fail\u201d would show up within a couple of weeks of finishing the renovation.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Trump doubled down on claims in July, complaining about news reports on the pool and insisting the lining \u201cwas slashed with a knife, or a box cutter\u201d and that even the algae blooms were \u201ccaused by vandals.\u201d\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Burgum, in a July 5 interview on CNN\u2019s \u201cState of the Union,\u201d said the government could \u201cabsolutely\u201d prove the damage was caused by vandals, and that there were photographs supporting the claim. But he dodged a question about whether those photographs showed anyone damaging the pool.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Pirro and her prosecutors say they weren\u2019t able to fully view the extent of the damage until July 17, after the pool was drained and a defense expert inspected the site.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            That very day, Trump railed against the alleged vandals on Truth Social, calling them animals. \u201cThe Reflecting Pool, so badly damaged by Deranged Vandals, has been emptied as the massive slash gets repaired,\u201d Trump said, adding, \u201cThe Scum in Court will hopefully be prosecuted to the MAX.\u201d\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            After requesting more documents on the pool\u2019s renovation, Pirro\u2019s office said that information \u201cindicated a rushed and flawed installation process, with repeated failures of the lining during the installation process, and extensive peeling of the lining throughout the Reflecting Pool.\u201d\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Nearly three months from the outset of construction, Trump said Monday the Reflecting Pool is \u201calmost ready to open\u201d once again.\n    <\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/?p=8132\">Acting director of national intelligence says leadership transition will begin Monday after Trump talks<\/a><\/p>\n<div>\n<p>CNN\u2019s Katelyn Polantz contributed to this report.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Justice Department on Friday said the rush to complete President Donald Trump\u2019s renovation of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool led to \u201chasty and botched work,\u201d shedding new light on the problems behind the Washington landmark\u2019s $14 million facelift.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":8155,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8160","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-politics"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
