Reflecting Pool Drainage Drama | Global News
Description
The Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool is being drained again—way past its July 4th deadline—after algae and peeling coating exposed shoddy repairs, with the President blaming vandals while critics call it a setup. Former Olympic racer David Hearn, who allegedly let go of a sealant piece, pleads not guilty as his team and opponents accuse the administration of using him as a scapegoat. The same company that botched the original job is set to handle the repairs without competitive bidding, amid a string of stalled capital projects.
