White House Renos and Political Heat | Minneapolis News
Description
The White House is getting a major makeover—with a price tag soaring to nearly $927 million, paid for by taxpayers. Meanwhile, the Reflecting Pool vandalism case is heating up again as prosecutors reconsider charges after new info suggests it might have been an accident, not intentional damage. On the aesthetic front, $5.1 million was spent gilding equestrian statues near the Lincoln Memorial, and the Kennedy Center’s $250 million renovation still includes plans to engrave Trump’s name. In Minnesota, election spending is exploding: one Super PAC’s pouring $22 million into ads targeting vulnerable GOP seats. And DHS has launched a probe into left-leaning groups in the state, including unions and immigrant advocates, over alleged ties to protest supporters.
