Another update on the state of the reflecting pool and the reported algae blooms. Grateful to the Department of the Interior and the National Park Service working around the clock to make our nation’s capital look incredible for our 250th!

Y’all must go through a pair of knee pads every hour.

"they put in high levels of fertilizer" JFC how are you a fucking elected member of Congress Pathetic. I can't believe we sent you to DC

Maybe the contractor should’ve done a better quality work. Granite is very hard to paint unless acid washed and etched.

Donald Trump is destroying America. Everything he touches turns to shit.

Please tell me that this idiot understands where algae comes from. Is this his first visit to Washington DC? He thinks they put fertilizer in the pond? If yes, they’ve been doing it for the last 30 years like clockwork. 😂

Are you going to go visit the Ellipse and talk about the damage there? Or to the East Wing that is no longer there? Or the damage to the marble on Kennedy Center? How about the Rose Garden? I doubt you have the courage to stand up to Trump, the GOP has no balls anymore.

If you believe for one second that this was more than subpar work from a shit contractor, then you don't need to be representing our great nation in any capacity whatsoever. If this or any other contractor had completed the job effectively, a detached liner never would've occured

Best comment on your Facebook post calls this the DEFLECTING pool…

Don't make excuses for a substandard fix that cost the taxpayers millions of dollars. You know that paint was peeling and no one was arrested who took a paint chip or touched the peeling paint until it became big news and people wanted to cover their backsides.
Nobody is vandalizing the reflecting pool

Nobody is buying this crap you lard arsed cretin There were no vandals It's incompetence. But no doubt a Trump supporter profited from the work and another will profit from putting it right Goodbye more American tax dollars Wasted by a corrupt, senile, orange nonce.

Why does it need people working around the clock? Will you admit Trump fucked up?

Misinformation is a must from Republicans. They are very corrupted people Trump had this done. These are his guys pulling in the chemical.

Why did they lie last week and say everything was great?…🤷♂️

Please produce ANY evidence that someone dumped fertilizer into the Reflecting Pool. Any at all. Saying "some people are sayin'" is the same as lying, Tim.

What the hell is wrong with you? I’m embarrassed that you represent my state.

It was fine before this bullshit, dumbass

"Apparently" a group of "some kind" of vandals, you keep 'hearing stories", you"don't know" except you seem convinced "they" actually put in "some type of fertilizer" and some "nut job" was peeling some of the paint off the bottom. All made up to cover Trump's rank incompetence.

The amount of focus and time spent on that silly reflecting pool is ridiculous. We used to be a proud superpower. Now we’re a piss ant country with an excuse-making liar for a president.

Dumb ass MAGAts couldn't pass a ninth grade science class, but that never seems to stop them from vomiting baseless conspiracy theories out their stupid faces.

Unbelievable cope. First, this entire area is under constant surveillance. So where are the videos of the vandals? Second, algae wasn’t added to the pool, it grew, naturally. Finally, this entire renovation was hasty and poorly thought out.

People have been arrested for vandalizing the pool! Some say fertilizer and another guy was arrested for ripping the liner! weirdos are wandering around the pool cheering for the algae. These liberal Democrats have Severe mental illness and they’re just full of pure hate!

You’re worried about the destruction of a national monument? I guess January 6th will be included in that statement from you?

@potus has to drain the swamp so the contractor can make repairs to the inferior liner material used for the application

You are a maga moron ! Trump’s contractor who was unqualified to do the job failed to resolve the issues. You blame fertilizer for causing algae bloom in pool , new excuse! It’s just another failure to go with the failed Trump economy, Iran war, healthcare ,inflation…

Hey buddy! The nutjob who caused the algae & peeling is your dear leader & the incompetent people he hired w/no-bid contracts. $14 MIL wasted & they have to do it over. No fertilizer. It was H2O2 Trump told NPS to use on algae from filling from tidal basin

Shouldn’t you be doing your job instead of grandstanding on the Mall? You’ve already established yourselves as the most “do nothing” Congress in history.

Failed high school biology, didn't you.

You really apparently could be more stupid..you would need semi trucks fukk if algae producing material to infect that many gallons of water. Why do you speak? Do fukkin tired of every stupid fuk out there thinking they need to make a video..

Tim, I want to believe you're a halfway honest guy. These are talking points handed down to you. Lies. "Go out & say that "people are sayin'" somebody put fertilizer in the water." This stain doesn't wash off, Tim. Are you a liar?

YOU keep making excuses for INCOMPETENCE! WE will keep replacing you by ELECTING DEMOCRATS!!!!! FOUR MONTHS... that's all. Packed that office yet?
