After the Trump administration splashed out almost $15 million trying to turn the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool an "American flag blue" - huge chunks of blue paint have begun peeling off and floating to the surface. Shortly after the pool was refurbished, algae returned - turning the water green. Workers were told to dump hydrogen peroxide into the pool, dislodging sections of blue sealant in the process.

🚨TRUMP TURNS NATIONAL MALL REFLECTING POOL BRIGHT BLUE Crews drained the 2,028-foot pool in late April and covered the bottom with swimming-pool blue paint. Trump personally inspected the empty basin on May 7 while criticizing earlier repair plans under Obama and Biden that cost $38 million to $300 million. Supporters say the new look fixes years of leaks and green, murky water near the Washington Monument and Lincoln Memorial. Critics call the color tacky as questions grow over a $6.9 million no-bid contract tied to the project.
