Trump’s administration won’t seek new bids to repair the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool

The Trump administration will not seek new bids to repair the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, with Interior Secretary Doug Burgum stating the same contractor will handle repairs. The pool's damage, attributed to vandals by Trump and Burgum, includes multiple cuts to the liner, while repairs face challenges like algae blooms and peeling coatings. Former Olympian David Hearn was arrested for damaging the pool, with his lawyers accusing authorities of misusing government power.
