President Donald Trump recently criticized Jeanine Pirro for discontinuing the legal case against an Olympic canoeist. The administration had earlier accused the athlete of inflicting over $1,000 in damage to the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. The President claimed Pirro ‘choked’ in her decision not to pursue the charges.

Meanwhile, a National Park Service employee was seen on June 16 using a vacuum pump to remove algae from the bottom of the newly repainted Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool in Washington. This maintenance activity highlights ongoing efforts to preserve national monuments while addressing environmental concerns.
