Leavitt Returns to Blast ‘Deranged’ Algae Protesters at Reflecting Pool

Marine One was seen flying over the area Sunday, and Trump said he had “inspected” the Reflecting Pool.

Trump, on Monday morning, reiterated his allegations of the Reflecting Pool being under siege ahead of the nation’s 250th birthday.

“Chemicals have been dumped illegally into the water,” the president wrote in a Truth Social post. “The Reflecting Pool has been torn open with a 300-foot-long gash.

“Please remember that there is a 10-year prison sentence for the destruction, or even the attempted destruction, of such things — Which will be fully enforced!” Trump added in his Truth Social post.

On Monday afternoon, Trump told reporters it was a “350-foot slit from one end to the other.”

“I saw it. They cut it. They cut it very violently,” he said.

When a reporter asked to see photos, Trump said, “You’ll see it in court, but all you have to do is call the parks department, call the Department of Interior.”

The $14.8 million restoration project has sparked outrage from Democratic lawmakers and Washington residents who have descended on the National Mall to inspect the pool.

During an appearance on CNN, Michigan Rep. Debbie Dingell said her constituents are “outraged” by the algae.

The president has vowed to keep cleaning up the nation’s capital despite efforts from Democrats and leftists to stop him.
