White House Deputy Press Sec Jackson Leaving Admin

During an interview on Fox News, Leavitt revealed that authorities have arrested at least five people in connection with the alleged vandalism of the pool.

There have been 14 police reports filed for vandalism, the official added.

Leavitt, who went on maternity leave in late April and gave birth to her daughter in early May, has not returned to her duties in the White House Briefing Room, but she did provide more information on the situation in D.C.

The discussion began when host Sean Hannity detailed President Donald Trump’s plan to restore the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool.

After the project was completed, algae began to grow in the pool. The Trump administration has accused critics of sabotaging the project.

Activists have been appearing at the Reflecting Pool, with some carrying signs in favor of the algae that has destroyed Trump’s project.
