MAGA is saying Dems sabotaged the pool..-Gemini says

The Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool’s rapid algae growth following its $14.2 million renovation was primarily caused by residual algae flushing from dormant supply lines, combined with the pool's shallow, stagnant water and abundant direct sunlight. [1, 2, 3, 4]
The quick regrowth can be attributed to a few key factors:
•Dormant Supply Lines: The pipes that feed water into the pool sat dormant for eight weeks during construction. When refilled, the system flushed the living, residual algae trapped inside these lines straight into the pool. [1, 2, 3]
•The Perfect Algae Environment: The Reflecting Pool is long, shallow, and constantly exposed to direct sunlight. Without aggressive chemical treatments, sunlight combined with stagnant water creates a natural, rapid breeding ground for algae. [1, 2, 3]
•Historical Vulnerability: The pool is built on unstable mudflats, causing consistent concrete shifting, leak issues, and poor natural circulation. [1]
To resolve the bloom, the Interior Department deployed nanobubbler filtration systems to naturally oxygenate the water and used chlorine treatments to clear out the residual buildup. [1, 2]
