    Another here is admonishing us to “watch the video”, which I, too, refuse to do, but, the video apparently gives no details. This is a short Newsweek article on the subject, other articles said the same as this:

    President Donald Trump announced a new Washington, D.C., National Mall project on Wednesday, saying the Department of the Interior is working to “fix” the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool.

    The video shows workers working around the pool, set to the backdrop of Andrea Bocelli’s “Time to Say Goodbye.”

    In a post to Truth Social accompanied by a video, the president posted, “This is the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool before Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum and I fix it. Study it hard because you won’t be seeing this Biden filth and incompetence much longer!”

    When reached for comment, the Interior Department declined to provide any details about the project, while saying it is “committed to this effort.”

      So those saying to just watch the video are either trying to drive traffic to that cancer of a site, or they didn’t even watch it themselves.
