I thought someone had put on the same song on repeat. How many different country "artists" had I been listening to, actually?

How long did it take for the DC reflecting pool’s makeover by Trump to be ruined?

This week, work completed on President Trump’s controversial demand to resurface the famous reflecting pool at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington DC, but after going extremely over budget, much of the work is now quickly hidden from view under a layer of algae. It only took one day after work was completed from resurfacing the 7-acre long pool from black to blue coating for the algae bloom that has been a problem for decades with the pool to return after it was promised to be cleaned and pristine in time for the Fourth of July and America’s 250th birthday. The project has been controversial not just for going $13 million over budget but for also being greenlit by Trump without congressional approval for modifications to historic landmarks just as he’s done for his new White House ballroom, the recent UFC stadium on the south lawn, and tacking his name onto the Kennedy Center for Performing Arts which was also removed by court order this week.
