      Even better: It’ll return to the wetland that was there before it was developed. i find the idea that this prominent spot will likely be the first such pond in the district to sprout cattails and the like, somewhat poetic.

      Edit: I also just realized that the “drain the swamp” crowd is now in a losing battle with said swamp.

    What’s funny to me is that the algae problems started when they switched off of DC tap water and installed the pump system that draws in Potomac River water. Back in 2011-2012. Before Trump was ever a politician.

        i mean if he’s been a politician since the 80s i’ve been one since the Aughts. All i’ve done is build a few homeless shelters and parks and make sure the food banks were well supplied. Highest office i held was being on the executive board of the corporation that ran all that shit. That’s good politics if you ask me.
