The “temporary” chain link fence blocking public access to the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool in the aftermath of President Trump’s shambolic overhaul of the iconic site could be in place until early next year, according to federal procurement records reviewed by The Independent.
National Construction Rentals, Inc. of Mission Hills, California, was awarded the $37,263 job, which runs through January 8, 2027, an official contract summary shows. The Secret Service hired the same company in 2019 to erect “barricades and fencing” around Trump’s private Mar-a-Lago club in South Florida, which cost taxpayers some $17,000.
