Oddly enough, Fox News calls it "Reconstruction," whereas other outlets have used "removal"
Fox News is co-opting the terminology related to the civil war.
Since so many Republicans called it defacing the road, I'm surprised they didn't call this a restoration project.
Rep. Andrew Clyde, R-Ga., Let's make sure the racist gets full credit for being racist.
Also if you live in DC its your civic duty to repaint the mural every night after they finish working.
What a waste of funds
