AllSides Media Bias Rating: Lean Left
Construction crews have spent weeks digging up the South Lawn of the White House to build a massive granite helipad to accommodate Donald Trump's Marine One helicopter.
But the president has reportedly directed contractors to redo the work after growing frustrated by the lawn's slope, which prevents the landing pad from sitting level with the horizon.
According to The Washington Post, workers have already started to dismantle the project, which includes taking apart a 100-foot-wide presidential seal.
