President Donald Trump's plan for the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool was temporarily derailed after vandals painted a message that the Department of Justice considers a threat.

"Around 7:20 a.m. this morning, the U.S. Park Police was notified by the National Park Service of approximately 15-by-30-foot '8647' graffiti spray-painted in the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool," a spokesperson for the U.S. Park Police told The Washington Examiner on Friday.

"An active investigation is underway, and those responsible will be identified and held fully accountable," the spokesperson added.
