President accused Wes Moore of ‘gross mismanagement’ after federally managed sewer line ruptured last month

A month after one of the largest sewage spills in US history began soiling the Potomac River, Donald Trump and the Maryland governor, Wes Moore, are fighting over who bears responsibility for a disaster involving a federally regulated pipeline that Moore does not control.

The president used his social media platform on Monday to accuse Moore of “gross mismanagement” after a big sewer line ruptured last month, causing what researchers describe as one of the largest sewage spills in US history.
