This snow gets a 10/10. ✔️ Clear roads! ✔️ Easy to shovel! ✔️ Easy to build a snow person! ⛄⛄⛄ @capitalweather.bsky.social

DC will always rise.

A nighttime scene of 14th and U Street. Street lamps and car headlines illuminate the darkened street, with people walking by and scooters driving through the intersection. A light projection of the words "Free DC for all" with the DC flag illuminate the side of a building on the far side of the intersection.

The District of Columbia is under attack today — not from violent gangs or thieves, but by the President of the United States. The President's weaponization of the Home Rule Act is a direct attack on the 700,000 residents of DC and we will not stand for it.

The President taking over local control of MPD & putting the US military onto the streets of DC under the guise of public safety is wrong. It’s an extreme, outrageous, and dangerous move for our city and the safety of all our residents. (1/5)

This is happening with such ease because everyone has just accepted DC being a colony. There was a trifecta where we could have gotten statehood. And now here we are.

The Senate passed a tiny, logistical fix for DC’s budget and President Trump endorsed it. Now the House is ignoring it, wrecking DC’s finances out of pure apathy. It’s unacceptable. The House must act.

It's wild when you think about it: D.C. had a balanced budget, the House went ahead and unbalanced it to the tune of $1.1 billion, the Senate fixed it, the House sat on the fix, and now D.C. may have to make cuts to programs and staff to address a problem not of its own making.
