Bravo to this. Stop scapegoating cities for the failures of all parts of our nation.

There are so many ways Jeff Bezos has ruined the once-great @washingtonpost.com, but my god it is the Arlington MEMORIAL Bridge. You’d think the DC paper of record could get the names of major bridges right. Or did Trump change the name and I missed it?
WaPo caption for stupid gold leaf covered sculptures says Arlington National Bridge.

That’s only allowed in Wisconsin. Sorry, I don’t make the rules.

Anti trans hatred is the same as any other anti-gay, religious, or racial hatred we have ever known. This includes the efforts to dress it up, hide it, and make it about protecting women or children. That's exactly what bigots did to Black and gay people.

If you were born in the 1970s, get a measles titer. Turned out that I needed a new MMR because I only got one shot when I was a kid and my measles and mumps levels were too low to be effective.

Broadview 6 update: We are about to see the AUSA attempt to put the blame on the current US Attorney — and vice versa. This fight will result in learning about more wrongdoing. It’s a path to mutual destruction. I’d like a copy of the nonpublic Grand Jury Manual. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/25/u...

I am uncomfortable reading this about another lawyer. If it were directed at me, the judge wouldn’t have to worry about silly objections, because I’d already have died of shame.

It’s possible Trump’s approval ratings go UP if there’s no coverage of him. Maybe the press ban is a masterful plan by WH insiders who see what is happening in polls around the country but can’t get their boss to stop doing stupid things on camera.

Drug trafficking is not a death penalty offense. No one should get the death penalty without due process. (This is not war. No one’s life was in immediate danger here.)

Case assigned to Judge Timothy Kelly who ruled in favor of CNN in 2018 when the White House tried to ban Jim Acosta. (He’s a Trump I appointee.)

I sure would like Congress to have a hearing to ask military officers whether an open traffic circle near a major bridge is a good place to store munitions. Hey Mr. Enemy, it’s BOGO: blow up our ammo storage and get a free bridge destruction.

Maybe greed will act as a limiter plate here if we can’t get real campaign finance reform: (1) Billionaires put a lot of money into candidates, (2) those candidates lose, and (3) billionaires decide not to “waste” money on political donations in the future.

Admin law is one of those sleeper law school courses (esp if you practice in DC). It comes up ALL the time in real life and across many practice areas. What I learned in 1998 is outdated but then again so is what I learned in con law, crim pro … everything except property? TAKE THIS CLASS PEOPLE!

DCA is the best airport for many reasons — and this is one of them. I can get from my office to the airport in 30 minutes for a few bucks. And with a view of the Potomac (via yellow line not the blue line)!
