Pretty dark stuff going on @TheAtlantic — contributing writer James Kirchick being an open Islamophobic bigot, and the editor Jeffrey Goldberg (a former IDF prison guard) blocking folks who call it out.

The D.C. Council has restored funding for lots of social services and programs that @MayorBowser proposed cutting in the budget, but it also kicked the can down the road on some big spending and revenue challenges the city is facing: notus.org/metro/dc-council-v…

Friends have asked me why I'm not ranking McDuffie at all. It's a story about corruption at ABCA (alcohol licensing agency) and what McDuffie did as chair of the relevant Council committee (spoiler: absolutely nothing) 1/11

Wow a Nats employee admitted on video they use digital surveillance and secret facial recognition to track their fans and what they search on online via cookies
I’m sure the Nats aren’t the only team who does that, but that’s scary
BREAKING NEWS: Washington @Nationals Director of Community Relations Admits on Hidden Camera to Active Religious Discrimination Against Starting Pitcher Trevor Williams, Surveillance of Nationals Fans’ Google History, and Segregated LGBTQ+ Corporate Meetings to an O’Keefe Undercover Journalist
“One of our pitchers, Trevor Williams. He’s super Christian-Catholic, all these tattoos that mean a lot.”
“The Dodgers had a group… who were drag queens who sometimes dressed up as nuns. He [Trevor Williams] went on social media like… ‘This is my religion. You all are mocking it.’”
“Because of that, we [Washington Nationals] don’t use him [Trevor Williams] on social [media].”
“Like, when they're like, is a hot dog a sandwich? And like, the players come up, you know what I mean? Like, we [Nationals] don't ask him [Trevor Williams].”
“If you ever come to a Nats game, there is someone on our team who is responsible for figuring out everything about you and assigning you into a bucket of people. If you’re accepting cookies, we’re getting a plethora of your Google history.”

Terrible answer.
It’s not an “internal matter.” It’s management of the entire police department. Citizens have a right to know! Mayor?
Interim Chief Carroll declined to comment when I spoke with him after memorial service. Says it’s an internal matter. @nbcwashington can confirm multiple officials have been served termination papers.

We have lost our way.
These people stood by our servicemembers and we’re leaving them out to dry.

Kenyan McDuffie says to look at his record. Well, a few years ago he offered to push for more homes for more people, and... nothing. moderatesforjaneese.substack… @janeese4dc

Listen to every word of this powerful speech from @Janeese4DC. Everyone needs to understand that this child care crisis is a manufactured crisis. We need to lead on early childhood. Another candidate in this race likes to put it in his platform, but once again, didn’t show up.

She's right that he doesn't show up for education oversight. I think I've attended or watched every education hearing at the DC Council in the past 8 years. I remember McDuffie being at a total of 1 out of hundreds of them. Maybe it was a few more. But almost always absent.

Forgive me, but I find what Mark DeRosa did to be quintessentially American.
Illiteracy and assuming we have everything figured out is kinda our thing.
Thank you for the touching tribute to our nation, coach! 🫡

Would love to hear an update on this. What are they up to now? Back to school? New career? Taking up watercolors?
Meet the NYPD officers who say if Zohran Mamdani wins, they're out.
Many told me they always thought they'd do 25, 30 years on the force. But not anymore.
"It's not worth it," an officer with 20 years on the job told me. thefp.com/p/nypd-cops-i-will…

The background here is @Janeese4DC opposed Mary Cheh's solar industry bailout that raised energy costs on DC residents.
Both supported solar energy, but Janeese opposed funding it by raising rates on working families.
It was so regressive that even environmentalists opposed it!
Interesting: Former Ward 3 Councilmember Mary Cheh is endorsing @kenyanmcduffie for mayor, saying that he has proven “he can get things done” while opponent @Janeese4DC has a record that “is essentially barren.” Cheh’s endorsement is helpful in vote-rich Ward 3.

Hundreds of people are dead. Little girls are dead. Six Americans are dead. Others are risking their lives. Millions across the Middle East are terrified.
It's not a video game. It's not a meme. It's not another chance to troll the libs. It's fucking war.

Hey @Jetblue Your flight attendant chose to begin the flight by specifically thanking President Trump and his cabinet for all that they do. This will be the last time I choose your airline, and I will tell everyone about my experience. And oh yeah, fuck off

$85,000. Taxpayer dollars.
Ward 2 Councilmember @brookepintodc spent $85,000 of district funds to send a mailer to 97,750 DC residents highlighting the work of her judiciary committee according to Pinto’s office. The mailer was sent just days before Pinto announced citywide run for Congress. @nbcwashington
