@gummibear737 @MaMoMVPY and @Microinteracti1 are both peddling the nonsense that somehow the EU can handle its security without us by engaging in endless negotiations and providing money to the terrorist regime in Iran. Let them live in their bubble as they just empty headline grabbers...

Well Romania is letting US operate out of their bases Iran threatened this would amount to “participation in military aggression against Iran” and make Romania a legitimate target Sorry, but not all Europeans are cucks Tell me again how this is not also a European problem?

@SenLouiseLucas Senator Lucas, don't let data centers get away with paying less under the guise of economic development. Data centers should be paying more and funding all the necessary upgrades as they push the system to its limit. VA residents deserve a government that supports its folks!

We are coming back for a special session later this month and I am still standing like a brick wall on the data center tax credit issue. Shifting electric costs on working Virginians back to data centers is the ultimate affordability issue and must be addressed.

@WhiteHouse @POTUS God bless our troops and RIP those soldiers!

The best of America. 🇺🇸

@eat_dc There is no denying that DC has improved significantly over the last decade!

May 2012 vs Today. Florida Ave and 4th St NE.

@gummibear737 Best analysis for our European brothers and sisters to understand why we did what we had to do! Europe would have been the next GCC country if Iran got the long range nuke missiles….

Iran was trying to use the North Korean model to get a nuke: create sufficient conventional deterrence so you won’t be challenged in acquiring one (it’s called the Seoul Hostage Problem). This has been explained over and over since day one. Everyone claiming shifting goalposts or no imminent threat has been lying. The reason North Korea was allowed to get nukes is because Seoul (and its 10 million inhabitants) is within artillery and rocket range of North Korea. During the 1994 nuclear crisis, the Clinton administration seriously considered airstrikes on North Korea’s Yongbyon reactor but backed off precisely because of the artillery threat to Seoul. Iran was trying to accomplish the same by stockpiling missiles and drones which would have had the same deterrent effect. The proof is what Iran has been doing in the past month: attacking all its neighbors in order to pressure the US to stop attacking it Beyond this, they were building medium-range ballistic missiles that could reach Paris and London, meaning all of Europe could be held hostage as they built a nuclear bomb. The reason Iran has not built a nuclear weapon until now is not because it couldn’t, but because it knew it would be attacked and denied this capability. So by allowing them to continue developing this conventional deterrence, you would be allowing Iran to get a nuclear weapon. And unlike North Korea, Iran is led by an eschatological death cult Reagan saw nuclear mutually assured destruction (MAD) as both morally bankrupt (because of the innocent-body-count problem) and dangerously fragile because it assumed flawless rationality between adversaries…this means it only takes one irrational actor to destroy the world. Working backwards from the conclusion that Iran’s Islamist regime must never have a nuclear weapon, it was necessary for the US to attack Iran to deny it the conventional capacity to hold the entire eastern hemisphere hostage. Every European leader knows this and behind the scenes praises the US for this action. But they are cowards, held hostage by their own internal Muslim populations, and so adopt these ridiculous public positions. This was never about Israel. And if your argument is that Iran should be allowed to get a nuclear weapon then you are a fool and a traitor to western civilization…you’re a useful idiot

@maustermuhle @MayorBowser @MayorBowser is right. What is the alternative solution to curfew? If not, then @councilofdc should extend the curfew and allow @DCPoliceDept to stop youth violence.

"It seems like the [D.C.] Council is listening to a very narrow interest group and is very influenced by the election calendar and not what we need on the street," said @MayorBowser just now when asked about the council's decision to not vote on extending the youth curfew zones.

@AUDCRESEARCH @DCGOP @Janeese4DC You are spot on. What is the solution offered by @Janeese4DC to curb the youth from doing violent actions in certain neighborhoods without curfew? No action means no leadership. @kenyanmcduffie would have backed this common-sense measure.

Curfews protect communities --in particular teens-- from violence, but @Janeese4DC opposes this common sense public safety measure. Tell Janeese Lewis George to put kids safety first.

@kenyanmcduffie This is a great endorsement by the first Chairwoman of the @councilofdc, Linda, who is known for playing a significant role in DC during the important budget and development phase of the @TonyWilliamsDC Admin. This endorsement is another proof of @kenyanmcduffie for DC Mayor!

Former DC Council Chair, Linda W. Cropp, has endorsed my campaign for Mayor! "Kenyan understands that governing the District requires more than flashy ideas; it requires the combination of experience, vision and ability to deliver real results. He has authored housing policies and directed critical funding to make DC more affordable to call home across socioeconomic levels, strengthened public safety laws, and consistently worked to reduce the wealth gap. He knows how to bring people together, build consensus, and move a bold proposal from vision to reality." -Linda Cropp As a Councilmember, I took pride in being a coalition builder, bringing people together from diverse backgrounds to achieve one common goal: making our city work better for everyone. As Mayor, I'll continue doing just that.

@PoPville This is not cool. Whoever is doing this is not going to prevent @kenyanmcduffie from winning the June primary as he is the best person to run DC next year!

“I cannot abide.” - I doubt this'll tip the election either way but so very petty: popville.com/2026/03/i-cann…

@ChuckThies @kenyanmcduffie @PoPville I saw some McDuffie torn signs close to Anacostia station too, on Shannon Place... Not cool if anyone is doing it who is connected to one of the competitors...

On Saturday night, a friend spotted this person tearing down @kenyanmcduffie's campaign signs near Eastern Market. He didn't deny anything. He just rode off. Thank you, @PoPville, for raising awareness. Hopefully, making one of the idiots famous will dissuade the others.

@Outtolunch237 @councilofdc London has a full voting MP in the British Parliament unlike DC's non-voting Delegate.

@JosefGasim @councilofdc I dont know why you say that. The Founders intentionally set it up as a city and they were familiar with large cities. London had a population of a million people

On this date in 1961: The 23rd Amendment (allowing DC to vote for President) hit the required approval of 2/3 of state legislatures (thx OH & KS!) & went into effect This map shows how states voted. Gray states (see a pattern?) never got around to it (Really, VA?!?) #DCStatehood

@Outtolunch237 @councilofdc Yes without Founders envisioning having 700k people living in it… It should not take moving to VA and MD to get voting rights for the citizens!

@JosefGasim @councilofdc The District of Columbia was explicitly designed that way in the constitution

@SawyerMerritt @Tesla @elonmusk Yes this is truly the game changer, especially for the senior folks. Next step needs to be not requiring folks to sit at the driver's seat... I have sat at Tesla Model Y that was driven by FSD on busy DC roads and the car performed way above expectations!

This 93 year old has found new freedom after she bought a new @Tesla Model Y with FSD. She also uses Grok navigation. "Although she has always been a good driver, my mom can now drive without the fear or fatigue that can naturally come with age. No more relying on others for every trip. No more feeling stuck. This is true mobility that can spark new adventures in a still adventurous women!" (via Dan Doyle's Family Channel. Full video below)

@SpencerGuard I second everyone else in saying that this is by far the most comprehensive update on the state of Iran's operations so far. Thank you @SpencerGuard for this!

@kenyanmcduffie @braveboy4cex Another great endorsement by the Executive of the neighboring jurisdiction, @PrinceGeorgesMD. DC needs all the friends it can get right now! @kenyanmcduffie is the best person to move DC forward!

.@braveboy4cex thank you for your support! #WomenForKenyan

@maustermuhle @BrianneKNadeau This may be a good policy but I'm unsure about the safety aspect...

Of nerdy urbanist interest: Next week the D.C. Council will cast a first vote on @BrianneKNadeau's bill to allow for new D.C. buildings up to six stories tall to have only a single stairwell in them, instead of the current two. Proponents say it creates more residential space.

@kenyanmcduffie @FINKJM You are 100% right. I was there and witnessed this great response. A quality school should not depend on your zip code. @kenyanmcduffie is the best person for DC Mayor!

Families should have access to good schools right in their neighborhoods. As Mayor, I'll push to expand high-quality education in all eight wards to reduce overcrowding, ease stress on families, and give our kids the brightest possible futures.

@elonmusk This feature blows me away! My friend owns a Model Y, and during recent rush-hour traffic in downtown DC, the self-driving feature was amazing. Looking forward to the day when one can sit in the back and watch movies, chat on the phone, etc.

Try Tesla self-driving!

@kenyanmcduffie This was a great event. I witnessed @kenyanmcduffie on the stage and showing again as to why he is the best person for the office.

We need a leader of unity, not division. Thank you to the Ward 3 Democrats for hosting the Mayoral Candidate Forum and for providing me with the opportunity to share my vision for the future of DC.
