The people on my mind today: Josephine Butler, Walter Fauntroy, Hilda Mason, Julius Hobson, and the many other trailblazers of the statehood movement. May they rest in power. #DCstatehood #DCStatehoodNow

@AlexKomaDC Just listened to a segment of yours on the radio this morning (re: overtime spending at DC public safety agencies)! Will miss hearing you there but excited to see what’s next. 🙏🏼

A little news about me: I'm leaving WAMU this week. It's been a great year+ here learning the ropes on the radio, and it is bittersweet to leave a newsroom full of talented colleagues.
But don't fret, I'm not leaving local DC journalism! More on what's next for me very soon.

@chenderson Oooook this is SO cool 😩 I would support said campaign!!

Snippets from my first @WNBA All-Star Weekend! 🧡
Bucket list experience ✅
It’s more than just a game — the panels, activations, the social gatherings 😏. The vibes were so so good. Starting a campaign for DC to host ASW in 2028!
Before that we need an @Unrivaledwbb stop! 👀

Now @DoorDash is doubling down on its assault on Home Rule and promising to "continue" its efforts. Delete the app, DC! ❌❌❌
Martin Austermuhle@maustermuhle
In a statement, DoorDash tells me that the council passed the "arbitrary" new fee without holding any hearings. "We have always supported home rule for D.C.," says the company. "But will continue to defend D.C.'s small businesses, local economy, and underserved residents."

Very touched by @AlexiSargeant crowdsourcing a sheaf of book recommendations from friends for my birthday
(And amused by the friend who wrote “Trying to think of a book recommendation for you is like trying to think of a new political tactic for Nancy Pelosi”)

@CharFor5D06 Thank you for your service! Will miss your exemplary leadership in this role.
English
After much reflection, I’ve made the decision not to seek another term as ANC 5D06 Commissioner.
Serving this community has been an honor ❤️
I’ll continue serving through the end of my term and you can still reach me with any concerns, issues, or ideas that you have.

@LeahLibresco Also trying to get home safely after a long trip abroad. 🙏🏼 Exchanging travel prayers now!

Verso l’alto!
(I’m also stuck on Amtrak on an indefinite hold so feel free to send me prayer requests and I’ll pray for you)

Today is St. Pier Giorgio Frassati's first feast day since he was canonized a saint! He died on this day 101 years ago at the age of 24. Happy Feast Day, St. Pier Giorgio!

Since this most recent drop of votes, @Janeese4DC has officially surpassed Mayor Bowser’s vote total for ANY of her primary races (2022, 2018, 2014). As of now, this is the highest total turnout (raw votes) of any mayoral primary since 2010.

@amanduhgomez I hope you take some time to rest after all your incredible work, Amanda! Well done 💜

“Janeese Lewis George’s mayoral campaign was unlike any the nation’s capital had seen.”

@jennygathright Can’t wait to see what’s next! So glad you’ll still be covering local. 🙏🏼

My last byline for The Washington Post. Some time off, then back to local DC coverage at a new place. I will always be grateful to The Post for taking a chance on me and helping me grow. Please support my colleagues who are still there, doing great work

@nathanlukeylu @NorthEastGroove I’ve been wondering how the vote breaks down between seniors in the large, dense senior complexes in Fort Lincoln, folks in the single family detached homes, townhomes, and The Jamison.
English
I’m sorry but I’m just still fascinating how the only part of Ward 5 McDuffie won was Ft Lincoln and Southern Woodridge.
Sage Of Time🇵🇷@SageOfTime1
It appears that DSA endorsee & Ward 4 councilwoman Janeese Lewis George has won the DC Dem mayoral primary commandingly over former DC Councilmember (for ward 5 & later At large) and Chair pro tempore Kenyan McDuffie.
English
@NorthEastGroove That's where some of his key campaign staff live along with a few District agency leads who I saw canvassing those areas for him more than once.

Some analysis below of just how decisive the Lewis George win was
Ence Morse@ccemorse
JLG won basically every kind of precinct in DC on her way to the Democratic nomination. Plurality Black? +18 Plurality White? +15 Richest (>$150K)? +9. Poorest (<$50k)? +15. Youngest? +30 She only really struggled in DC's oldest precincts, in NW and parts of NE DC.

here is Mamdani's entire speech at the Knicks parade, which is easily the best speech I've ever heard at an event of this sort
English
It matters less now that a winner has been declared but for what it’s worth: JLG’s lead continues to inch up with every new batch.

NEWS: @kenyanmcduffie is conceding to @Janeese4DC in the D.C. mayoral primary election. He was down 16 points on Tuesday night with ballots left to count, but it seemed increasingly unlikely that he would close that gap.
