Curious why the D.C. government has Rivian pickup trucks. This model’s base MSRP is $70K.

@scorebook_bob Thank you Bob for being the voice of baseball for my children. As someone who grew up listening to Dave Niehaus with my father, I know that you will forever be part of their best baseball memories.

Thanks for your kind thoughts; I'll miss you as well!

@WashProbs I was a passenger on flights with Ian and he was a gem. Heartbreaking.

What an endearing video remembering Ian, one of the American Airlines’ flight attendants that lost his life in last night’s collision. He seemed like a sweet person.

@peterframpton The Crying Clown was a surprise to hear at The Warner. Great show!
English
Touring this year has been all about revisiting some tracks I haven’t played in a while—or ever!
Hope you enjoy this tidbit.
Have a good weekend!

Many thanks to @peterframpton and his extraordinary band for last night’s show at the Warner Theater. One timeless classic after another - among the best performances I have been privileged to witness.

Scoop: @charlesallen picks his predecessor @TommyWells to run campaign against the recall. Wells plans to file committee tomorrow. "This is a home rule issue," he tells me. axios.com/local/washingt…

@theHillisHome @TommyWells Such as the availability of assault weapons? IMO they should be restricted for military use. While we’re here, let’s not forget that Charles Allen’s Criminal Code Reforms reduced penalties for firearm violations.
English
@michaelgruber @TommyWells You don't think that the lone gunman who attacked the Burke School had more of an assist from Republican policies that have made it very easy for anyone to buy a gun?

Worth your time to read. The Republican donors to the re-call effort generally don’t support self governance for DC. Or anywhere really, lol 😂

@TommyWells @recallallen I am on that list as a Ward 6 father and Independent. I once voted for Allen. Considering your work to help vulnerable DC children, I would like to believe that you too are concerned about youth violence and recidivism. Join us!

@recallallen Just saw the donor list lol : Trumpers Gonna Trump

WOW, our grassroots movement to #recallcharlesallen continues to grow, with more than $70K raised from 523 supporters in just 3 weeks. More criminals, fewer police is a FAILED plan. We’re inspired by this momentum to make a difference & #saveDC! Join us: recallcharlesallen.com

It's almost as though the operators of this account think the tunnels should just be left as is for Hamas to use as intended.

#Gaza: Israel’s flooding of tunnels with saltwater could have severe adverse human rights impacts, some long term. Goods indispensable to civilian survival could also be at risk, as well as widespread, long-term & severe environmental damage. Civilians must be protected.

@tomsherwood We’ve felt the pain for years now as businesses have closed because of violence, theft, dwindling customers and more. When government works against entrepreneurs, they’ll leave the city. This week’s catastrophe is nothing new, just on a larger scale.

The disastrous 6-year tenure of @charlesallen as chair of @councilofdc's Judiciary Committee has culminated in an embarrassing spectacle that has brought DC national ridicule, harmed prospects for #DCStatehood & threatens to hurt national @DNC 2024 efforts to swing states. (1/16)

NEWS: The White House says @JoeBiden opposes the Republican disapproval resolutions that would overturn two D.C. bills.

@MattLaFortune Citing a need for a Safe Passage site is pathetic. The current crime crisis can be linked directly to our city councilman’s dangerous and successful drive to weaken law enforcement, weaken our criminal code, and chamipion early release for violent criminals. Pivot to enforcement.

Good morning, there are understandably some nerves and frustration as neighbors prepare to commute and take their kids to school this morning. I'll be outside the Potomac Ave. Metro at 8:30 if you are would like to discuss solutions or just want to vent for a few minutes.

If you could have one former DC establishment return to the city, which would it be?
