This is becoming a very unfortunate game of tic-tac-toe… More artists are bailing on the concert for the “Great American State Fair” because they don’t like the political connections to President Trump. 5 of the 9 headliners have cancelled. More to come on @7NewsDC

IT'S THEIR WORLD, THEY JUST ALLOW US TO LIVE IN IT: For almost 12 hours, a car carrier was parked in the middle of Army Navy Drive, blocking part of turn lanes in each direction. It appears the driver slept in his rig overnight and began off-loading the cars toward the end of this morning's rush hour. Of course, there was plenty of room to park on the closed Fashion Centre Mall property where the cars are being delivered. I guess that would make too much sense. Crazy stuff. #arlingtonva #pentagoncity #pentagon #trucks @ArlingtonVaPD @ARLnowDOTcom @Susan4Arlington @maureencoffeyva @TakisKarantonis @Matt4Arlington @Avis @Budget @FashionCtrPC @SimonPropertyGp @ArlingtonDES @ArlingtonVA @JulieCareyNBC @matthewyoung31 @AdamTuss @charlienbc @tomroussey7news

JUST IN: An Austrian court on Thursday convicted a man of planning to attack a Taylor Swift concert in Vienna nearly two years ago. He was sentenced to 15 years in prison.

COST OF IRAN WAR??? 20 Democrat Senators including Tim Kaine don't believe they're getting true numbers from the Trump administration on the cost to taxpayers. They are now urging the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office to determine the true cost of war in Iran and "set the record straight." According to AI analysis: The Pentagon’s official operational cost estimate for the war in Iran is $29 billion. However, independent analysts and economists project the true long-term price tag is much higher, estimating between $50 billion and $1 trillion when factoring in massive munitions replacement, base repairs, and broader economic fallout. @SenTimKaine

NEW: PROPOSAL TO BAN PERMANENT FENCING AT SUPREME COURT Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton (D-DC) today introduced a bill to prohibit permanent fencing from being installed on the grounds of the Supreme Court. Temporary anti-climb fencing was installed in May of 2022 when the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health decision overturning Roe v. Wade was leaked and remained in place for approximately four months. "Public property should be open to the public," Norton said. "The distance between government and the people has grown, with trust in government, including the Supreme Court, low. We should not entrench that distance further by placing intimidating barriers between ourselves as public servants and the people we serve. Permanent fencing would send an un-American message to the nation and the world by transforming our democracy from one that is accessible and of the people to one that is exclusive and fearful of its own citizens." "There are more effective, less obtrusive security solutions than archaic fencing. Moreover, the Supreme Court is in a residential neighborhood, and its grounds are widely used by both D.C. residents and visitors," she added. Though she admits, she is unaware of any plans to put up permanent fencing, at the moment.
