[Dave Van de Walle @Area224]

So Trump is President now, and he turned 80 a couple weeks ago.

Bush was President in the early aughts, and he turns 80 tomorrow.

THEN, Bill Clinton, who was president BEFORE Bush, will turn 80 in August.

The entire National Mall fireworks show in about a minute, seen from the webcam at the top of the Washington Monument starting with the B1 Lancer flyover.

[Physicians Grassroots Network @PhysGrassroots]

About 1% of practicing U.S. physicians have H-1B visas, and rural communities depend on them nearly twice as much as urban areas.

The AMA has urged exemptions, but uncertainty remains. Learn more in @axios from @mayagoldman_. https://t.co/tZHyySCXiB

Spectacular foliage this year

[Alex Taliadoros @AlexCTaliadoros]

The leaves in DC are showing off this weekend! 🍂

[PoPville @PoPville]

DC is currently a combination of 50% protestors, 25% brunching, 20% just doing their thing and 5% walking their dogs. These numbers will change.

[DC Police Union @DCPoliceUnion]

The reason the President is threatening to federalize DC is because radicals like @charlesallen, @BrianneKNadeau, & @CMLewisGeorgeW4 are unwilling to undo the horrible and idiotic “reform” legislation they championed in 2020. This situation could’ve been easily avoided.

Gracious concession

[Sen. John Barrasso @SenJohnBarrasso]

President Jimmy Carter personified the American spirit of always giving back & never giving up. From peanut farmer to president, he lived the American dream.

America mourns the loss of a dedicated public servant & a humble humanitarian. My prayers are with the Carter family.

[Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump]

I am very surprised that the Democrats, who fought a hard and valiant fight in the 2020 Presidential Election, raising a record amount of money, didn’t have lots of $’s left over. Now they are being squeezed by vendors and others. Whatever we can do to help them during this difficult period, I would strongly recommend we, as a Party and for the sake of desperately needed UNITY, do. We have a lot of money left over in that our biggest asset in the campaign was “Earned Media,” and that doesn’t cost very much. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

Setting the convention bounce stuff aside, there just hasn't been much positive state polling data entering the system for Harris lately.

[Tom Roussey @tomroussey7news]

Today the Union Station Redevelopment Corp. announced a big step forward for plans to expand & modernize the 117-year old train station. They say a one-year study that charts a path forward is finished. Some parts would radically change, historical parts would be preserved.

@admcrlsn Interesting forecasts…could be spot-on.

[Council of DC @councilofdc]

I’m sorry Virginia, but if DC is going to have to watch your incessant political ads, we’re going to need to take Arlington and Alexandria back
