Great look at Will Lewis and the “legacy of ashes” he leaves behind at The Washington Post.

Here's a piece I wrote for Washingtonian celebrating 60 years. I can't believe 47 of them have been with my family and 19 of them with me. I am so proud of our team and our mission to help Washingtonians. @washingtonian https://t.co/YQ8emmslns

Reporting live from Chicago, there’s no “hellscape” I’d rather be in.

Do not miss the opportunity to see the play American Five at Ford’s Theatre. The story of MLK & his four friends as they draft his seminal I Have a Dream speech. It was SPECTACULAR. Amusing, intriguing, a superb history lesson and heartwarming. I loved it. @FordsTheatreNPS

Well said @TomMarquardt. I am still shaken by this: https://t.co/gpV9OWzXGn

BREAKING: Dallas, deep red, oil-soaked, and MAGA-aligned is now flooded with anti-Trump protesters. A city once thought untouchable has joined the rebellion. The tide is turning.

What should I watch tonight?

So long, SmarTrip cards. Starting today, you can tap in and out of the DC Metro system using a credit card at all 98 Metrorail stations.

It’s pretty insane that DOGE is already voluntarily lowering its guidance by -97% and it’s not even Easter yet.

One of the biggest failures in political history.

And it was *so* obvious both ex ante and ex post.

The signs were incredible…

[Washingtonian 🌸 @washingtonian]

Scenes from today’s “Hands Off!” protest in DC.

Tens of thousands rallied on the National Mall to vent frustration at Trump and Musk. The signs railed against kings and fascists and warned against the erosion of democracy. https://t.co/e245xPOkUR

[Merrill Williams @merrillwilliams]

Check out these signs…

"Hands Off!" hopes to build on smaller demonstrations that have taken place as the Trump administration has slashed the federal government.

The DC march is scheduled to take place on the Washington Monument grounds at 1 PM on April 5.
