3rd post in the 160+ page thread got it right. Take a bow! |
Youngkin is an idiot
VA was so dumb to believe his gas lights and put him in office. He was asked to leave Carlyle group for a reason he's a criminal and bad at business. Teddy played him. Lucas beat his ass. No surprise here. Yay Caps games! |
But the city had already been planning to offer a half-billion dollars to them; Leonsis originally wanted $750 million. Not sure he played this as well as this post seems to be suggesting. |
Lucas, it now appears, wanted to kill the Alexandria arena plan to pressure Monumental into a Tysons casino deal with one of her cronies. Pay to play. Yuck. |
It seems that the clowns at JBG Smith and/or Youngkin’s office have found this thread. Welcome! |
She wanted marijuana markets legalized. Youngkin wasn't interested. https://www.marijuanamoment.net/top-virginia-senator-wants-legal-marijuana-sales-in-exchange-for-approving-sports-stadium-favored-by-governor/ |
Without a hint of irony you fail to recognize that the Youngkin-Leonis partnership was pure cronyism. What else do you call a stadium deal cooked up at a country club that leaves state taxpayers on the hook for billions? |
Why the hell is anyone still fighting to legalize marijuana? You look at SF, NY, and DC - the streets reek of pot smoke. It's so gross and makes me want to keep my kids aware from downtown DC. |
Lucas was caught playing small ball. |
People know want Younkin to run for Senator. He willl win by a lot |
Tell me you haven’t actually been downtown without telling me. |
No, it sounds like to me they have been into DC. It totally stinks. |
It seems that Lucas could have a second career as a DC Council member. |
At least we can thank Leonsis for reaching agreement with Bowser essentially to create a special police district - no drugs, amplified buskers, pop up vendors - near the arena. |
