| Was Youngkin ever really in contention to be the VP? It sounded like it was always going to be one of Vance, Rubio, or the North Dakota guy. If anything Rubio would be the one with the crying face meme! |
NP. Keep this same energy with a white politician |
I'm a constituent of hers and no she's not. |
Maybe you're trash too and don't even know it. |
Not beating those racism allegations. Sorry my existence makes you angry. |
Haha ha what a joke |

This misses DC government’s obligation to invest $500 million in improvements. So in effect, DC is buying the Arena for $600 million and in return receiving $37 million in rent over 25 years. Which at that time there will be no residual value in the building. |
WTF. Who’s getting a kickback from this sorry negotiation. |
It is disturbing to see the pattern of who the Republicans go after with vitriol. National politicians, local politicians, presidents of universities. They reserve their "nasty", "trash" and "disgusting" descriptors for women and people of color. Double for women who are people of color. I'm an old white guy from flyover America and this kind of talk is clearly a definitional element of the 21st century Republican party. |
Yes, that was the deal: The city was going to pour money into the building as a condition for keeping the team. That was, in fact, the city's ORIGINAL offer before Leonsis tried to move to Virginia, too. I think his whole dalliance with Youngkin wound up netting an extra $15 million in improvements over the offer he rejected. All in all, I suspect $600 million is less than the District would have had to spend remaking that area/would have lost in various tax revenues if the teams had all moved out of the city. |
