Not a city mayor. Her job is running the city and she’s failing at it.

Maybe she’s running a policy panel on how to encourage car theft and random acts of violence.

Yes, if you're Joe Biden (who is staying home to focus on other pressing issues). No, if you're Bowser. She needs to focus on crime, crime, crime and education in DC. Her foreign policy portfolio should be limited to ensuring reciprocity with MD and VA to collect DC parking tickets.

Can anyone tell me whether flying in a 747 halfway around the world for a trip lasting only a couple days is a good way or a bad way to fight climate change?

The bigger issue are her decisions that undercut helping to deal with the climate crisis, particularly in transportation.


Nothing says "I care about climate change" like taking a business class junket to Dubai.

Shouldn't Bowser stay home and focus on addressing the impact of her misguided "Crime for all" policies?

Don’t complain if you continue to elect these fools.

Why does she need to go to Dubai for a climate conference? Is it designed for for American cities' mayors?
