Sounds like the perfect time to jam a new NFL stadium at RFK down the throats of DC taxpayers.

Sincerely,
Muriel Bowser


It will bring new jobs that could employ all those federal workers! Imagine all the TPS reports you need on a project that big.

Loved DC until the pathetic response to the crime wave of 2021-2023.

No problem. We'll just put in more revenue, er, speed cameras.


But there will be no MD or VA drivers to fleece. Rich DC residents ride bikes. Poor DC residents don't get charged the full fee. Womp womp.


Lots of poor D.C. residents ride bikes, too, but apparently cooks and busboys commuting to work are invisible to you.


Most poor ride the bus or take Metro. They are not the ones in cycling suits on the bike lanes.

It's going to be worse than that once the Medicaid cuts get enacted.

A lot of the Mayor and Council's pet projects are going to have to be cut. Hope they are up for it.
