Seriously - what a joke!

She will do nothing to address any of D.C.’s problems, just like she has ignored D.C. (and the border crisis) for the last 3.5 years.

Yawn and whine.

They charge like $10 for a small fro-yo or ice slushie. Total con artists.

Con artists? Really. Sounds more like supply and demand.

The need to setup a regulatory structure for the trucks - code of conduct, permitting, food safety, truck safety regs (fyi - food trucks catch on fire A LOT), etc.

The problem is that NPS actually has food service installations on the mall (run by a contractor) and they give concessioner a monopoly on food sales. So the Feds can't actually set up a regulatory system for the food trucks.

It's maddening.

ummmmm -- all those trucks are regulated by DC. Also you cannot limit VA and MD trucks from getting permits.

soooo they are supposed to be regulated by DC, but most are not these days.

They have not been inspected by DC Health, DC Fire, or DLCP. There is no enforcement. Contact Director Tiffany Crowe at DLCP and tell her you are sick of the food trucks blocking commuter traffic, pedestrian crossings, and dumping their grease and oil into the city sewers. Where do the drivers go to the bathroom? In the truck. DCRA busted a driver a few years back who was using Dupont Circle water for cooking hot dogs. The horror stories are myriad.

Why TF would the VPOTUS be managing the food truck scene in DC?

You are ridiculous.

There is no problem with the border. It all fake propaganda for Trump. Remember the caravan of people that were going to storm the border under Trump?

average DCUMer poster, disconnected from reality

Ask any Capitol Police or MPD officer what a dumpster fire January 6th was under Trump.

The food trucks are awful I agree. I don't want to here that annoying ice-cream chime over and over as I still the mall. Also they are gross and so expensive.

The food trucks have been there forever, OP. Nothing new. If anything, there are a few better options now.
