Among the worst are attempts to have racks perform double duty as public space art.

I’ve reached the point that every Republican politician is complicit and every Republican voter supportive.

The only honorable thing now is to leave the party.

Just walked by 400 K St NW and it is buried.

Incompetency only matters when there’s accountability.

I saw 3 different groups on my walk to the grocery store. They must be really bored walking around all day doing nothing.

I wish they’d invent a camera that could ticket drivers who, while turning, bull their way through crosswalks occupied by pedestrians.

To clarify, this was alleged by some of the Watergate investigators that secret testimony was getting back to Nixon.

There were members in Congress secretly reporting the progress of the investigation back to the Whitehouse as well as obstructing it as best they could. That all came to a head when the tapes were released and defending Nixon was no longer viable.

Imagine if other countries reciprocated. It would be the end of travel.

I have a constant struggle with my grocery store where sale items are charged full price at check out.

Quite a few cars also bear obscured or special plate covers to thwart automatic cameras.

I believe shooting them in the legs was his fallback suggestion when told he couldn’t outright just shoot them.

According to Wikipedia it was 34 years old. Since the crash they have inspected other MD-11s and found stress cracks on their engine pylons as well.

I’d like something all along Mass between Union Station and Mount Vernon Square. I see a lot of cyclists trying to mix in either the heavy traffic and, too, I experience a lot of cyclists bailing out onto the sidewalks.

This is a recently remodeled building housing the Georgetown Graduate School. It used to be the HQ for Douglas Development.

Clueless on the bike lane unless the renovation itself required it. It’s a bike lane to nowhere. Both H St and Mass are arterial β€œstroads” and not bike/ped friendly.

Also, it helps light the interior of the plane as people begin to deplane and have to grab their things.

In case an emergency evacuation is needed cabin crew need to be able to look out to see if it safe to exit that side of the plane.

Yes, it’s the staging area for the construction. 3 years!!!.

I believe so, yes. Trump has openly said he wants her removed before the next interest rate vote.

Yeah, could all be additive. I know lemons just jumped from 59Β’ to 89Β’ at my store.

Poor cocoa crop harvests in West Africa, not tariffs, probably to blame here,

Traffic lights are timed for cars almost exclusively. There might be an odd intersection or two where the engineers have, curmudgeonly, added a few extra seconds for pedestrians. But for cyclists? NADA.

Though I suppose the couple of lights with bike symbols count for something.

Holding political office has,very much, become a family and friends enterprise. You see one senator, behind that I see a network of staffing, political appointments, NGO positions, and cushy lobbying jobs that get filled.
