Logan Circle

dope.

Some of the sites, Anacostia, DuPont Circle, Logan Circle, Penn Avenue East, the Palisades, Shaw Road, Island Avenue.

Upper Bladensburg, Upper Georgia Ave, Van Ness, Uptown, Union Station, The Parks, U Street, Congress Heights, Deanwood, everywhere.

Foggy Bottom, Chevy Chase, Minnesota Ave. Yeah, I mean, but yeah, I'll be at the block party at MLK.

I have some questions about the other ways they're paying for it.

But even beside that, the reality of like what he's doing here is, for example, on Logan Circle.

So if you go by Logan Circle now, this is like Rhode Island and right before it was like Rhode Island and 13th.

If you go over there, there's you can walk through the park like the walkways are open, but there's it's just boarded up everywhere else.

You can't go on the grass because they're trying to let the grass grow.

It's like, dude, here's what's going to happen.

You're eventually going to take these things up.

people are going to start using it again it's going to trample on the grass it's going to be back to the state that it was before and trump is not going to want to put yet more money back into it to maintain it which is what all the other administrations democrat and republican all realize which is that yes there are some level of maintenance you obviously have to provide for these things but trying to turn it into a golf course and that level of investment in it it's not going to work you're not going to have the stamina to do this all the time and so it's just like it's like okay i'm glad that the the grass at logan circles being getting a chance to look nice for however long it's gonna last it's not gonna it's not gonna they're gonna that area is famous it's like one of the most areas famous for picnicking in the city particularly on saturdays and sundays it's famous for it and people put up slack lines and all kinds of that's what they do there like dude they're gonna trample on that again he's not going to want to go back out there and it just creates a problem this is the kind of i'm talking about like you want a maintained park but what he's trying to do causes put you have to put up scaffolding everywhere blocking off access everywhere for gains that are going to last six months stupid

President Trump declared a crime emergency, speaking of national emergencies, in the District of Columbia, sent in the National Guard very much over the objections of the city's mayor and city council and many residents of the city, who pointed out that crime was actually falling before he showed up.

People may remember this was spurred by an incident where a young staffer was maybe sort of not exactly carjacked at like 3 a.m. in Logan Circle, which like, But let's leave that aside.

So this month, amongst celebrating the year-long anniversary of something that was 50-30 days, we learned that the deployment isn't only just still running, it's actually written to a plan to continue through the end of the second term, which, awesome.

And it's kind of unclear exactly what anyone is meant to be getting out of it.

I moved from DC to Tampa in 2016.

In DC, we lived in Logan Circle downtown.

My office was in Chevy Chase, Maryland.

It's like five miles away.

Yeah, I think he's got kids.

Unlike Derek from Logan Circle, who I know is dead.

Yeah, I'll go with that, too, because he would have called.

He would have called.
