Reply to comment by North-Cauliflower441 in Mexican flags on 14th street by esibaja
You know there's more to Latin heritage than Mexico, right? Which is why they previously had flags from all over Latin American up and down 14th until a few weeks ago.

Reply to Things to do on thanksgiving by ActuaryPersonal2378
I never go home for Thanksgiving because I'll see all them in a month anyway. I'm going to watch the Brazil match on Thursday from one of the bars near Dupont Circle.

Reply to Tired of Drivers by MedicalSpecializer
Amen. I have lived here 14 years and feel the same as you. Drivers behave with impunity in DC and they know it. They know they will suffer zero consequences for their behavior if they hit and kill you, are sober, and say the magic words like "I didn't see him or her," or "the sun was in my eyes. It's completely outrageous.

Looks beautiful. Maybe it'll get the whiny suburbanites to quit complaining about the place for five seconds.

Politics makes strange bedfellows. Just like how all these Fortune 100 companies promised to stop giving money to 1/6ers but then quietly resumed them. It's politics...and hypocrisy. What makes Washington go round.

This works. Thanks for providing links. I especially loathe the anti-semitic, racist, pedestrian hating Trayon White, so this looks doubly bad for JLG.

While I love sticking it to drivers, the blatant dishonesty (at best) or lying about having speed cameras at the entrance from 395 really hurt popular support for speed cameras. And as we have learned since 2016, conspiracy theories thrive in the absence of truth. The city should remove the camera at 395 and simply add more on city streets.

I wonder why the Post doesn't bother writing any stories about how dangerous DC streets are to pedestrians and how both the police and the politicians DGAF in the least. Politicians like Janeese Lewis George talk a good game but then the next day they're making it easier for dangerous DC drivers to renew their drivers licenses for "equity" reasons.
It's disgusting and I vote against every politician who caters to drivers.
