Here's hoping former Ward 6 Councilmember Tommy Wells got what he wants for his birthday today: a wishable, cakeable DC.

(PS: Apologies for once again this year declaring February 27th an antiholiday--for totally unrelated reasons-- earlier today...)

Rue this day!

On this date in 1801, DC residents were stripped of their right to vote for members of Congress. (From 1790 to 1800, they voted for their prior MD/VA Reps/Senators.)

February 27 should be an antiholiday in DC #DCStatehood

Check out our brand new #HearingTheCouncil video interview with newly-appointed Councilmember Doni Crawford. Hear about her redemptive move to DC after a previous struggle, her pondering of parliamentary piercing protocols, & as always, dessert rankings!

A year ago yesterday, Roberta Flack died. Her DC ties are strong—she attended Howard University on a full piano scholarship, taught in DC Public Schools, & got her break playing 5 nights a week at Mr. Henry’s on Capitol Hill. The cover photo of her first album was also shot there
