Keep in mind, the data center industry is challenging Prince William County in court over property tax assessments in SD-30 — costing PWC $500K more to litigate.
It’s almost like the whole “But think of the tax revenue! ®️” argument doesn’t always pan out when it comes time to pay out that revenue.

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges.

This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

Two parties running at different speeds.

Senate Dems are holding a press conference today to condemn the pardoning of J6ers. That was done a week ago.

Unclear if there is a presser today to go after the OMB's power play to take over all federal grant money.
