Dream City is back
👋 Cuneyt here. This week, Tom and I discuss how D.C.’s elections are getting ugly.
With so many council members running for re-election or higher office, we consider whether the negativity will make it harder for lawmakers to get anything done at the Wilson Building this year.
We discuss fallout from Brooke Pinto’s opposition research gambit (some are calling it oppo-gate…), a potential youth curfew vote this week, and new questions around money, pressure, and campaign tactics in the mayor’s race.
That and more in this week’s episode… please drop us a like and subscribe on YouTube:
