The gingerbread village at #TheRoost is really impressive. Clearly a lot of work went unto this, and the whole day of activities they have planned is great! @thehillishome.com

We’ve heard back from one of the board members of Joy of Motion Dance Center and will share correct information soon. Please note the original post has been removed.
An earlier post showing an email from JOMDC shared incorrect information despite having been sent through JOM communication channels. A board member to whom we reached out says, "the Board has been actively working to negotiate terms that would allow us to continue through the Fall Term and regroup, but this premature communication unfortunately negatively impacts those efforts. Our apologies for any confusion this may have caused to families but the info is not correct." More information coming soon.

After her Politics Hour appearance @janeese4dc.bsky.social tells me she's now up to 2,200 DC donors, blowing past records.

She got in a dig at the big-money donors surely gearing up to run ads against her too: "They've raked in a lot of dollars over the years from the maintaining of the status quo"
We're gonna be fundraising until we can meet what we feel is the need in our city to build a campaign to make it and reach our message to all eight wards and to really staff up a campaign where we can pay our campaign staffers well, the wages they deserve as well. And to also get our message out on TV and you know, newspaper and ads. We know that, you know, there's some people who are not so excited about my leadership, who are okay with the status quo. They've raked in a lot of dollars over the years from the maintaining of that status quo. And we know they're gonna invest some big dollars coming against us. So we're gonna meet their war chest with our war chest, except our war chest is a people-funded war chest

National Airport -- DC's official observation location -- picked up 0.3 inches of snow through 7 a.m. with steady snow continuing. It's the earliest accumulation in a season since 2018 and nearly three weeks early for first. Details as the event unfolds at cwg.live.

A reader writes: “Any insight into this strange tiny house on the Hill last night? Parked at North Carolina and 9th.” Anyone have any leads? It’s so cute!

At this point it’s tough to deny that Jeffries and Schumer are more scared of a democratically elected guy like Mamdani pushing the country a little bit left than they are of full on fascism.

Jeffries: "The border is secure. That's a good thing. It happened on his watch. He wants to claim credit for it, of course he'll get credit for that. In terms of making sure that we actually deal with the issues that matter, including on immigration, there's a lot that's left to be desired."

Sunny and chilly today, especially with gusts around 25 mph midday into afternoon. Light snow potential Friday remains best to our south, but we should see at least a little fall in the DC area. www.washingtonpost.com/weather/2025...
CWG Live: Colder air inbound for Friday along with light snow chance
The coldest air of the season so far is on the way. A little snow comes along for the ride.

This year's Capitol Christmas Tree looks kinda small compared to other years. Kinda like the Congress itself. #dc @thehillishome.com @popville.bsky.social @hillragdc.bsky.social
