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!

There is a conflicting report— per Stephanie Ramirez again:
Governor Patrick Morrisey @wvgovernor 9 .. We are now receiving conflicting reports about the condition of our two Guard members and will provide additional updates once we receive more complete information. Our prayers are with these brave service members, their families, and the entire Guard community.

Per Stephanie Ramirez on X, two of the three wounded National Guard have died.
Governor Patrick Morrisey Releases Statement Following Attack of Two Members of the West Virginia National Guard in D.C. "Denise and I are devastated by the news that two members of the West Virginia National Guard were shot earlier today in Washington, DC," said Governor Morrisey. "According to reports, both members did not survive. We are in direct contact with our Guard and other officials and are working to obtain the most accurate information as quickly as possible." "Our prayers are with these brave service members, their families, and the extraordinary men and women of our Guard who put themselves on the line every day. West Virginia stands united behind them. We will do everything in our power to support their families as they endure this unimaginable loss and will not rest until justice is served."

What do we think?
Cuneyt Dil @cuneytdil X.com Kenyan McDuffie is 100% running for D.C. mayor, those close to him say, now that Mayor Muriel Bowser won't seek re-election. A mayoral race is shaping up between McDuffie, more of a business-friendly candidate, vs. Janeese Lewis George, a democratic socialist.

The end of an era. Thoughts?
Mayor Muriel Bowser: It has been the honor of my life to be your Mayor. Together, we have built a legacy of success of which I am intensely proud. With a grateful heart, I am announcing that I will not seek a fourth term. For the next 12 months, let's run through the tape and keep winning for DC.

Y’all, just did cat yoga at Bright Bear Yoga at the corner of West Virginia and Florida and it was the most delightful thing I’ve done in a while. Recommend. (I just went on my own, was not invited, will do again.)
