Commanders Stadium Deal Exposes DC Political Fault Lines
About this episode
When Ben interviewed President Trump in the Oval Office in February he asked if there was ever going to be a way to get the Washington Commanders back in D.C.?
This week, DC Mayor Muriel Bowser announced an agreement with the team, bringing the franchise back to the nation's capital. The move to the site of the old RFK stadium is not without controversy - receiving pushback from progressives.
Ben discusses the political and cultural significance of this deal and explains how the project can revitalize the neglected area.
