About this episode
2023 is off to a grim start on the crime front, most recently with the shooting of 13-year-old Karon Blake on Saturday morning. We cover that, the mayor’s new economic plan, and our dream versions of the Nats’ Racing Presidents mascots.
As always, our Friday News Roundups are powered by stellar local reporting:
Mitch Ryals of Washington City Paper has everything you need to know about the Karon Blake shooting.
Karina Elwood of the Washington Post breaks down Mayor Bowser’s five-year economic plan.
