He doesn't provide anything but opinions. That specific one came from CNBC this morning. There were a lot listed I just put a few in as I begin to read this tomb. I guess he did not comprehend the part where I said they were not verified. Par for the course.  LOL

Um, there was no money for a football stadium in the CR bill.

Rather, the CR called for the land under which the current RFK stadium is built be transferred from federal government ownership to D.C. local government control. Shifting ownership to local D.C. control would allow a new stadium to be built in its place under local redevelopment laws.

So, the better question is this: why was the football stadium on federal government property in the first place?

For the record, RFK stadium hasn't been used since 2019 and is scheduled for demolition. The Commanders - the Washington, D.C. football team - don't play there (they play at FedEx Field in Maryland).

The land deal to D.C. was to bring the team back into D.C. proper.

Amazing how easily you are conned Mr "Independent" voter.
