THEY WANT TO PUT A BIG ROLL OF MASKING TAPE OVER MY MOUTH, says @KellyannePolls. 711,571 Washingtonians know a little bit about that: 51,000 federal jurors | 15,000 active duty military members | 1 nonvoting delegate to Congress | 2 unseated senators | 1 unseated rep #DCstatehood

I just received some unfortunate news… JENEFER ELLINGSTON, the grandmother of the DC Green Party, passed away in her sleep last Sunday. Jenefer lived to a ripe, old age of 95 and shared many great stories about her adventures around the world. I already miss her! @DCStatehoodGP

#TodayInHistory: Three commissioners overseeing the capital's construction in 1791 named the city in honor of the first #PotUS. The federal district was named "Columbia" which was a poetic name for the United States commonly in use at that time. @Wikipedia #controversy #FreeDCnow

The great "Seal of the District of Columbia" was approved on August 31, 1871. Lady Justice is holding the #USConstitution which contains the (dreadful) #DistrictClause (Article I, Section 8, Clause 17). #JustitiaOmnibus #JusticeForAll #DCstatehood #EnclaveSlave #FreeDC #FreeDCnow

Today is the 6⃣0⃣th anniversary of the HOME RULE DAY RALLY in DC on July 17, 1966 – where organizations that supported women’s suffrage and those who supported #DCHomeRule came together to protest our lack of budgetary, judicial & legislative autonomy. #TheLastColony #DCstatehood

Happy 2⃣3⃣8⃣th #StatehoodDay to the Commonwealth of Virginia virginia.gov – 10th to be admitted to the Union on June 25, 1788. 🇺🇸 #ThirteenColonies #StatehoodAnniversary #CommonwealthAnniversary #ColonyOfVirginia #OldDominion #MotherOfPresidents #DCstatehood #FreeDCnow
Virginia officially entered the Union on June 25, 1788, becoming the 10th state to ratify the U.S. Constitution. The timeline of Virginia joining the United States: Declaration of Independence (1776): Began the process of forming a new nation when the colonies declared independence from Great Britain. Ratification (1788): Took roughly 12 years from declaring independence until Virginia officially voted to ratify the Constitution. Readmission (1870): Following the American Civil War, Virginia seceded in 1861 and was readmitted back into the United States on January 26, 1870.
