We’ve got the latest on Councilmember Trayon White’s bribery trial. Also, D.C. City Council is back in session — we’ll take a look at what’s on their plate, and whether they can afford to pay for the meal at all. And what, exactly, is Washington Caps star and captain Alexander Ovechkin doing in a political ad for Russian President Vladimir Putin?Plus, in a members-only fourth segment, the Kennedy Center has voted — again — to close down for two years. If Trump can’t get his name on the building after all, could he be considering tearing it down? We’re joined by my City Cast colleague Ben Brasch, as well as The Washington Post’s Paul Schwartzman.Want some more DC news? Then make sure to sign up for our morning newsletter City Cast DC.
