The Trump Administration Is Shutting Down a Gay Landmark Ahead of WorldPride Thanks to a quirk of local rules that puts the federal government in charge of city parks, Dupont Circle has been fenced off just as people around the world come to DC for pride.

I wrote about the decision to shut down Dupont Circle ahead of Pride — a sign of changing life in Trump-era DC (and the absurdity of Uncle Sam owning so much local land) politico.com/news/magazin...
