D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser’s decision not to seek reelection is triggering what could be the biggest political shake-up in the District in decades.

A pro-business group is nudging Mayor Muriel Bowser into running for reelection. Why it matters: Will she, won't she? The push suggests Bowser's allies expect her to run for a fourth term, after earlier signs said the opposite.

Developers with political ties to Mayor Muriel E. Bowser are collecting millions of dollars more than housing finance experts say is normal for an affordable housing project, a Washington Post investigation found.

Two members of the National Guard were shot blocks from the White House on Wednesday afternoon and were critically wounded, according to President Donald Trump and federal law enforcement officials. The exact condition of the two troops was unknown as of Wednesday afternoon.
