War & Peace
Happy Thursday! Thank you for subscribing to The Huddle. If you have not done so already, please subscribe to our YouTube page.
Reminder: we are hosting a State of The Union special on Tuesday, February 24th. Tune in 30 minutes before, as we break down what to expect and what we are watching for. Then, we will watch the speech together, and regroup afterwards for post-event coverage.
If you would like more of The Huddle, for $10 monthly or $100 annually, every Friday, after the show, subscribers will be invited to a private Zoom with one, two or three of us, to ask what’s on your mind and for you to get to know us and us to get to know you. Additionally, we will be rolling out more features soon. Go to www.TheDCHuddle.com to subscribe.
