OK then turns it out it was just a matter of time after all…

Thanks to all who messaged us about the end of the “All-partisan bar, putting the ‘lit’ in ‘politics’ since 2024!” – Political Pattie’s.

Fox 5 reported last night:

“Political Pattie’s on 9th and U St. was only open 75 days. On Wednesday, they shut down for good.” (more…)

Anthony shares the photo above and asks: “Oh wow, it seems like Political Pattie’s may have already closed. Anyone confirm, PoPville?

DC Boy replies: “Someone on Reddit said it looks like they just changed their hours/days open. There’s nothing indicating they’re closed on their IG.”

Considering how viral that reddit post went on all other social media I’m surprised Political Pattie’s didn’t at least update their IG, that in and of itself, on top of everything else, doesn’t seem to bode well but what the hell do I know I’m here for the hawks…

STAY TUNED.
