Important to note (as this could get unfortunately political) that the City of DC itself is separate from the federal government that resides there. Don't want anyone thinking NRG is Trump's team or something similar.
I think cities sponsoring esports teams is a super interesting development. Very similar to the way physical sports currently work. I don't know how it would manifest further, especially given how often roster changes occur, but it'll be great to find out.

I think he's from the state of Washington over on the west coast.
