What does the captioned phrase convey?
Good Monday morning from Washington, where the Redskins haven’t made the Super Bowl since the 1991 season, but where there’s always a home team on Capitol Hill. Leading the news: President Obama unveils his budget today. He is also talking about how a book of short stories by a Marine veteran has influenced his thinking on America’s wars.

A home team is a team that plays at that site. So in English football Manchester has two home teams (United and City)
Capitol Hill is the centre of the US government so there will always be a 'home team' there. (i.e. the current government.) |
