Statement from Gov Wes Moore, Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott and others in response to Trump's latest tirade against cities he doesn't like.
Noted: the programs Trump has cut to reduce crime.

Ok. I am far from the first person to go through this...
Took repeated (failed) attempts to get my question answered at SSA through the phone prompts. Then, was told hold time for a representative was at least 120 minutes.
Government efficiency?
A bad joke.

Here we go again.
Trump's attack on blue cities.
For the record, Baltimore has seen one of the most significant reductions in violent crime in the country.

The Gilded Age. Trump's dream.
When the wealthy went about their happy lives.
And the hell with everyone else.
No. A return to it should not be the goal. (Though it feels we are on the way there)

Trump's insecurity is quite evident.
Moving portraits of Obama and other presidents to less prominent places.
Just petty.

Most proven ways to prevent violent crime are investments in community violence intervention and youth resources. Things Trump has already severely
cut

It's the 60th anniversary of the Voting Rights Act.
Will it last?

Having covered the pandemic day after day, I am very familiar with the misinformation related to the Covid vacccine..which has only intensified during this administration

Trump administration is willing to potentially compromise national security to deflect and divert from the Epstein matter

Sobering prediction about the impact of Trump's trade policy (is it a policy? It seems so random)

Trump's term is consumed by vengeance with an occasional tariff sprinkled in to tax the American consumer

AI impact starting to be felt.
So where do new college graduates go?

3 of the stories on the Baltimore Banner app Thursday.
Incidents of hate, intolerance and harm

08.08.2025 01:29 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 4    ๐Ÿ” 1    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 1

This is encouraging..
Forced out by Trump but continuing the work so the public may benefit

Mamdani pushing back on Trump possibly meddling in the the New York Mayor's race---and potentially ignoring the voters' will.
It is an election.
Needs no interference.

I saw a Trump 2028 flag flying today on the flagpole of a home in NJ.
Appears his supporters truly believe he will run again.

Solar energy bailing out Texas on peak days.
But Trump is cutting billions in solar credits to make it harder for people to use it as an energy source.
Makes zero sense.

Trump now wants Americans to pay more for computers and electronics with a 100% tariff.
By contrast as article points out, Biden's
CHIPS and Science Act provided more than $50 billion to support new computer chip plants, fund research and train workers for the industry

06.08.2025 22:03 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 7    ๐Ÿ” 5    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Fact check on Trump's highly inflated view of himself. Which he repeats a lot.

06.08.2025 13:56 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 3    ๐Ÿ” 1    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

How to make America un-healthy--take away the protections vaccines have provided for millions.
Pointless self harm is right.

More evidence there is something in the Epstein files and materials some people don't want out.

More distraction from the Epstein matter from Bondi.
Go after Obama for baseless allegations.
The retaliation agenda.

Why have universities, media, companies not resisted Trump and instead accommodate him--
Their leaders mostly agree with him on anti-DEI and other progressive policies.
Good read.

Why does the Trump administration want to make it so difficult for people to come to the US?
Imposing steep and expensive barriers

Wouldn't a higher prioritity focus on commercial aviation? And better transit?

04.08.2025 23:53 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 49    ๐Ÿ” 12    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 5    ๐Ÿ“Œ 3

Does Trump have any idea what's going on with the cost of groceries?

This is a good point. About the Trump's strongest base.

The 27% drop in support among young people is striking.
And 2 out of 3 think the economy is not good. Despite Trump's constant spin.

When you're hungry, gotta eat. Even in the middle of the road.

Immigrants helped bring new life to Hamilton, Ohio
Then came the crackdown, aided by an anti-immigrant sheriff.
His payoff: The detention of people on immigration charges earns the jail more than $24000 per day in fees
