.@BmoreCityDOT committed to closing the slip lane of this ramp as part of the 2018 Midtown Streetscape project and pursuing the rest of the ramp closure in subsequent years...and then simply didn't do it.

We were thrilled to stand alongside these neighbors resuming the fight.

@MaddiONeill @BaltimoreBanner Really great reporting. You understand the intricacies of the legal system often overlooked by other reporters.

A pair of drug distributors are liable for their role in Baltimore’s deadly opioid crisis and must pay more than $260 million in damages, a civil jury found Tuesday, delivering the city a crowning legal victory in a public nuisance lawsuit that first began six years ago. https://t.co/sEHrEOS2FX

Dear @POTUS

I implore you to commute everyone currently on Death Row to - at minimum - life without parole

In the current environment, with the current Supreme Court, they will all be executed soon after you leave office

Now is the time to prove you oppose the death penalty

Say hello to the Zoo’s newest animal ambassadors: Two HeroRATs from APOPO! 🐀 These southern giant pouched rats are experts in detecting land mines and tuberculosis, helping save lives. Keep an eye out for them on grounds, where they’ll be demonstrating their incredible skills!

“People have said, “Don’t cry” to other people for years and years, and all it has ever meant is “I’m too uncomfortable when you show your feelings: Don’t cry.” I’d rather have them say, “Go ahead and cry. I’m here to be with you.”

[Maddi O'Neill @MaddiONeill]

A note about this story dropping *today,* which I’ve been thinking about a lot: the legal system is broken and that’s true no matter who’s in charge. That’s not to say that elections don’t matter, but the work of showing people what really happens in court continues regardless.

Young Thug was encouraging law students to become defense lawyers and not prosecutors 😂 😂

Among the many disappointing outcomes of the night was California voting to keep slavery and involuntary servitude for incarcerated people in its state constitution.

That’s right — slavery, California, 2024.

If it’s going to be 80 degrees in November, I’m wearing white after Labor Day. Thoughts @dieworkwear ?

I know everyone is tired of the news, but I hope you'll take a few minutes to read my story in today's @baltbeat about how bail reform in Maryland actually led to HIGHER pretrial incarceration rates. 🧵 https://t.co/X5CVcXNBOo
