I’ve seen Baltimore experience four homicides in a day - even the span of a few hours - countless times. April just saw 4 homicides for the entire month, a single-month, all-time low for the records we have going back to 1970. @alex_mann10 reports https://t.co/UxzAYdVJn6
Trump is a liar and a chaos agent. He’s never been anti-war or pro-public safety.
He’s choosing to cause violence in our city streets and across the globe, because he’s failing on his promises to bring down prices and invest in communities.
Only about himself, never about you.
Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott tells @Tonydokoupil the city is turning a corner, with murders at a nearly 50-year low and vacant buildings down 25% since 2019. “We are doing all of this together, because Baltimorians believe that we are the greatest comeback story in the country,” he said.
This was a cold-blooded execution committed by masked federal agents. There’s no excuse or lie from the Trump Admin that will make the reality of what we all watched go away.
The endless violations of human rights and basic decency playing out on our streets must end.
Baltimore will be ending the year with the lowest number of homicides in DECADES. We know that this work isn't finished yet. We have a long way to go. But this is real progress.
Violent crime is at historic lows in Baltimore and cities across the country under the leadership of mayors who have brought together partners from law enforcement, the legal system, and communities to reduce violence.
The president could learn a lot about leadership from them.
This is the latest effort by the president to distract from the issues he should be focused on—including the roller coaster of the US economy thanks to his policies.
When it comes to public safety in Baltimore, he should turn off the right-wing propaganda and look at the facts.
Baltimore ended the first half of 2022 with 179 homicides, the worst first half of a year on record (since 1970).
Baltimore just ended the first half of 2025 with 68 homicides, which is the fewest on record.
That’s a 62 percent drop from 2022-2025
Such a credit to hundreds of people across the public safety ecosystem, especially in community violence intervention work.
@MayorBMScott set the vision, stuck to the plan, and is seeing it through.
One life is too many, but this progress just continues to be so encouraging.
Through March, Baltimore has experienced 34 homicides - the fewest for the first 3 months on record in the city's modern history (since 1970).
Prior fewest: 39, in 1977 (city population then was 830,000). Previously saw 40 killings to start 2010, 41 in 2012 & 44 in 2014 & 2011
@jemillerbalt There is no “big secret.” We’ve discussed this approach with interested electeds and journalists.
The councilman is a party to the lawsuit. Every word he says publicly is subject to scrutiny by the court & his actions here endanger the lawsuit, which we’ve explained to him.
BIG NEWS: Whole Foods workers in Philly just voted 130 to 100 to unionize with the UFCW, per NLRB, becoming of the first of the Amazon-owned chain's 500+ locations to do so.
A family that votes together protects democracy together, protects women's rights together, protects civil rights together, and votes for women to make history together! Proud to cast our votes for @KamalaHarris, @AlsobrooksForMD, and some guy named Brandon Scott for Mayor.

Growing up, I learned to be generous toward my neighbors, compromise without compromising my values, and to work for the common good.
@KamalaHarris and I both believe in that common good – in that fundamental promise of America. We’re ready to fight for it. And like she says: when we fight, we win.
Now’s the time for us to rally around @KamalaHarris and defeat Donald Trump.
Black women have saved this country time and time again.
For that reason and a hundred others, there is no other — or better — option than the Vice President to unite our party and win in November.
