On Sunday evening we lost our best friend, unparalleled colleague, and loving and loyal husband, son, and brother. Ilya Braverman touched so many lives and left a footprint on this earth that will never be filled. For me, his legacy will live on in the memories we shared. 1/3

A poll commissioned by Greater Greater Washington finds that Montgomery County Democratic voters support the county's plan for more housing by a margin of 67-27 percent.

(Note: GGW has expressed support for the plan.)

[Jonathan Robinson @jon_m_rob]

I'm in @marylandmatters on how it isn't your parents' housing politics anymore. Per @ggwash & @YouGov polling: voters want local&state gov't to do what @GovWesMoore & @jacobrday did & work together (42%) OR for the state to step in if locals don't take steps to lower costs (31%).

Under current law almost every single family home in Montgomery County could be torn down and replaced with a McMansion

Catch me on @NBCNews at 6pm, where I'll be talking about the Supreme Court's decision in Rahimi v. United States, and how this case impacts gun violence prevention methods like the Red Flag Law.

[Steve Descano @SteveDescano]

This is unmitigated horseshit.

@JasonMiyaresVA knows better than this & is lying to people about this prosecution’s legitimacy by misleading them on how state and federal prosecutions work.

It’s no secret I think Miyares is a joke, but even I’m stunned he would say this.

[Ben Shnider @bshnide]

Nah

[Governor Larry Hogan @GovLarryHogan]

I am running for the United States Senate – not to serve one party – but to stand up to both parties, fight for Maryland, and fix our nation's broken politics. It’s what I did as Maryland’s governor, and it’s exactly how I'll serve Maryland in the Senate. Let’s get back to work.

[Ben Shnider @bshnide]

We need more housing. I’m excited our guv is taking on this issue. & I’m hopeful the initial, very good, policy proposals he put forward will be built upon so that more homes get built across the state & life gets more affordable. @justupthepike @jon_m_rob

[Jonathan Robinson @jon_m_rob]

.@justupthepike, @bshnide, and I wrote a piece in @GovWesMoore's hometown paper about his (& @jacobrday's) expansive vision for MD's housing market. To deliver on that promise we suggest they think bigger & jumpstart home building for all across the state

Listen as my opponent @Nuttall4Fairfax admits that if Republicans pass a bill criminalizing abortion, he would enforce it.

I won't criminalize abortion and have been a national leader on pushing other prosecutors to make the same promise.

Ed Nuttall doesn't share our values.

@LarryMillerTV @wusa9 Fantastic hat. Fantastic.

[Ben Shnider @bshnide]

@_Goldwasser_ @AlonPinkas @Martin_Indyk @POTUS Still time for that too @_Goldwasser_

@samirpaul Also when did Panda Express go out the window as a date spot? Clearly I’ve been out of the scene

[Ben Shnider @bshnide]

Ellis not yet doing press but @TomJackmanWP & @AugensteinWTOP already fighting over exclusive breakout interview so get in line, folks.

[Ben Shnider @bshnide]

Not a lotta tweeting/socials in recent months cuz this guy is more important. Grateful to be back on leave for next couple months. Here’s to more dad adventures and to bosses who ‘get it’ (thx @SteveDescano.) And obviously @SherikaJoy_ is already the GOAT of the mom universe.

[Fairfax DA Steve Descano @FairfaxCountyCA]

If we want to ensure long-term safety, we have to hold those who represent a danger to our community pretrial, and let those who don't return home to their families and jobs while they await trial.

This office has striven, from day one, to be transparent and data-driven. We're extremely excited to finally share our data with the community.

"I think we're generally in the right place - but we're not perfect."

Our bond data dashboard is an important step to ensuring transparency in the Office of the Commonwealth's Attorney. There is still work to be done, but we're proud to say that we are on the right track.
