The wealth gap between members of Congress and their constituents is most glaring in Md's 6th District race, where two millionaires (billionaires?) from D.C. suburbs want to represent some of the poorest, rural parts of Western Maryland. By @WintrodeBrenda https://t.co/Agw9wJPwSE

"Looking at $220 parking and $22 cocktails, you would have never known this was the off-brand year for the Preakness.

Charging these prices for a fraction of the true race experience was a fitting send-off for the Stronach management tenure of Maryland’s race."

[Kyle Goon @kylegoon]

A Preakness with fewer than 5,000 spectators was a hollow experience, to say the least.

What if (and please, bear with me here) horse racing pushed *affordability* over exclusivity?

The chairman of the Prince George's County planning board is being accused of brazen self dealing. Why would someone who oversees local planning and zoning matters need a taxpayer funded $100K SUV, private driver, bodyguard, etc. By @jckhogan: https://t.co/CnwP4kCeih

NEW | After 2 years, the feds secured an indictment against the ship that knocked down the Key Bridge.

But handcuffing an employee half a world away and extracting potential fines from a foreign corporation could be an uphill battle.

Every morning for more than two decades, Nicole Sherry woke up and checked the weather.

On Wednesday, when she wakes up, Sherry will resist that urge. She knows the Orioles are in good hands.

"Cyber crime" doesn't begin to get at the impact. This story is disturbing but worth your time. By @Tim_Prudente

“I want people to care because otherwise he gets away with it."

Women at the University of Maryland Medical Center say pharmacist Matthew Bathula secretly accessed intimate photos, emails and camera feeds from their online accounts. https://t.co/d05pTbMcmV

[Tim Prudente @Tim_Prudente]

Women hospital workers at @UMMS in Baltimore got calls from @FBIBaltimore and learned someone had hacked their home cameras to spy on them. Or sifted through years of their photos and emails for sexual materials. A frightening story from our digital age: https://t.co/W6TOZ4Ajso

Some personal news: I’m very excited to join @bannerpgcounty at the end of this month and to work with this dope team of reporters!

[Justin Fenton @justin_fenton]

So thrilled for our whole @BaltimoreBanner team to be recognized by the Pulitzer Prizes for a *second year in a row* but especially @lizbowie who helped create this place and is the heart and soul of the Banner!

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

"No matter what we do, we just can’t shake the idea that everyone who lives here has somehow been murdered. I’m actually writing this from Heaven, which, you’ll be thrilled to know, has a 24/7 crab cake buffet and unlimited half-and-half." https://t.co/doJLwKZrvD
