Maryland Gov. Wes Moore is pushing back against President Donald Trump’s claims about crime in Baltimore and his suggestion that federal troops could be sent to the city, saying local partnerships are showing results and that he will not authorize the Maryland National Guard for policing.

The president made the threat on Truth Social amid the National Guard's deployment to D.C. in what Trump has described as an effort to fight crime.

President Donald Trump on Sunday threatened to send the military into Baltimore to “quickly clean up” crime. On Morning Joe, Gov. Wes Moore, D-Md., pushed back on Trump's threats, calling the remarks “blissfully ignorant" — and encouraged the president to come to Baltimore and 'come be educated'.
