Here’s a sampling. The Baltimore Banner thanks its sponsors. Become one.

Sen. Klobuchar addresses the targeted killing of a Minnesota lawmaker and her husband at their home, a shocking act of political violence.
I am heartbroken and horrified by the tragic loss of Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, who were taken from us in an act of violence. Melissa was a good friend and we started in politics at the same time and were always there for each other. She was a true public https://t.co/lTjZFpV3eA
