In 2018 the city of Baltimore was given $16 billion in federal grants under the Trump administration. The city is in really bad shape. Does anyone know where the money went? Does Rep. Elijah Cummings know where this money went?
Here are some tweets documenting what type of mess the Democrats in Baltimore are facing.
OK I misheard. It wasn't $18 billion over 2 1/2 years...the HUD Director said it was $16 billion **IN 2018 ALONE!
The fed. gov't pumped SIXTEEN BILLION DOLLARS into Cumming's district in 2018.
WHERE DID THE MONEY GO?!

Baltimore's Democratic Mayor Catherine Pugh's homes were raiders.
SEVEN locations were raided, all having to do with Pugh or her top aides.
1) Pugh's 'main' home
2) Pugh's 2nd home
3) Offices at City Hall
4) Pugh's *lawyers office*
5) Maryland Ctr For Adult Training
6) Gary Brown's apt
7) Keith Timmons home— Brian Cates (@drawandstrike) July 30, 2019
Allegedly she made money from a book. This caused a scandal and ultimately led to her resigning.
Was this a payoff disguised as a book deal?

President Trump got this investigation started by pointing out that there have been billions of dollars pumped into Baltimore with no results coming from it. He also called out Rep. Elijah Cummings.
And it was only MONDAY.

Perhaps all of this money was spent on plywood. There are a lot of boarded up windows in Baltimore and someone had to pay for all of that plywood.
It's no secret that Baltimore is in bad shape. Yet the left accuses President Trump of being racist when he calls out how bad it is. Even far left Bernie Sanders has compared Baltimore to a third world country.
President Trump is doing a masterful job of bringing attention to the bad areas in this country. Hopefully this will motivate Baltimore to band together and improve the area and positive will come from this nasty exchange.
