President Donald Trump on Sunday threatened to dispatch National Guard troops to Baltimore, calling the city “out of control” and broadening a federal law-and-order campaign that has already put thousands of soldiers on the streets of Washington, D.C. The warning followed an invitation from Maryland Governor Wes Moore, who asked Trump to walk Baltimore’s neighborhoods with him to discuss public safety. Moore, a Democrat, pointed to city figures showing 200 homicides last year—down 24 percent from 2023 and 42 percent from 2021—while overall violent crime fell 8 percent and property crime 20 percent between 2023 and 2024. Trump rejected the offer, accused Moore of obscuring crime data and said he might “rethink” federal money earmarked for rebuilding the Francis Scott Key Bridge, destroyed in a 2024 shipping accident. The president also questioned whether Moore had improperly claimed a Bronze Star medal, which Army officials belatedly awarded the governor in 2024 after a paperwork error. Baltimore is the latest Democratic-run city Trump has singled out for potential military intervention. Earlier in August he federalized the capital’s police force and deployed more than 2,000 Guard members who began carrying weapons on Sunday. He has said Chicago will likely be “next,” then New York—a plan Democratic governors and mayors vow to contest in court.
