Jean Marbella of The Baltimore Sun discusses the Angelos family squabble and future of newspapers with Nestor

It took a few days, and even now, there are some results in the primary election of July 19th outstanding, and races that haven't been called. The deadline for jurisdictions to report their results is Friday, but historically, that deadline has been somewhat malleable. In the Republican primary for Anne Arundel County Executive, Jessica Haire has a lead over Herb McMillan of about 1,000 votes. In the Democratic primary for Baltimore County States Attorney, incumbent Scott Shellenberger is still ahead of progressive candidate Robbie Leonard by about 2,000 votes, with about 11,000 votes left to count as of yesterday morning. The races in primaries to determine the candidates who will oppose 7 of the 8 incumbent Congressmen in the MD delegation have all been called. In the fourth district, Democratic Congressman Anthony Brown did not seek re-election. He has been nominated in the race for Attorney General. The other 6 Democratic incumbents all cruised to easy victories. The lone Republican in the delegation, Andy Harris, ran unopposed. Joining Tom now is Jean Marbella, an investigative and enterprise reporter for the Baltimore Sun.  She joined the paper in 1987, so she's seen an election or two. Jean Marbella joins us on Zoom…See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Baltimore Sun's Jean Marbella joined Sports with Coleman and discussed the Anglelos family dispute, could the Orioles potentially move?, and Mrs. Angelos' statement.

The status of the 2020 national election is inconclusive, but we can conclude that the country remains sharply divided over the best way to navigate the serious challenges that lie ahead for America. In the early morning hours today, Joe Biden encouraged his supporters to “keep the faith,” predicting confidently that he will prevail when all of the votes are counted. Soon thereafter, President Trump addressed his supporters in the White House, asserting that the election was a “fraud on the American public,” and “an embarrassment to our country...We were getting ready to win this election,” he said. “Frankly, we did win this election.” It is a predictable playbook for Mr. Trump that he presaged over the past several months, using his rallies to prepare the soil to plant the seed of distrust in the electoral process... Regardless of which candidate ultimately prevails, he will inherit a country that is sicker than it was just weeks ago, in ways both physical and psychological. If Mr. Trump wins, the country will be faced with a moment of reckoning unlike any other moment in our history. If Biden prevails, his efforts to unify the nation will face fervid opposition. There were no surprises in local contests. All the incumbent members of the Congressional delegation won re-election easily. Voters strongly repudiated a well-funded campaign in the 7th district by Kimberly Klacik, choosing incumbent Kweisi Mfume by a margin of 45 points. And, as Jean Marbella noted in the Baltimore Sun, “as two Septuagenarians battled for the White House, Baltimore sent its youngest Mayor ever to City Hall.” Baltimore City Council President Brandon Scott is our Mayor elect. Two other young politicians, Nick Mosby and Bill Henry, will join Scott in a troika that represents a complete overhaul of city-wide leadership. We’re going to talk about last night and the road forward with two keen political observers. Later this hour, Tom is joined by Farai Chideya, a multimedia journalist, author, broadcaster and scholar. She's also the creator and host of the new show, Our Body Politic, which airs Tuesday nights at 9 here on WYPR. But we begin with Jayne Miller, the chief investigative reporter with the 11 Investigates I-Team at Baltimore's WBAL-TV.

Yesterday afternoon, in a one paragraph letter addressed to now Mayor Jack Young, former Mayor Catherine Pugh resigned from office. Her lawyer read a brief statement and took no questions in a press conference that lasted less than two minutes. The investigation into Catherine Pugh’s possible malfeasance in office has reportedly been going on for a while, and it is likely to last for the foreseeable future. Jean Marbella of the Baltimore Sun joins us to talk about what’s happened and what’s next for our City.But first, Tom speaks with Washington Post State House reporter Ovetta Wiggins about the historic election of Baltimore County Delegate Adrienne Jones as the first African American and the first woman Speaker of the House.

It's the Midday Newswrap.This week, after reports of explosive devices mailed to prominent Democrats and critics of President Trump put the nation on edge, Mr. Trump called for national unity. But his call was short-lived. Just after 3:00 this morning, he tweeted more barbs at the media. Meanwhile, Saudi officials were giving shifting explanations for the death of journalist Jamal Khashoggi in their Turkish consulate. CIA director Gina Haspel traveled to Turkey to investigate, and then briefed President Trump on what she learned. Tom sorts through this week's extraordinary news with Associated Press national politics reporter Ken Thomas , who joins us on the line from Washington, DC.Then, Tom turns to the week's local news. There were media rumors -- false ones, it turns out -- that Baltimore Mayor Catherine Pugh had hired a new police commissioner for Baltimore City. Critics of the Mayor complain that the hiring process for the new chief isn’t transparent enough. And early voting is underway in MD and around the country. Polls had long lines yesterday. Does this indicate heightened interest in this year’s mid terms? Baltimore Sun investigative reporter Jean Marbella joins Tom in the studio to discuss the week's local developments.

On this edition of the Midday News Wrap: pressure continues to mount on the White House this week with a conviction and a guilty plea in the cases of two of President Trump's associates, and an increasingly contentious relationship between Trump and his Attorney General, Jeff Sessions. Guest Host Nathan Sterner speaks with David Smith, the Washington Bureau Chief of The Guardian about the tumult swirling around the Trump White House and the potential negative impact these latest events may have on GOP candidates as midterm elections loom ever closer. Here in Baltimore, there are new developments in the case against Keith Davis Jr. as a prosecutor who worked on the case for the States Attorney's office is fired after details of a DWI conviction are brought to light, and Maryland's Catholic Community reflects on child sex abuse in the church following the release of a Pennsylvania grand jury report detailing acts of sexual violence perpetrated by 301 predator priests on over 1,000 children. Many are calling for Attorney General Frosh to initiate similar investigations here in Maryland. Baltimore Sun investigative reporter Jean Marbella and Real New Network Reporter, and contributor to the Baltimore AFRO, Stephen Janis join us for a look at these stories and more.

In this week's news, the federal government faces a shutdown as Baltimore’s police department is given a shake-up. The Congress and the Senate are arguing about passing a short-term spending resolution to avoid what Republicans are calling ----the Schumer Shutdown.---- Democrats say that the bi-partisan bill on DACA crafted by Senator Lindsey Graham and Senator Dick Durbin has what it takes to solve the crisis for Dreamers, and avoid a messy and costly shutdown.Meanwhile, Baltimore Mayor Catherine Pugh has fired Police Commissioner Kevin Davis. 30-year City Police veteran Darryl DeSousa began serving as acting commissioner this morning.

She joins Tom on the line from the Times newsroom in New York to talk about DACA and the potential government shutdown.Following that, Jean Marbella, an investigative reporter for the Baltimore Sun, joins Tom in Studio A to talk about what Commissioner's Davis' removal means for the city, and for the police department, which is operating under a consent decree with the Justice Department.

A look at big problems in housing in Baltimore: People losing their homes — renters through eviction and homeowners under a federal program originally intended to keep them in their houses.3:10: Kristerfer Burnett and John Bullock, first-term members of the Baltimore City Council, have raised flags about problems caused by a federal program to sell off delinquent mortgages to private investors. Instead of helping homeowners modify the terms of their mortgages and stay in their houses, the result, they say, has been more evictions and empty homes.22:36: Sun reporters Jean Marbella and Doug Donovan talk about “Dismissed,” their long, deep look at rent court and the high number of evictions in the city. Their stories appeared within the last two weeks in the Sun, accompanied by a vivid, user-friendly display online at baltimoresun.com. The Sun’s investigation revealed, among other things, that in 2013, Baltimore's renters received more court-ordered eviction notices per capita than renters in any other city. More than 67,000 notices that year led to more than 6,600 evictions. Since then, Baltimore District Court judges have issued 282,000 more eviction orders and nearly 28,000 formal evictions. Evictions cause all kinds of problems for families, the Sun examination found. Read the stories about rent court and evictions at baltimoresun.com/rentcourt.
