I was in the middle of taping on my iPhone for a social video from the White House North Lawn when we heard the shots. It sounded like dozens of gunshots. We were told to sprint to the press briefing room where we are holding now.

I’ve seen Baltimore experience four homicides in a day - even the span of a few hours - countless times. April just saw 4 homicides for the entire month, a single-month, all-time low for the records we have going back to 1970. @alex_mann10 reports thebanner.com/community/loca…

Here is video of the heroic actions that members of the NYPD took this morning to rescue children and adults from a burning home in Queens. They were hurt. They had just been thrown to the ground by an explosion. And in that moment, with no clear sense of what else they might be walking into, they made the decision to keep moving forward. Their focus stayed exactly where it needed to be: on the people inside, on getting those children out, and on making sure that situation didn’t claim innocent lives.

Lesson for New Jersey, which is charging !$150 for a train ride under the river for the World Cup.
Some of it is just how Pittsburgh laid out. But was it really necessary for PA highway signs to be flashing warnings telling people. “NFL Draft this weekend. Avoid unnecessary travel.” Cities should be inviting locals into mega sporting events, not telling them to stay home.

Workers and business owners at bars and restaurants on outskirts of Downtown Pittsburgh, neighborhoods like Strip District, upset and disappointed. “record” crowds at NFL Draft have resulted in less than normal traffic for them.
