The fallout from Trump's federal takeover of the police force in D.C. continues. Bondi's latest move prompts backlash.

P resident Donald Trump became the first president to invoke the District of Columbia Home Rule Act to take temporary control over law enforcement in Washington, D.C., citing high crime levels that constituted an emergency.

Several DC lawmakers slammed Trump's latest plan to combat crime in the nation's capital, while the police union expressed their support.

In Trump’s second term, backed by Republican control of both houses of Congress, Bowser has walked a public tightrope for months, emphasizing common ground with the Trump administration on issues such as the successful effort to bring the NFL’s Washington Commanders back to the District of Columbia.

Under a compromise, the administration will work through the D.C. mayor to direct police activities in the district.

The District of Columbia's attorney general sued Donald Trump on Friday in a bid to impede his attempted takeover of Washington's police force, escalating a power struggle between the Republican U.S.

When Trump announced his law enforcement actions in D.C., he also singled out a slew of other Democratic cities. The mayors of Baltimore, LA, Chicago, New York and Oakland, Calif., say crime is down.

President Trump has warned he might send the National Guard to other cities. The Black mayors of those cities vow to push back.

President Trump said he would take over Washington, D.C.'s police force and deploy National Guard troops to fight crime and car thefts.
