The Democrats and the local authorities criticized the Trump administration for taking over the law enforcement efforts in DC and said that the movement was part of a gate of power.
The Washington DC described the Mayor Muriel Bowser movement as “disturbing and unprecedented”.
The Columbia region’s home rule law allows Trump to take the city police department under federal control for up to 30 days. Bowser said that the giving of DC state, which is a problem that local authorities have repeatedly defended, may prevent taking over.
“If people are worried about the President’s national guards to our city, the time to do this would be a draft law that the Congress’s DC national guards could control the control of DC.” He said. He continued: “So, when a city is not a state and is not completely autonomous and do not have senators, there are things that the federal government can do.”

“I don’t know how many of these cases have been solved, but I can tell you, weapons on the streets. Individuals who are not worried about accountability, who have no reason to fear law enforcement officers.” “Today, all these victims, all these families, will be responsible for all these families, we will make a difference, and law enforcement officers in the region, this innocent, silent crime victims will be sure that we will be sure.”
