Trump's D.C Police Takeover Explained: What Changes For American Police? How Dangerous is it? [Video]

Trump's D.C Police Takeover Explained: What Changes For American Police? How Dangerous is it?

President Donald Trump has invoked the Home Rule Act to seize control of Washington, D.C.’s Metropolitan Police Department, deploying 800 National Guard troops and placing operations under Attorney General Pam Bondi. Federal agents from the DEA, FBI, and Border Patrol are embedded in local policing, despite crime rates being at a 30-year low. Experts say this unprecedented move applies only to D.C., though Trump’s broader agenda includes expanding federal support for law enforcement, rolling back accountability measures, and dismantling diversity programs nationwide. #Trump #WashingtonDC #PoliceTakeover #NationalGuard #DCLawEnforcement #MetropolitanPolice #HomeRuleAct #PamBondi #FederalControl #LawEnforcement #USPolitics #BreakingNews #PoliceReform #CrimePolicy #Accountability #PoliceSupport #FBI #DEA #BorderPatrol #MPD #LawAndOrder #DCNews #PolicePowers #FederalAuthority #PoliticalNews #TrumpOrders #PublicSafety #PolicePolicy #DOJ #DCPolitics #USNews Also Read President Trump to Push Putin for Peace in Ukraine During Alaska Meeting :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/president-trump-to-push-putin-for-peace-in-ukraine-during-alaska-meeting-7828161.html?ref=DMDesc Why Is Trump Really Upset With India?

Trump Declares ‘Liberation Day’ in DC, Deploys National Guard, Takes Over Police—Vows to Crush Crime

“Liberation Day” in Washington, D.C. President Donald Trump has declared a public safety emergency and taken direct federal control of the D.C. Metropolitan Police. Flanked by Attorney General Pam Bondi, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, and FBI Director Kash Patel, Trump announced the deployment of the National Guard to restore order in the capital, which he compared to Baghdad and Mexico City. Citing “phony crime numbers,” Trump said D.C. is spiraling into chaos — and he’s not stopping there. Cities like Chicago and Los Angeles are next on his list as he vows to expand the federal crackdown. Is this a bold move to save American cities — or an unprecedented power grab?

Trump Unleashes Fury: ‘Obama Behind Russiagate Takedown Plot’ | Calls It America’s Darkest Scandal [Video]

Trump Unleashes Fury: ‘Obama Behind Russiagate Takedown Plot’ | Calls It America’s Darkest Scandal

In a fiery interview, President Donald Trump accused Barack Obama of being the “mastermind” behind the infamous Russiagate conspiracy—a plot Trump says was fabricated to destroy his presidency. Citing newly declassified documents from Special Counsel John Durham’s 2023 report, Trump claimed Hillary Clinton and top Obama-era officials coordinated a disinformation campaign to link him to Russia. He alleged that Obama not only approved the plan but “pushed it,” fueling what he called the “biggest scandal in American history.” Trump criticized Clinton but noted he chose not to prosecute her after winning in 2016—an act he now regrets. The documents, released by DNI Tulsi Gabbard and Senator Chuck Grassley, reportedly expose links between Clinton operatives and George Soros-funded groups, alongside FBI involvement. Trump insisted he wouldn’t interfere with legal proceedings, leaving the decision on indictments to AG Pam Bondi. The revelations mark a potential political earthquake in the run-up to 2025. #Trump #Obama #Russiagate #DurhamReport #HillaryClinton #PamBondi #TulsiGabbard #ChuckGrassley #PoliticalScandal #BreakingNews #TrumpNews #ObamaScandal #ClintonEmails #DeepState #RussiaHoax #FBIInvolvement #GeorgeSoros #USPolitics #MediaManipulation #DeclassifiedDocuments ~HT.410~GR.122~ED.103~

Mexico has extradited 26 top cartel leaders to the U.S. under a deal with the Trump administration, including Los Cuinis leader Abigael González Valencia and Roberto Salazar, accused in a 2008 deputy killing. The U.S. has designated the CJNG cartel as a foreign terrorist group but agreed not to seek the death penalty.

FBI ‘BLOODBATH’ On Trump's Orders? Kash Patel Faces Backlash-Calls to RESIGN After Agents Fired

Kash Patel, Trump’s FBI Director, is facing intense backlash after a wave of top FBI agents were ousted, including leaders from the January 6 probe. A group of former FBI and national security officials, calling themselves “The Steady State,” accuse Patel of turning the bureau into a political weapon for Trump. They warn that the purge threatens the FBI’s independence and undermines democratic values. Among the dismissed are high-ranking agents Brian Driscoll, Michael Feinberg, Walter Giardina, and Washington Field Office head Steve Jensen, in what critics are calling a “bureau bloodbath.” #KashPatel #FBI #PoliticalPurge #Bloodbath #Trump #FBIBacklash #SteadyState #Democracy #USPolitics #January6 #FBIDirector #PoliticalDrama #JusticeSystem #SecurityServices #Authoritarianism #TrumpAdministration #BreakingNews #LawEnforcement #DemocraticValues #FBIIndependence #USNews #PoliticalWeapon #FBIControversy #LeadershipCrisis #WashingtonDC #NationalSecurity #FBIInvestigation #TrumpTeam #BureauBloodbath #FBIShakeup Also Read FBI Chief Kash Patel Likely To Step Down :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/fbi-chief-kash-patel-likely-to-step-down-7799205.html?ref=DMDesc Pahalgam Attack: FBI’s Kash Patel Condemns Terror, Assures India of Complete Support :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pahalgam-attack-fbi-s-kash-patel-condemns-terror-assures-india-of-complete-support-4136541.html?ref=DMDesc FBI Arrests Punjab-Based Terrorist Harpreet Singh In US: Who Is Happy Passia? :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/fbi-arrests-punjab-based-terrorist-harpreet-singh-in-us-who-is-happy-passia-4127219.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.420~GR.124~
