💨 Abstract
President Donald Trump's administration appointed a federal official to lead the District of Columbia's police department, sparking a legal challenge from D.C. officials who argue the move exceeds Trump's authority. Attorney General Brian Schwalb filed a lawsuit asking a judge to affirm that the city retains control of its police department. Trump's Attorney General Pam Bondi named DEA boss Terry Cole as the new head, requiring the Metropolitan Police Department to seek his approval for orders.
