Trump Seizes Control of D.C. Police Department: A Convicted Felon in Charge of the Cops

Justice Matters with Glenn Kirschner

Donald Trump has ordered the deployment of National Guard soldiers to the streets of the District of Columbia, seized control of the DC Metropolitan Police Department, and said he was taking 120 FBI agents out of their current assignments and making them patrol the streets of DC. As the Attorney General for the District of Columbia, Brian Schwalb said, as reported by The Hill, "DC attorney general: Trump's actions are 'unprecedented, unnecessary, and unlawful.'"

Glenn reviews the law governing Trump's actions, and discusses why his conduct is not only unlawful but also offensive, disrespectful, dangerous, and dictatorial.
