What Trump can — and can’t — do in his bid to take over law enforcement in DC

Oh, well. Congress is a rubber stamp now.

"Trump cannot singlehandedly wrest control of the district’s government."

"The Constitution grants Congress the power to 'exercise exclusive legislation' over the 'seat of government' of the United States. In 1973, with the passage of the Home Rule Act, Congress created the local D.C. government that still exists to this day."
