Trump will reassess DC crime crackdown after 30 days

Leavitt is asked about a timeline for the crackdown currently happening in DC. She says the administration will revaluate and reassess the plan after 30 days.

Trump announced yesterday that the federal government would be taking over the capital's Metropolitan Police Department in a move heavily criticised by the city's mayor.

Washington, DC's Home Rule Act stops the president from federalising the city's police for longer than 30 days, but Congress could then extend the takeover for longer.
