I mean, the president has had his complaints about DC and the idea that it was this crimeridden place going all the way back to his first term. and he's had kind of this broader concern about crime in cities. But this eme ...

Joining me now is NBC News senior national security correspondent Courtney Kubie who is at the Pentagon. Uh so Courtney, we heard President Trump say that Zillinsky is not going to be a part of these talks. How significant of a blow is that for Ukraine and European nations.>> It's a huge deal, Ryan.

Imagine that would mean President Trump and Vladimir Putin would ...

This is Liberation Day in DC and we're going to take our capital back. Can DC actually do anything to stop President Trump from federalizing police and deploying the National Guard. I'm officially invoking section 740 of the District of Columbia Home Rule Act.Well, under the Home Rule Act, which gives DC residents the right to elect their own mayor, a president can determine special conditions that require federal use of DC police. So, in other words, a president can decide to take control of those law enfo ...
