D.C police chief remains in command after Trump admin. backs off Bondi’s order

From MSNBC.

The Trump administration has rescinded an order that stripped Washington, D.C.’s police chief of authority, less than a day after U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi issued it.

As part of a Friday agreement between the Justice Department and D.C. Attorney General Brian Schwalb’s office, DEA Chief Terry Cole will now serve as Bondi’s “designee” rather than as emergency police chief—a role Bondi had sought in her original order asserting federal control over the department.

Schwalb called the agreement a “very important win for home rule.”
