President Trump is already eyeing an extension to the 30-day limit of the power he has to federalize DC police officers and he’s counting on a Congressional crime bill to do it.

Trump and Zelensky speak ahead of Friday’s Summit

Ahead of Friday’s historic meeting with Vladimir Putin, President Trump spoke with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky yesterday, calling it “very friendly.”
