Attorney General Pam Bondi issued an order rescinding sanctuary city policies in Washington, D.C. and naming an "emergency police commissioner."

Under the accord presented by the two sides to U.S. District Judge Ana Reyes, Trump administration lawyers conceded that D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser's appointed police chief, Pamela Smith, would remain in command of the Washington, D.C., Metropolitan Police Department.

Attorney General Pam Bondi on Friday issued a revised directive that leaves Washington, D.C.'s Metropolitan Police Department Chief Pamela Smith in charge of the city's police force, following a successful emergency legal effort by local D.C. leaders that challenged the administration's attempted total takeover of the MPD as unlawful.

The fallout from Trump's federal takeover of the police force in D.C. continues. Bondi's latest move prompts backlash.

A federal judge on Friday considered placing a temporary restraining order against the Trump administration's takeover of Washington D.C.'s Metropolitan Police Department.

Bondi designated Terry Cole, who is primarily the head of the Drug Enforcement Administration, as the city's “emergency police commissioner," on Thursday and said the role gave Cole the same power as current Police Chief Pamela Smith.

The agreement relates to the portion of the order that placed DEA Administrator Terry Cole over D.C. Police Chief Pamela Smith.
