President Donald Trump expanded his crackdown on Washington, D.C., on Monday, signing executive orders that give more resources to the federalization of the city’s law enforcement and direct officials to change the city’s cashless bail policy.
He also emphasized similar federal intervention could happen in other cities — including the deployment of National Guard troops and efforts to block cashless bail.
“We’re ending it, but we’re starting by ending it in D.C.,” Trump said of cashless bail in the Oval Office.
