President Donald Trump's recent declaration of a crime emergency in Washington, D.C. has led to the temporary federal control of the city's police department.

Critics, including D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser, have expressed concerns about the justification for such measures, labeling them an "authoritarian push." The legal implications of these actions, particularly concerning the Posse Comitatus Act, are also being scrutinized [1][2].
