About this episode
Since Trump announced the takeover of DC’s police his administration and Trump himself have been throwing out some big very impressive sounding numbers about arrests. But can we even trust those stats? Plus, Mayor Bowser and President Trump may be on another collision course over MPD and ICE in the District, and on Thursday, the Mayor, the Attorney General and the DC Council Chair head to the Capitol to testify on the DC-related bills Republicans proposed. The Washington Post’s Olivia George is here to break it all down.
