US EditionTrump Moves to Evict Homeless from DC, Threatens Federal Control to Curb Crime
- President Donald Trump announced a press conference on Monday at the White House to address violent crime in Washington, D.C.

- The developments suggest a federal push to assert more authority over the capital, though full takeover would require congressional action and faces political and legal challenges.
