🇺🇸 D.C. to become Trump's Forbidden City?

While on Air Force One earlier tonight, U.S. President Donald J. Trump expressed support for a push by some Republican Members of Congress, for the Federal Government to “take over” Washington D.C. (the District of Columbia), effectively ending the Home Rule Act of 1973.

📝 Kyla Sommers: "Before the home rule law, D.C. had been governed by unelected leaders appointed by the president, a system preferred by an alliance of White Washingtonians and Southern conservatives in Congress for a city with a growing Black population."
