Republican leaders of both the House and Senate will reportedly not hold votes to extend President Trump’s takeover of the Washington, D.C., police force before it expires next week. This comes after D.C.’s attorney general filed a federal lawsuit seeking to have the deployment declared unlawful and disbanded, and after a federal magistrate judge condemned what he called “implausible, illegal, and immoral” prosecutions of defendants accused of felonies after they were swept up for relatively minor offenses.

Meanwhile, the Justice Department on Thursday sued Boston over its sanctuary policy limiting cooperation between city police and federal immigration agents. And in Illinois, Governor JB Pritzker says he expects the Trump administration to deploy a surge of ICE agents to Chicago this weekend — and that Trump could use resulting protests to deploy National Guard troops despite the governor’s objections.
