Description
A federal policing operation in Washington, D.C. faces legal scrutiny after an October 14 D.C. Circuit hearing questioned the legality of the National Guard deployment. The deployment has been extended to January 2029 with roughly 2,900 troops and a $292 million housing contract, and the episode weighs officially cited crime statistics against home-rule counter-arguments.
