Trump to Meet with Putin in Alaska

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 4: 6:05pm- While speaking with the press, President Donald Trump said that if Friday’s meeting with Vladimir Putin does not go well and there is no clear sign of a peace agreement between Russia and Ukraine, Russia will face “very severe consequences” in the form of onerous sanctions. 6:30pm- Earlier this week, President Donald Trump announced a 30-day federal takeover of Washington D.C.’s police department—while simultaneously deploying 800 National Guard troops—to fight violent crime in the nation’s capital. At the White House press briefing, Trump announced Attorney General Pam Bondi will oversee the federal takeover—while Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth will provide military support “if needed.” Additionally, the administration will assign 120 F.B.I. agents to conduct nighttime patrols throughout Washington D.C. While progressive politicians have attacked the Trump Administration over the decision, even MSNBC is now conceding that there is a serious crime problem that needs to be addressed. Has President Trump forced progressives into defending crime?
