While announcing a federal takeover of the police department of Washington, D.C., on Monday, the president threatened several cities with similar measures. Shortly after sharing his plan to deploy hundreds of National Guard troops in the capital, Trump hinted at the idea of deploying the National Guard in other major metropolises.

The president is planning to flex his law enforcement power over Washington, declaring that he would clear the city of homeless people and crack down on crime.

The New York Police Department says three people have been wounded during a shooting at New York City's Times Square.
