About this listen

 The Trump administration is ending federal oversight of police departments through consent decrees in Minneapolis and Louisville. Those are the locations of the high-profile police killings of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor five years ago that captured the nation’s attention on the issue. President Trump’s Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon says these consent decrees have been taking policing control away from local communities and turning it over to “un-elected bureaucrats.” Former federal prosecutor Jim Trusty joins the Rundown to discuss police oversight since the summer of 2020 and the battle over the Trump administration’s latest deportation enforcement plans.
