The Director of Narcotics Control Department, Terry Cole, the new federal government designer, has pledged to help in the Department of the Capital Police Department in Washington, DC, to allow local policemen to do their work again “to control the increasing crime.

Cole was exploited by Public Prosecutor Pam Bondi after the Trump administration announced on Monday a major interference in taking experimental measures in the country’s capital. The move came after several heavy violent crimes, including the killing of a trainee in congress.

“We cannot withstand the expenses of the booked,” Cole told Fox News on Tuesday. “We have tremendous cooperation, tremendous participation, and what is more encouraged, the police are looking for their work again.”

According to a matter issued by Bondi on Friday, Cole’s role is defined as “a designer throughout the emergency period announced by the president for the purpose of directing the mayor of Colombia to provide such services from [MPD] The public prosecutor also sees necessary and appropriate.

“The new prosecutor Bondi is stronger because instead of canceling only one thing of this bad MPD order requires full MPD cooperation with federal immigration authorities,” said a spokesman for the Ministry of Justice.

The spokesman added: “We are not retreating, as President Trump continues to control the law to determine what is necessary and appropriate.”

Washington, DC, will remain the police chief Pamela Smith technically in his position, but Cole will play a major role in ensuring that city leaders such as Smith and the mayor of Morel Boser are in line with the requests of the federal government, especially in cooperation with the immigration authorities.

Dozens of arrests have already taken place since the seizure of illegal immigrants, where Ice and other federal agencies are patrolling the streets of the capital.

“Public Prosecutor Bondi has just issued a new directive to the mayor who asks MPD to provide services that he found necessary by its designer, Director of the Narcotics Control Department, Terry Cole, to completely and completely comply with the Federal Immigration Law and authorities, regardless of any policies that MPD may have otherwise.

Cole has a wide background in the application of the law, including action in the drug control department for more than 20 years before retiring from the federal government in 2020, according to his personal file on DeA. After that, Virginia Secretary for Public Safety and Internal Security was from 2023 to 2025.

“I am pleased to see this happening under the leadership of Terry Cole,” said Glenn Yongen, Virginia, in northern Virginia, in partnership with Complelth and the Federalists.

The Republican ruler added: “Terry Cole, who is now the director and director of the drug control department, is leading this effort on behalf of the administration, is the best man in the country to do so. I have great confidence in him, and I would like to thank President Trump for taking this big step.”

Yongen noticed in February that Cole played a major role in treating illegal drugs in the Commonwealth.

“His leadership of our free work initiative in Virginia has seized tens of thousands of illegal drugs – including more than 70 million fatal doses of fentanel – and has become a criterion for cooperation between federal, state and local laws.” “He will put the safety and security of the Americans first as the head of the drug control administration. It is a great day to be an American and bad to be a drug dealer.”
