In a dazzling display of bipartisan patience, D.C. officials have bravely struck a deal to 'prevent full federal control' of their local police, at least for now. While Washington's power brokers keep playing 'Who Runs the Police?' one thing is certain: the District remains its own juggler, balancing local charm with federal meddling. As one insider quipped, it's like 'agreeing to dance, but only if we lead and promise not to call the FBI dance patrol.' Truly a masterclass in local autonomy with just a sprinkle of federal watchfulness!
