Trump Administration Plans To Take Control Of D.C.'s Union Station [View all]
Now what else can the Regime fuck up? Take control of Reagan National Airport? God help us. The U.S. Transportation Department said on Wednesday it planned to reclaim management of Washington Union Station, one of the country's biggest rail hubs.
In March, the White House forced the CEO of U.S. passenger railroad company Amtrak, Stephen Gardner, to step down following orders by President Donald Trump.
The plan to reclaim Union Station follows Trumps move this month to deploy hundreds of National Guard troops to Washington after he took control of the local police department over the objections of local leaders.
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said in a statement the department was renegotiating a cooperative agreement with the non-profit Union Station Redevelopment Corporation, which controls the station, and Amtrak. In September, formal action confirming the USDOTs renewed control of Union Station is expected, he added.
