Alec Baldwin reacted with alarm to the federal takeover of President Donald Trump of Washington, DC, the police service and his deployment of troops in the city – saying that they are examples of Trump’s “insane movements” for “deviation of his insufficiency”.
“This idea of federalizing the DC police service, that concerns me such a seriousness,” said Baldwin in a video of Tiktok published Thursday.
On Thursday, the White House said that it would install an “emergency commissioner” supervising the DC metropolitan police department and revoked policies that limited the cooperation of officers with federal officials of the application of immigration laws. Friday, the DC prosecutor general continued the Trump administration for “illegal” movements.
Baldwin continued: “What will happen next?
“All he wants to do is deviation from his insufficiency by daring and foolish movements,” said Baldwin in the video. “The takeover of the DC police is not what I need.” The American government must solve more urgent problems, such as the Russia war against Ukraine and the military action of Israel in Gaza. “And after that, we have something else that we have to overcome,” said Baldwin – which he means Trump’s presidency.
Baldwin portrayed Trump for several years on NBC’s “Saturday Night Live” leading to and during his first mandate, triggering the president’s anger.
At the start of the Tiktok video, Baldwin said that he would have lunch at the Farmers Market in Amagansett in Long Island. “I don’t post much on Trump here,” he said. “We just have to wait for him.” The actor added that he “just hoped to go to the next elections in 2028”.
Baldwin’s comments came before DC Prosecutor General Brian L. Schwalb took legal action contesting the “illegal” attempted federal government to take control of the DC police. The trial targets the executive decree of August 11 of Trump and the order of the Prosecutor General of the United States, Pam Bondi, the order of August 14 to the mayor of DC Muriel Bowser invoking a provision never used by the law on the rule of the domicile to claim the federal command of the city’s police.

“By declaring a hostile takeover of MPD, the administration abuses its temporary limited authority under the interval rule law, undermining the district right to self-government and by putting the safety of DC residents and in danger,” said Schwalb in a statement. “The illegal actions of the administration are an affront to the dignity and autonomy of the 700,000 Americans who call DC at home. This is the most serious threat to the home rule that the district has ever faced, and we are fighting to stop it. ”
