A stand-off between President Donald Trump's administration and an independent nonprofit came to a head this week in a dramatic public scene involving police.
Since Friday, members of Trump and Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency had sought and been repeatedly denied access to the U.S. Institute of Peace office in Washington. After arriving again unannounced on Monday, the staffers were able to enter with assistance from Metropolitan Police Department officers.
The initial months of Trump's second term have been marked by his and his billionaire ally's endeavor to slash bureaucracy, consequently turning much of the federal government on its head. The president and Musk have purged department workforces and aimed to shutter entire agencies.
