Trump Blocks FBI HQ Move to Greenbelt, Maryland

News summary

President Donald Trump announced plans to block the relocation of the FBI headquarters from Washington, D.C. to Greenbelt, Maryland, citing the need for proximity between the FBI and the Department of Justice. The decision contradicts the Biden administration's previous selection of Greenbelt for the new headquarters, which was based on cost-effectiveness and strategic value. Despite Trump's incorrect claim that Greenbelt is 'three hours away', the site is only about 10 miles from the current location. Maryland officials, including U.S. Senators and Representatives, criticized Trump's decision and emphasized the benefits of the Greenbelt site. Trump suggested alternative sites within D.C., such as the existing location or the former Department of Commerce building, proposing a broader plan to revitalize the capital. The move is a significant setback for Prince George's County, Maryland, which anticipated economic benefits from the relocation.
