President Donald Trump has announced his opposition to the planned relocation of the FBI headquarters to Greenbelt, Maryland, citing the site as too far from Washington, D.C. Despite the General Services Administration’s selection of Greenbelt as the preferred site after an extensive review process, Trump has vowed to block the move and instead build a new headquarters in its current location.
In response to Trump’s remarks, Prince George’s County State’s Attorney Aisha Braveboy highlighted the inaccuracy of his claims, emphasizing the proximity of Greenbelt to the Department of Justice and the rigorous evaluation process that led to its selection. Braveboy also criticized Trump’s characterization of Maryland as a “liberal state,” suggesting political motivations behind the relocation decision.
Maryland officials, including Governor Wes Moore and Attorney General Anthony Brown, are now exploring legal avenues to challenge any attempts to reverse the relocation decision. The state is committed to ensuring that the FBI has a modern headquarters to carry out its critical mission, with Braveboy expressing hope for continued collaboration with federal representatives and the administration.
The battle over the FBI’s relocation is anticipated to continue, with political and legal disputes expected to unfold in the coming months. The controversy surrounding the headquarters move underscores the complex intersection of federal decision-making, state interests, and partisan politics in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area.
