President Trump is taking bold action to clean up the crime-infested streets of Washington DC. He has federalized the city’s police force and deployed National Guard troops to restore law and order to our nation’s capital. This is exactly the kind of strong leadership America needs.
The President invited reporters to ride along with DC police to see the crime problem with their own eyes. Too many liberal media outlets have ignored the violence and chaos plaguing our capital city. Now they can witness firsthand what Trump is fighting to fix.
Federal agents are now patrolling DC streets around the clock. In recent operations, over 1,400 officers made dozens of arrests and seized seven illegal firearms. These are the results you get when you have a President who actually cares about public safety.
The crime surge in DC has been absolutely shameful under Democrat leadership. Just this week, a former government worker was brutally beaten in the streets. Families visiting our national monuments should not have to fear for their safety.
Trump has full authority to control DC police for 30 days under federal law. He plans to ask Congress for a long-term extension of this emergency power. Republicans in Congress need to back him up on this crucial fight.
The President is not just fighting crime but also working to beautify Washington. He wants to remove graffiti, clear out homeless camps from parks, and fix the roads. This is what making America great again looks like in action.
Democrats will no doubt resist Trump’s efforts to restore order to DC. They prefer the chaos and lawlessness that helps their radical agenda. But the American people elected Trump to drain the swamp and clean up this mess.
This federal takeover of DC police shows Trump means business about law and order. He is using every tool at his disposal to protect American families and restore respect for our capital city. Finally, we have a President who puts America first.
