Donald Trump: We’re having a News Conference tomorrow in the White House. I’m going to make our Capital safer and more beautiful than it ever was before. The Homeless have to move out, IMMEDIATELY. We will give you places to stay, but FAR from the Capital. The Criminals, you don’t have to move out. We’re going to put you in jail where you belong. It’s all going to happen very fast, just like the Border. We went from millions pouring in, to ZERO in the last few months. This will be easier — Be prepared! There will be no “MR. NICE GUY.” We want our Capital BACK. Thank you for your attention to this matter! (Donald Trump on Truth Social)

President Donald Trump posted a blistering statement on Truth Social, declaring that “Crime in Washington, DC is totally out of control.”

He pointed to youth gangs, violent assaults and the lack of consequences for offenders.
“If DC doesn’t get its act together, and quickly,” Trump warned, “we will have no choice but to take Federal control of the City . . . and put criminals on notice that they’re not going to get away with it anymore.”
Donald Trump: The Press Conference on Crime and “Beautification” will be held tomorrow, at 10:00 A.M. EST, in the Press Briefing Room, and it will not only involve ending the Crime, Murder, and Death in our Nation’s Capital, but will also be about Cleanliness and the General Physical Renovation and Condition of our once beautiful and well maintained Capital. We are not going to allow people to spend $3.1 Billion Dollars on fixing up a building, like the Federal Reserve, which could have been done in a far more elegant and time sensitive manner for $50 to $100 Million Dollars. The Renovation would have actually been better, and we would have saved $3 Billion Dollars, Traffic Jams, and never-ending Construction. The Mayor of D.C., Muriel Bowser, is a good person who has tried, but she has been given many chances, and the Crime Numbers get worse, and the City only gets dirtier and less attractive. The American Public is not going to put up with it any longer. Just like I took care of the Border, where you had ZERO Illegals coming across last month, from millions the year before, I will take care of our cherished Capital, and we will make it, truly, GREAT AGAIN! Before the tents, squalor, filth, and Crime, it was the most beautiful Capital in the World. It will soon be that again. Thank you for your attention to this matter — See you tomorrow at 10 A.M.! (Donald Trump on Truth Social)

National Guard in DC? Trump could deploy military to combat crime
By Amanda Hurley, Fox, August 11, 2025:
WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump has been threatening a federal takeover of Washington, D.C. for weeks, and now the district could see those words take action.
Hundreds of federal officers took to the streets of Washington D.C. on Saturday night, the second day of President Donald Trump’s plan to drive down violent crime in the country’s capital.
Hundreds of federal officers were already deployed across the District this past weekend, making multiple arrests, including carrying a pistol without a license, a fugitive from Maryland, driving on a suspended license and dirt bike riding in the park.
What they’re saying:
ADVERTISEMENTThere has reportedly been little communication with local leadership, including D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser, who says a National Guard deployment would have tp be carefully coordinated.
“They are not law enforcement officials,” Bowser said on MSNBC’s “The Weekend” on Sunday.
“They are men and women who leave their families to serve their country, and that just is not their primary role, to enforce local laws. So I’m concerned about that. I’m concerned that they are not being used efficiently.”
