The federal takeover of DC police is classic Incidiary Common Sense from Trump. His opponents will now have to argue that crime in DC is no big deal and the status quo is fine. They can’t win that argument.

Trump is imagining a Washington DC with a far lower crime rate than its residents have become accustomed to. Many of those residents will oppose him for it. It's like they are protective of their crime rate, now that Trump is threatening it.

… what I’m sayin?”DC residents who oppose Trump cleaning up crime want to have their grass cut by the federal government:

“Is he going to come pick up our trash next? … We do have areas with high grass he can cut.”

Just when you thought protesters couldn’t get more ridiculous, these DC protesters take it to another level.

CNN is in a complete PANIC over this.

In July 2025, DC police commander suspended for downgrading shootings, stabbings & carjackings to lesser offenses to make crime stats look better.

… National Guard soldiers are trained for warfare & natural disasters, not for community policing. Every American should be deeply concerned with what they’re witnessing today.Very brave of you to post this since it is entirely your fault. https://t.co/ovjgO9pxhz

It might make sense if he’s trying to create compelling TV and distract folks from the real scandals he’s facing, but it doesn’t make our city safer & it’s a dangerous abuse of power and authority.
Over the last two years, DC has experienced a 52% drop in violent crime and is now at a 30-year low. While any crime is one too many, every local leader in DC is committed to the work and progress of safer communities and preventing violence
Today's announcement will put untrained and unaccountable members of the military in an untenable position in our communities. It’s unnecessary, unwarranted, & a dangerous escalation of power in the Nation’s Capital simply because he can.
