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.”
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:
There 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.”
