The palpable success of President Donald Trump’s decisive law enforcement surge in the nation’s capital has created an undeniable and politically inconvenient reality for his detractors. Even Washington, DC’s Democratic Mayor, Muriel Bowser, was compelled to publicly acknowledge the dramatic results, a testament to the efficacy of the President’s strategy.
This admission starkly contrasts with the hysterical narrative peddled by the liberal media, which initially framed this necessary action as an “authoritarian takeover.” Their preferred fiction, however, collapses under the weight of undeniable facts and statistics, forcing even a prominent Democrat to concede to the Trump administration’s achievement.
In a press conference that undoubtedly caused consternation within her own party, Mayor Bowser provided the irrefutable data that the mainstream media seeks to ignore. “We greatly appreciate the surge of officers that enhance what MPD has been able to do in this city,” Bowser stated, explicitly endorsing the partnership between federal law enforcement and the Metropolitan Police Department.
D.C. Mayor Bowser: We “greatly appreciate” the surge.
“The difference between this 20-day period of this federal surge and last year represents a 87% reduction in carjackings” in the city, she says, adding that “neighborhoods feel safer and are safer” because of it. pic.twitter.com/H3JjJprK4y— Caleb Howe (@CalebHowe) August 27, 2025
She highlighted the most significant improvement, noting, “Carjackings were the most troubling crime that plagued D.C. in 2023 and they have decreased in recent years.” The figures she cited are nothing short of astounding: an 87% drop in carjackings and a 15% fall in crime overall in the twenty days since the federal initiative began, compared to the same period last year. “We know that when carjackings go down, when use of gun goes down, when homicide or robbery go down, neighborhoods feel safer and are safer, so this surge has been important to us,” Bowser affirmed.
This public validation from a political opponent underscores a tragic truth of the modern Democratic Party and its media allies. It is a shame that their ideology is so poisoned by an irrational hatred of President Trump that they would consciously prefer rampant crime over a Trump-led solution. Their commitment to a “defund the police” narrative and portraying any robust security measure as oppression is more important to them than the safety of American citizens.
While they traffic in fearmongering and falsehoods, President Trump is delivering tangible safety and security. The Mayor’s own words confirm that the surge has led to “more stops that have resulted in the seizure of illegal guns” and more “accountability in the system” that “is driving down illegal behavior.” This is the leadership and effective governance that President Trump provides, achieving what decades of failed Democratic policies in urban centers could not.

The liberal media, of course, will downplay or spin this success, as it shatters their carefully constructed caricature of the President. They cannot celebrate streets made safer for DC residents because the architect of that success is Donald J. Trump. Their priority is not public safety; it is political opposition.
This episode proves that when action is taken without regard for partisan games, real people benefit. President Trump’s unwavering commitment to law and order is producing results that even his most vocal critics are forced to admit, exposing the hollow and dangerous agenda of those who put politics before people.
