Trump Plans Federal Crime Crackdown, Homeless Removal in Washington DC

News summary

President Donald Trump has announced a firm crackdown on crime and homelessness in Washington, D.C., with plans to federalize law enforcement efforts in the city. Following a violent assault on a young man defending a woman, Trump declared there would be "no Mr. Nice Guy" approach, ordering homeless individuals to be moved out of the capital immediately, though promised alternative accommodations far from the city. Federal agents from multiple agencies, including the U.S. Park Police, FBI, DEA, ATF, and ICE, have been deployed for a weeklong operation focused on reducing violent crime in heavily trafficked areas. Trump emphasized a rapid and strict enforcement approach, threatening to jail criminals and signaling a broader federal takeover to restore order, which would require Congressional approval. Critics warn that Trump's policies, such as an executive order allowing the displacement and institutionalization of homeless people, risk infringing on civil liberties and could lead to harsh treatment of vulnerable populations. The administration insists these measures aim to make the capital safer and more beautiful for all Americans, reflecting Trump’s commitment to reclaiming the city from violence and disorder.
