Trump Abandons San Francisco Federal Deployment After Discussions

President Donald Trump has decided not to deploy federal agents to San Francisco after discussions with Mayor Daniel Lurie and encouragement from local tech CEOs, including Nvidia's Jensen Huang and Salesforce's Marc Benioff. Trump acknowledged Mayor Lurie was making progress on crime and agreed to give him a chance to improve the city's situation without federal intervention. Mayor Lurie expressed that while partnerships with federal agencies are welcome to address drug issues, militarized enforcement would hinder San Francisco's recovery. Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem also confirmed the cancellation of the federal deployment. Trump left open the possibility of future deployments, indicating he may act if necessary. The decision followed protests against the planned deployment and highlighted tensions between federal and local approaches to crime and public safety in San Francisco.
