Since the deployment of National Guard troops in Washington, D.C., announced by President Donald Trump on August 11, 2025, official data from the Metropolitan PD indicates a significant decline in crime rates. Violent crime in D.C. is down 26% in 2025 compared to the same period in 2024.

Funny. Before the troops got there, that # was 30%.

Funny. As much as 60% of violent crime goes unreported. Go research that.

If it’s working so well, maybe he should send the troops into Mississippi, Alabama, Missouri, Tennessee, Ohio and Louisiana.

Yes I agree. Some of the most dangerous cities in those states are run by Democrats.

Sorry to see you've drunk way too much koolaid. Turn off FoxNews & stop getting your "news" from social media & try READING Reuters & The Guardian. TRY to allow information that isn't already in your brain.
