Every story quoting Trump saying this is to "rescue our nation’s capital from crime" needs to note that violent crime in D.C. is down 26%, murders are down 12%, juvenile arrests are down 20%, and ask who will get hurt from a domestic military deployment and what this "crackdown" is really about

President Donald Trump says National Guard soldiers will be deployed on the streets of Washington, D.C., and he asserted federal control over the city's Metropolitan police department. The move comes over the objections of local leaders.

President Trump promised a weekend crackdown on Washington, D.C.'s homeless population and criminals. Trump activated federal agents to also be a show of force across the district.

Yet another court ruling affirms that our constitution gives citizenship equally to every child born on U.S. soil — regardless of their parents’ immigration status.

This ruling is a crucial step in stopping this attack on newborn babies and on the very fabric of our nation.
Breaking: Trump's birthright citizenship order is blocked nationwide again, after a judge in New Hampshire said he would certify a nationwide class of children who would be deprived of citizenship if the policy took effect.

Without the rule of law, babies are put at risk by attacks on birthright citizenship, people who look like me wouldn’t even be able to hold office, there would be no government services to take care of American citizens. That’s what’s at stake with this President and this White House.

So am I reading this court decision correctly? We now have 50 micronations with their own laws interpreting the U.S. Constitution wholly separate from one another? But there's one guy with private law enforcement who is immune from all punishment who can do whatever he wants in those 50 states?

Elizabeth Warren: "It's safe to assume that when he says he has never disparaged women in the military, he's just trying to see what he can get away with. Because we've got the video, we've got him in print what he has just said as recently as November of 2024."
