"Let me be crystal clear," Attorney General Pam Bondi said during Trump's announcement news conference. "Crime in D.C. is ending and ending today." This statement came as President Trump announced his takeover of the D.C. police force and the deployment of National Guard members to address what he described as a crime emergency. The president's assertion of a lawless city was met with skepticism, as city officials highlighted that crime rates were already falling. The legal framework allows Trump to control the police department for a month, raising questions about the extent of federal involvement.
