Trump said during the press conference, “Our capital city has overtaken violent gangs and blood criminals, crowds of wild youth, drug-out frenzy and homeless people,” Trump said during the press conference. “And we are not going to be it anymore. We are not going to take it.”
Following Trump’s announcement, Democratic MPs slammed the President for allegedly overseasing and sent to the National Guard despite the trend of crime in recent years. Top Democrats, such as House Minority Leader Hakim Jeffrees, promoted the legend that the crime is at a 30 -year low.
“Violent crime in Washington, DC is at a thirty -year low,” Jeffrees said on Monday. “Donald Trump has no basis for handling the local police department. And zero credibility on the issue of law and order. Get lost.”
“As you hear an unwanted Trump, an attempt to justify deploying the National Guard in DC, here is reality: violent crime in DC is at a 30 -year low,” former Secretary State Secretary Hillary Clinton posted X,
Asked about some Democrats that the crime had fallen for 30 years, the snider argued that it is not “appropriate” to compare any city in 2025 in the 1990s.

“Most urban and metropolitan areas had a unstable time in the 90s,” he said. “We were coming out of the cracks epidemic. We were coming out of economic instability since the 80s. And then in the ’90s, we have this revolutionary policing, policing of this broken windows, this is now hot-spot policing, it looked like a compostat-operated age.”
“I don’t think any agency should say this in 2025 today, such as, ‘Oh, we are doing much better than we in 1995,” he continued. “It is a completely different world compared to 1995. You have different demographics in different fields. You have different population calculations in different regions.”
The US was shaken by violent crime waves in 2020 and in later years, when the epidemic broke the day-to-day life into major cities across the country with lockdown orders and protests and riots. The FBI recorded an increase of about 30% in murders as compared to the year, marking the agency to mark the largest single-year growth in murders since monitoring crimes.

Washington, DC, was one of the cities caught in the National Crime Trend, recorded 198 homeside that year, which had a 16 -year high for the city. Homoids 226 in 2021, one in 2022 and 203 jumped to 274 in 2023-20 years for the city.
DC, saw a decline of about 31% from 2023 to 2024 from 2023 to 2024, 2023 in 2023 reporting 274 housewives in 2023 compared to 187. Data shows that violent crime across the board fell by about 35% from 2023, when the department reported 5,345 violent crime.
“Everyone should convince that the crime is falling,” the snider said. “But at the same time, we do not have the whole picture: why is the crime more fatal than once?”
The Council on Criminal Justice Study was found in, in particular, except 2016, the incompetence of Washington increased from 2012-2021.
“The biggest single-year growth was 57% jump from 2014 to 2015,” the study reported. “From 2019 to 2020, the exponential increased by 22%, increased by another 14%in 2021. It then declined slightly in 2022 (-3%) and 2023 (-8%), a 5%increase in 2024. Before the growth of 5%. The fatal was no different from 2020 in 2020.
The writer behind the study, Senior Researcher Ernesto Lopez of the Council on Criminal Justice explained to the local media in July that despite the fall of crime trends, “incompetence has increased considerably in the country’s capital”.
Lopez told the WTOP in July, “We look at the exponibility of 2012 – again, the part of the violence that ended a murder – increased by more than 300% from 2012 to 2024, even if the rate of murder falls.” “So, violent situations may often be reduced, but when they occur violent conditions, they are likely to be more in a deadly than a decade ago.”
He said that the top takes from the study “murder and other violent crimes are declining through the first half of this year and falling below pre-political levels.”
“This is a continuous pattern of fall in crime rate,” he said. “Even some crimes, such as motor vehicle theft, which are actually looking at huge spikes in 2022 and 2023, are actually starting to come down in many courts.”
While the violence in DC has fallen in recent years, “It is still at a very high level,” Adam Gaylab, President and CEO of Council on Criminal Justice, told Fox News Digital on Wednesday, when the recent rhetoric was asked about the rhetoric that the crime is at a 30 -year low despite a deadly spiking in the city.
Gaylab said, “There has been a major and infallible decline in violence in Washington in the last two years, but it is still at a very high level and there are microtrands cut against that overall positive picture.” “When the pieces of the puzzle are moving in different directions, it is easy for people to take out some of them and create an image that leads their policy and political agenda.”

The snider said that violent crimes are decreasing during the increase in deadly, which is responsible for some variables including gangs related to gangs.
“DC is known to be a gang and crew, and I know that a teen -related crime has come pointing to a bounce started in 2021.” If you see activity related to high gang or crew that are using weapons potentially, then obviously you are going to see a more severe physical injury or death. Therefore it is one of the great features. “

Other variables that can contribute to an increase in ambience, are long waiting to receive emergency care, such as wait for slow EMS response time or long hospital, and if a police department is understood.
The study argued that the “two interconnected events” on firearms promoted confusion in DC, claiming that “comprehensive availability (of firearms) could contribute to an alleged need for self-hatches, makes a feedback loop or ‘race for weapons’ in which people achieve guns because they believe that others are armed.”
“The real consequences of this dynamic appear: The fire scriptures purchased in 2020 were used in more crimes than the annual average in the previous years. In addition, the flow of new firearms in legal markets contribute directly to the stock of firearms in illegal markets. It is that guns that are legally obtained, which may not be right for a firing” ” Increases the fatal capacity “, possibly increases the exponibility.

The snider said that she understands the argument of the Trump administration to make the police force federal, but underlined the importance of the local police to lead their jurisdiction as they understand the neighborhood that they patrol, the community and where the crime is lean. The snider argued that the administration should consider giving federal funds to increase the capabilities of local police departments to recruit and maintain the authorities.

“The presence of police in uniform prevents crime,” he said. “You have two agents or two officers who are standing on the corner of a road, you are not going to see many people snatching your purse, you are not seeing many people selling drugs on the corner, you are not going to see many people after being carried out.
