Trump announces 'liberation day plan' to crush 'bloodshed and bedlam' in DC
SUMMARY
President Donald Trump announced a "Liberation Day" plan to take federal control of the Washington, D.C. police department and deploy National Guard troops. At a press conference, he expressed his intent to combat crime and restore order in the city.
"We're going to take our Capitol back," Trump stated, emphasizing a crackdown on violence and homelessness. Citing recent violent incidents, he vowed to empower federal agents to act aggressively against criminals.
Trump criticized D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser’s handling of crime and hinted at legislation to federalize the city, though such action would require congressional approval and is unlikely to succeed.
