Reporter asks what Trump meant when he said he wanted to get rid of slums where criminals live (as well as requesting clarification of how much of this is immigration enforcement and a preview of the beautification part)

She says the “slums of Washington DC” refers to the most dangerous communities and neighborhoods and streets in the city “… which is why there has been a surge, despite what many of you have been falsely reporting, and I believe it was the Washington Post who put out a map claiming it to be fact-based when it was just based on, I don’t know, accounts that they’ve heard on the street, not actual statistics and data, so we went and reconfigured the numbers and as I said half, nearly half, of all the non-illegal alien related arrests have occurred in Wards 7 and 8 in the District of Columbia where we know there is the highest rate of crime.”

Then why are they sending all their troops to Georgetown?
 
Recall the Reagan Regime was tabbed: "The Reagan Revolution". Mark that down. "Revolution".
The events on Jan. 6, 2021 were supposedly a peaceful protest, but still, a continuation of the "Revolution". Make no mistake.
Sending troops to Georgetown? A continuation of the same "Revolution".

This was all scripted a long time ago.
 


“… Every day, the White House issues a summary of the previous night’s operation, including the number of arrests and some examples of arresting causes. Numbers of illegal firearms seized (68 overall as of Tuesday morning) and encampments cleared (48 overall) are included, too.

The Washington Post repeatedly reached out to the White House for the arrest records undergirding their statistics and has not received answers to questions about the specific details of each arrest.

[Feds won’t respond, DC police say White House has to provide the data, and then pointed to Mayor for DC police specific data but mayor doesn’t have arrest data]

… As a result, there’s a black hole instead of the usually readily accessible basic information surrounding an arrest. For example, when D.C. police make an arrest there will be a “Public Incident Report” — a public document that includes, among other things: the offense and its location and date and a short description of what happened. D.C. police continue to provide the reports for crimes in which local officers made the arrest, but refuse to answer questions about many of the arrests made by the multiagency federal task force teams, despite D.C. police officers being embedded within many of them.

… Between Aug. 7 and 19 last year, D.C. police alone made 667 arrests. It is unclear whether the numbers the White House is releasing each day include any D.C. police arrests or are solely limited to arrests made by federal officers.

… Federal officers have been seen around the District wearing masks while making arrests and driving off in unmarked cars — making it difficult to discern which agency could provide information about who was arrested, where they were taken and why.…”

“… The lack of specificity creates circumstances in which it is hard to say who is being arrested and who’s arresting them. Meanwhile, Trump continues to tout the progress of the operation — progress that, without publicly available arrest data, is difficult to measure….”
 

‘The city is dead’: D.C. restaurant reservations drop amid federal crackdown​

Local restaurant owners hope for a Restaurant Week boost, but the heavy law enforcement presence in the city is keeping some diners away.


“… It’s difficult to get an exact read on the state of D.C. dining since the federalization of local police. On the day of Trump’s announcement, the number of online reservations in Washington dining rooms dropped by 16 percent from the same date the previous year, according to OpenTable. Since then, reservations have dipped almost every day, falling as much as 31 percent in a single day compared to the same period in 2024. But on Monday, the first day of Restaurant Week, OpenTable reservations were up 29 percent compared to the same day the previous year.…”

Restaurant Week is a big deal in a lot of
Mid-sized cities. We’ll see how it all plays out.

Fake news. Trump has assured us in his tweets that people (Democrats even!) who were, before, too afraid to leave their homes are now coming out in droves to eat out. Surely, he wouldn’t lie.
 


“… The number is still expected to grow. But the role of the additional troops appears vague, and the answers to even basic questions, including whether they will be armed, have shifted.

… The places where the troops have been deployed so far tell part of the story. Most have been seen near the National Mall, large monuments and other tourist-heavy areas.

… The rules of engagement for the troops, at the moment, remain limited to supporting, but not providing, law enforcement. That means that troops are not making arrests, though Army officials acknowledged that could change if Mr. Trump decides that he wants an even more forceful presence.

… The decision to arm National Guard troops in Washington will be made by operational commanders on a mission-by-mission basis, Army officials said….”
