US EditionTrump says Chicago next up for federal crime crackdown
Following a reported 22% drop in violent crime in Washington, D.C., President Trump plans to deploy National Guard troops to Chicago to continue federal crime reduction efforts.
- On August 22, 2025, President Donald Trump announced from the Oval Office that Chicago is expected to become the next focus of federal efforts aimed at addressing crime, homelessness, and illegal immigration.
- Trump attributed this move to Chicago's growing danger under Mayor Brandon Johnson, whom he called incompetent, and stated residents are "screaming for us to come."
- Trump compared Chicago’s impending intervention to his recent deployment of 2,000 troops and National Guard forces in Washington, D.C., where he credited federal presence with crime reductions despite ongoing investigations into police data practices.
- He mentioned that in Chicago, people are wearing red hats with slogans supporting him and that African-American women there are expressing a strong desire for President Trump to visit the city.
- The announcement suggests a continuation of federal law enforcement efforts in major cities run by Democrats with majority-minority populations, though state officials express uncertainty about the form or arrival of any federal intervention force in Chicago.
