Homan Says Trump Has ‘No Limitation’ in Power to Make Country Safe

Federal agencies and the National Guard are enforcing crime and homelessness reductions, with violent crime down 26% this year, according to local officials and law enforcement.

  • In 2025, President Trump placed Washington, D.C.'s Metropolitan Police Department under federal control to tackle rising crime in the nation's capital.
  • This action followed reports of unsafe conditions in D.C., including statements that it is not safe to walk the streets at night, despite claims crime is down.
  • Trump announced plans to reform crime legislation in Washington and other major cities, aiming for the capital to set an example of safety comparable to his border initiatives.
  • Violent crime in D.C. fell 26% compared to last year, and crime is at its lowest this century, though critics call the federalization an unjustified power grab.
  • The federal takeover and proposed crime law reforms signal an attempt to improve safety amid political disagreement about crime severity and control.
