With the goal of curbing the crime rate operating in the nation's capital, the 79-year-old Republican decided to deploy federal agents to assist local police, who in their view are no longer capable of stopping criminals.

President Trump has ordered an increased presence of federal law enforcement to protect innocent citizens.

Starting tonight, there will be no safe haven for violent criminals in Washington, D.C.

President Trump is committed to making our nation's capital safer for its residents, lawmakers, and visitors from around the world, said White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt.

In a statement issued to NewsNation, Stephen Miller referred to Washington as a more violent area compared to other foreign places engulfed in war.

“It’s more violent than Baghdad, it’s more violent than parts of Ethiopia, and it’s more violent than other dangerous places in the world,” he said.

Contradictorily, reports released by local authorities over the past year show violent crime in the district dropping to its lowest level in three decades.

However, the skilled 39-year-old Californian supports President Trump’s idea that security in the nation’s capital needs to be strengthened.

“The president has been very clear that he will take the necessary measures to protect Washington for the people who live here and for all Americans who visit,” he said.

The truth is that, since Trump’s return to the White House, has continued to pressure Democratic Mayor Muriel Bowser to submit and implement several actions aimed at removing homeless people from the streets or facilitating the arrests of immigrants by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
