National Guard patrols Washington, DC train station
A member of the DC National Guard patrols Union Station, as the U.S. Capitol stands in the distance, in Washington, D.C., U.S., on August 14, 2025. U.S. President Donald Trump announced the Guard deployment earlier in the week, claiming incorrectly that violent crime is at an all-time high in the capital city. Violent crime has dropped 26 percent in 2025, reaching a 30-year low. (Photo by Allison Bailey/NurPhoto)
