Demonstration against federal takeover of DC police
People protest the federalization of police, deployment of the National Guard and federal law enforcement agents, and clearing of unhoused encampments in Washington, D.C., U.S., on August 16, 2025. US. President Donald Trump cited the false claim that violent crime is at an all-time high in the nation's capital to justify these actions. Violent crime in D.C. has dropped 26% in 2025, reaching a 30-year low. (Photo by Allison Bailey/NurPhoto)
