National Guard patrols Washington, DC
Pedestrian and car traffic pass DC National Guard troops patroling Union Station, in Washington, D.C., U.S., on August 19, 2025. Trump announced the National Guard deployment and federalization of D.C. police takeover August 11, falsely claiming 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. National Guard troops from other states will soon deploy to the capital. (Photo by Allison Bailey/NurPhoto)
