Armed troops patrol Washington, DC
Armed National Guard troops prepare to resume patrol at the Lincoln Memorial after enjoying a park ranger talk on the memorial, in Washington, D.C., U.S., on August 26, 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 National Guard deployment, but violent crime in D.C. has dropped 26% in 2025, to a 30-year low.
