Hey Danger Corps,
Donald Trump has seized control of Washington, D.C.’s police force under Section 740 of the Home Rule Act, deploying the National Guard and federal law enforcement to the streets in what he’s calling “Liberation Day.” His justification? An alleged crime crisis in the nation’s capital, despite official Metropolitan Police data showing violent crime is down 26%, robberies down 28%, sexual abuse down 50%, and overall crime at a 30-year low. Local leaders and residents have made it clear: there is no public safety emergency. This is about control, not protection.
The timing is hard to ignore. Trump is facing a political firestorm over the still-unreleased Jeffrey Epstein files, a tanking economy from his tariffs, and sagging approval on immigration. By manufacturing a “security crisis” in D.C., he’s shifting headlines away from those vulnerabilities, using troops and federal power as props in a political performance. For many, this is a dangerous escalation, authoritarian theater designed to distract, intimidate, and tighten his grip on power while the real story stays buried.
Let’s not let this distraction stop us from demanding the release of the files!
Expose the truth!!
