What’s Really Going On

Trump’s latest stunt — announcing he will “take over” D.C. police and deploy the National Guard to “fight crime” — is nothing more than a dress rehearsal to advance Fascism.

  • Invent a crisis to grab headlines and scare the public.

  • Ignore the facts — in reality, violent crime in D.C. is down 26% compared to last year.

  • Hide the truth — the D.C. U.S. Attorney’s Office announced earlier this year that violent crime is at a 30-year low.

  • Create the problem they claim to solve — the GOP-led House has been holding up $1 billion in local D.C. tax revenue for months, gutting funds for police, schools, sanitation, and public services.

  • Use military force for political gain — deploying the National Guard in a city that is not in crisis risks escalating tension and diverting resources from real needs.

This is not about public safety — it’s about consolidating control, manufacturing fear, and distracting from the administration’s failures and abuses of power.
