#Trump’s rhetoric about #DC echoes a history of #racist narratives about urban crime
By MATT BROWN
Updated 11:30 AM EDT, August 12, 2025Excerpt: "As D.C. the #NationalGuard arrived at their headquarters Tuesday, for many residents, the prospect of federal troops surging into #neighborhoods represented an alarming violation of local agency. To some, it echoes uncomfortable historical chapters when politicians used language to paint historically or predominantly #BlackCities and [#BlackNeighborhoods] with racist narratives to shape public opinion and justify aggressive police action."

#Trump's #takeover of #WashingtonDC law enforcement begins as #NationalGuard troops arrive
ASHRAF KHALIL and LINDSAY WHITEHURST, Tue, August 12, 2025
WASHINGTON (AP) — "The new picture of law enforcement in the nation’s capital began taking shape Tuesday as some of the 800 National Guard members deployed by the Trump administration began arriving. The city’s police and federal officials, projecting cooperation, took the first steps in an uneasy partnership to reduce crime in what President Trump called — without substantiation — a lawless city.
"The influx came the morning after the Republican president announced he would be activating the guard members and taking over the District's police department, something the law allows him to do temporarily. He cited a crime emergency — but referred to the same crime that city officials stress is already falling noticeably.
"Mayor #MurielBowser pledged to work alongside the federal officials Trump has tasked with overseeing the city's law enforcement, while insisting the police chief remained in charge of the department and its officers.
" 'How we got here or what we think about the circumstances — right now we have more police, and we want to make sure we use them,' she told reporters.
"The tone was a shift from the day before, when Bowser said Trump's plan to take over the Metropolitan Police Department and call in the National Guard was not a productive step and argued his perceived state of emergency simply doesn’t match the declining crime numbers. Still, the law gives the federal government more sway over the capital city than in U.S. states, and Bowser said her administration's ability to push back is limited."
