National Guard in DC
PBS contributor Jonathan Capehart claims that President Trump “used” the National Guard as “pawns” by sending them to Washington, DC “under the guise of crime.”
IN FACT, the murder rate in DC during 2024 was 4.5 times the average for U.S. metro areas. If the DC murder rate stays at that level, roughly 1 in every 51 people in the city will ultimately have their lives cut short by murder.
