Why is Trump deploying the military to push out the US capital's unhoused? | DW News

Some of the 800 National Guard troops deployed by US President Donald Trump to Washington, D.C., have started to arrive. It comes a day after he ordered federal forces to take control of the US capital's police, citing what he said was a crime emergency. But city leaders have pointed to data showing violent crime is declining and is now at a 30-year low. Trump issued a presidential order to address Washington D.C.’s "bedlam and squalor" and has vowed to "clean up" the city’s homeless and told them to move out "immediately." Experts argue that solutions – which are not adequately funded – exist to address homelessness, and that forcibly moving them to remote locations, without improving shelters, will not have a positive effect.
