💨 Abstract

The White House announced an increased federal law enforcement presence in Washington, D.C., to combat crime for at least the following week. This decision follows repeated claims by President Trump about rising violence and crime in the city. The move comes after a recent attack on a prominent government efficiency official. Agencies involved include several federal law enforcement entities and local police forces. The initiative aims to make criminals less likely to evade capture, and will last seven days, with potential extensions.
