Trump holds the DC crime press conference in the White House in the middle of Fed’s takeover

President Donald Trump is expected to organize a press conference at the White House on Monday to discuss crime in Washington. DC, while federal agents are deployed in the streets.

The press conference is scheduled at 10:00 a.m. in the White House briefing room. Trump said on Social Networks on Sunday that the press conference on crime and “embellishment” will not only imply putting an end to crime, murder and death in the capital of our country, but also to cleanliness and general physical renovation and our condition of our formerly beautiful and well -maintained capital. “

“We are not going to allow people to spend 3.1 billion dollars to repair a building, such as the federal reserve, which could have been done in a much more elegant and sensitive way for 50 to 100 million dollars,” wrote Trump on Truth Social. “The renovation would have been better, and we would have saved $ 3 billion, traffic jams and endless construction.”

Trump described the mayor of DC Muriel Bowser – who publicly faced Trump during the riots of George Floyd in 2020 – “A good person who tried, but she received many chances, and the crime figures, and the city is only becoming dirty and less attractive”.

“The American public will no longer bear it,” wrote the president. “Just as I took care of the border, where you had no illegal that met last month, from millions in the previous year, I will take care of our cherished capital, and we will, really, still great!

The president rekindled his warnings concerning a takeover of the federal government of Washington and said that he could even deploy the National Guard for the recent crime.

“The local members of” young people “and gangs, only some 14, 15 and 16 years old, attack, aggravate, mutilate and shoot innocent citizens at random, knowing at the same time that they will be almost immediately released,” wrote Trump. “They are not afraid of the police because they know that nothing ever happens to them, but it will happen now!”
