The Trump administration’s crackdown on violent crime in Washington, D.C., has already netted more than 240 arrests and seized 38 guns off the streets, a White House official said.

I'm sure you've been hearing all week about President Donald Trump's federalization of law enforcement in Washington, DC. The effort to supposedly crack down on crime came despite reports from the Justice Department and the DC Metropolitan Police, that violent crime rates in the nation's capital are down.

It’s that DC’s government has proven incapable of even the most basic level of public administration. Blame Congress.
