@cbsnews: Asked whether the Trump administration’s crackdown on crime in D.C. is an example of federal overreach or overdue action, Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC) says “both of those can be accurate.” “The D.C. leadership has allowed the crime problem to get worse. They should be held accountable to that, but where do we stop?” Tillis tells CBS News’ Major Garrett on “The Takeout.” Tillis adds, “I don’t know if we should be deploying people who want to serve in the National Guard — and if necessary, answer to the call to defend this country — to go in and deal with policy failures of the D.C. city council.” #dc #washingtondc #military #crime #news
Yay, Republicans always grow a sense of civic responsibility once they're leaving office.

crime is a problem in this country but the national guard isn't the solution. PS why doesn't the administration do any of this in red states?? Where are the ice home depot raids in Texas??

Actually the crime in DC has improved dramatically. Trump just wants an excuse to take credit for the improvement.

No, the United States military is now policing its owns citizens. They should be ashamed and they lost all respect I once had for any military person. They are all MAGA now.

Crime in DC has decreased by 26% this year and is the lowest of the last 20 years. This has no relationship with crime and is exclusively to crush protests.

crime is at a 30 year low in DC, it's not even comparable to rates of crime in other cities (most of them in Red states)

If the Democratic Party deployed the national guard into conservative cities, MAGA would melt down. It’s plain wrong. True patriots, left right and center, abhor this administration.

D.C. is under federal jurisdiction. So even though all those crime ridden cities should be cleaned up it stops in D.C. most likely.

This guy speaks just like a democrat, it doesn’t make sense he’s part of the Republican Party still though?
