‘We Stand With The President’: DC Police Union Backs Trump’s Capital City Crime Crackdown

The DC Police Union announced on Monday that it is backing President Donald Trump’s efforts to combat crime in Washington, D.C.

The union in a statement to Fox5 said it “acknowledges and supports the President’s announcement … to assume temporary control of the MPD [Metropolitan Police Department of the District of Columbia] in response to the escalating crime crisis.” Union Chairman Gregg Pemberton said in a statement to WUSA that the nation’s capital “cannot continue on” its current trajectory with crime “out of control” and its police officers “stretched beyond their limits.” (RELATED: ‘We’re Taking It Back’: Trump Deploying National Guard To Streets Of Nation’s Capital)

“We stand with the President,” Pemberton emphasized.

The union chairman called Trump’s intervention “a critical stopgap,” but also emphasized a need for a change in “staffing and support,” which he said can happen only “by repealing the disastrous policies that have driven out our best officers and hindered recruitment.”

New: The DC Police Union is reacting to Trump’s federal takeover. The union says it “acknowledges and supports the President’s announcement this morning to assume temporary control of the MPD in response to the escalating crime crisis in Washington, DC.”

On Monday, Trump signed an Executive Order to deploy the National Guard to combat violent crime in the capital city, declaring a crime emergency in the District of Columbia.

The president called for homeless people in the district to be removed “FAR from the Capital” in a Sunday post to Truth Social.

The Trump administration’s mass crackdown on D.C. crime follows violent crimes in the district, such as the murder of two Israeli Embassy staffers in May, the fatal shooting of a 21-year-old Congressional intern in July and the brutal beating of young DOGE employee Edward Coristine in August.
