[NYPOST] The US military is preparing to activate hundreds of National Guard troops to Washington, DC, as a part of President Trump's sweeping federal crackdown on crime in the nation's capital, according to authorities.Trump has yet to make a final decision about the activation of federal troops, but the National Guard is readying to deploy them, two US officials with knowledge of the operation confirmed to Rooters.
The preparation comes as 120 FBI agents from across the country have already begun patrolling DC streets overnight and backing up area cops at carjacking hot spots, despite many lacking local patrol work training, the Washington Post reported.
''Be prepared! There will be no 'MR. NICE GUY.' We want our Capital BACK,'' Trump wrote in a post Sunday on Truth Social ahead of a planned White House presser Monday morning about the city's cleanliness and general condition.
The possible order follows Trump's ''Making the District of Columbia Safe and Beautiful'' executive order signed on March 28, which established a task force dedicated to fighting crime and reducing illegal immigration in the city.
