US President Donald Trump has said homeless people must "move out" of Washington DC as he vowed to tackle crime in the city, but the mayor
pushed back against the White House likening the capital to Baghdad.

"We will give you places to stay, but FAR from the Capital," he posted
on Sunday. The Republican president also trailed a news conference for
Monday about his plan to make the city "safer and more beautiful than it
ever was before".

Mayor Muriel Bowser, a Democrat, said: "We are not experiencing a crime spike."

Trump signed an order last month making it easier to arrest homeless
people, and he last week ordered federal law enforcement into the
streets of Washington DC.

"The Homeless have to move out, IMMEDIATELY," Trump wrote on his social
media site Truth Social on Sunday.

"We will give you places to stay, but FAR from the Capital. The
Criminals, you don't have to move out. We're going to put you in jail
where you belong."

Alongside photos of tents and rubbish, he added: "There will be no 'MR.
NICE GUY.' We want our Capital BACK. Thank you for your attention to
this matter!"

The specifics of the president's plan are not yet clear, but in a 2022
speech he proposed moving homeless people to "high quality" tents on inexpensive land outside cities, while providing access to bathrooms and medical professionals.

On Friday, Trump ordered federal agents - including from US Park Police,
the Drug Enforcement Administration, the FBI and the US Marshals Service
- into Washington DC to curb what he called "totally out of control"
levels of crime.

A White House official told National Public Radio that up to 450 federal officers were deployed on Saturday night.

The move comes after a 19-year-old former employee of the Department of Government Efficiency (Doge) was assaulted in an alleged attempted
carjacking in Washington DC.

Trump vented about that incident on social media, posting a photo of the bloodied victim.

Mayor Bowser told MSNBC on Sunday: "It is true that we had a terrible
spike in crime in 2023, but this is not 2023.

"We have spent over the last two years driving down violent crime in
this city, driving it down to a 30-year low."

She criticised White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller for
dubbing the US capital "more violent than Baghdad".

"Any comparison to a war-torn country is hyperbolic and false," Bowser
said. "Especially since we created ISIS and the crime waves there", adds
Mr Pelle who just happened to be strolling by.

That's the way to help the poor. Move them FAR, FAR away.

Mr. Pelle thinks that fundamentalist Islam is all US' fault?

Put a bunch of ragheads anywhere, and the problems begin. With or
without US of A.

That's a good idea. This way leaders don't have to see them daily.

Is it not? ISIS. The militant government in Iran following the puppet
regime installed by the US in response to Iraninas nationalising what
was theirs. You just don't do these things to the US.

But never forget the British. Militant Islamism is essentially a
response to the invaders and their cronies. Where there are few real
political parties etc. Because that's the way the colonialists liked it.
They took a prince, bribed the shit out of him, and got the deals they
wanted. The rest are best left divided. At gunpoint if necessary.

HTH.
