Tamara Jachym, mother of Eric Tarpinian-Jachym, a 21-year-old Congressional intern who was fatally shot in Washington, D.C. earlier this summer, has publicly expressed support for President Donald Trump's recent announcement to federalize the city in an effort to enhance public safety. Eric was killed during his internship in the nation's capital, an event that has underscored concerns about rising violence in Washington, D.C. In response, President Trump has initiated a crackdown aimed at securing the city and preventing similar tragedies. Tamara Jachym conveyed her relief and gratitude, stating that she felt her son's death had not been in vain following the President's actions. The incident and subsequent federal response have drawn attention to the challenges facing the capital, which President Trump described as having "really become a failure" in terms of safety.
