The Trump administration has reported the arrest of more than 300,000 undocumented migrants in the first six months of 2025. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt described this figure as a clear success, noting that nearly 70% of these arrests involved criminal offenses. Concurrently, President Trump has initiated a federal takeover of the Washington D.C. police department to address rising crime in the nation's capital. Since the crackdown began, approximately 850 federal officers and agents have been deployed, resulting in over 100 arrests within six days. On the first night alone, 23 arrests were made on charges including homicide, firearm offenses (with six illegal guns seized), possession with intent to distribute narcotics, lewd acts, stalking, drunk driving, and fare evasion. In a recent operation, law enforcement made 45 arrests in a single night, including 29 related to immigration violations and 16 connected to violent crimes, along with three firearm seizures. The White House emphasized that Washington D.C. will be a sanctuary only for law-abiding citizens as part of this intensified law enforcement effort.
