Bill Lee visiting the Oval Office, calling what\u2019s coming a \u201creplica of our extraordinarily successful efforts\u201d in Washington.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That was a reference to last month, when the president deployed National Guard troops to the nation\u2019s capital and federalized the city\u2019s police force in a crackdown he has since argued reduced crime.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<aside class=\"smg-interstitial-link wp-block-smg-interstitial-link\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/militarytimes\/news\/your-military\/2025\/09\/12\/troops-in-dc-encounter-few-crises-but-plenty-of-walking-and-yard-work\/\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/AP25240548052490.jpg.jpg?w=300\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__image wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__content\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"smg-interstitial-link__kicker\">Related<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"smg-interstitial-link__title\">Troops in DC encounter few crises, but plenty of walking and yard work<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"smg-interstitial-link__excerpt\">Dozens of troops who spoke to Military Times view their current deployment as \u201cpart of the job,\u201d but say they haven\u2019t seen \u201cemergency\u201d levels of crime.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\t\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump said that, in addition to troops, the push in Memphis would involve officials from various federal agencies, including the FBI, Drug Enforcement Administration, Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the U.S. Marshall\u2019s service: \u201cWe\u2019re sending in the big force now.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Shortly before Trump\u2019s announcement, the White House said on social media that the Memphis total crime rate was higher than the national average and suggested that the rate had increased since last year, bucking national trends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That\u2019s despite Memphis police recently reporting decreases across every major crime category in the first eight months of 2025 compared to the same period in previous years. Overall crime hit a 25-year low, while murder hit a six-year low, police said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Despite the overall decrease, Memphis has dealt with stubborn gun violence problems for years. In 2023, the city set a record with more than 390 homicides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tennessee\u2019s governor embraced the troop deployment as part of a broader law enforcement surge in Memphis. \u201cLee said Monday that he was \u201ctired of crime holding the great city of Memphis back.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump first suggested he\u2019d be deploying the National Guard to Memphis on Friday, drawing pushback from the Democratic leader of Memphis, which is majority Black.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI did not ask for the National Guard, and I don\u2019t think it\u2019s the way to drive down crime,\u201d Mayor Paul Young told a news conference Friday while acknowledging the city remained high on too many \u201cbad lists.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Speculation had centered on Chicago as Trump\u2019s next city to send in the National Guard and other federal authorities. But the administration has faced fierce resistance from Democratic Illinois J.B. Pritzker and other local authorities.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<aside class=\"smg-interstitial-link wp-block-smg-interstitial-link\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/militarytimes\/news\/your-military\/2025\/09\/02\/president-says-he-will-deploy-national-guard-troops-to-chicago\/\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/AP25240548052490.jpg.jpg?w=300\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__image wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__content\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"smg-interstitial-link__kicker\">Related<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"smg-interstitial-link__title\">President says he will deploy National Guard troops to Chicago<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"smg-interstitial-link__excerpt\">President Trump says he will deploy the National Guard to Chicago to help with crime in the city.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\t\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump said Monday, \u201cWe\u2019re going to be doing Chicago probably next\u201d but also suggested that authorities would wait and not act immediately there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe want to save these places,\u201d Trump said.
