Violent crime doesn't worry me. Trump is just mad he has to see homeless people.

In my daily life, the types of crime I'm concerned about are scams, fraud, cybercrime and hate crimes. We live in a pretty safe town. We are a beach community of about 100,000 people. Does that mean I would let my 15-year-old walk home at night by themselves? No. Would I not lock my doors and my vehicle? No. It is just common sense. Despite President Donald Trump saying his actions were meant to "rescue our nation's capital from crime," I don't think violent crime in Washington, DC, is as big of an issue as he's making it. As for Trump specifically, I don't think a convicted felon should be president. What type of crime concerns you? Share your thoughts here. | Opinion Forum Another view: Trump's order on homelessness is more humane than failed liberal policies | Opinion I don't live in Washington, so I can't say how residents feel about their safety. I would imagine that it's got more crime than my community simply for the size of it and the fact that so many people come and go, but I honestly don't think it's bedlam and mayhem in the streets. Trump is just mad because he sees homeless people on his way to the golf course. If he truly cared about homelessness and bedlam in the streets, he would be funding housing and programs to help with addiction and mental health – not bringing in the National Guard and relocating unhoused people. I'm not worried about violent crime in America. You just have to know your surroundings and use common sense. — Martha Payne, Ventura, California This piece was submitted as part of USA TODAY's Forum, a new space for conversation.

Trump's DC Takeover Thrusts Federal Agents Into Unfamiliar Roles

Federal agents assigned to patrol Washington as part of the federal takeover of the US capital are taking on duties that fall outside their usual jobs, provoking consternation that they've been diverted from work they were trained for to tasks they've never done. Some federal officials said agents have been pulled from specialized assignments and placed into unfamiliar field roles, with little clarity on who is directing operations or what the metrics for success will be. Others said they worried about the lack of defined rules, coordination, and clear exit timelines.
