Vance leans into DC crime fight in Georgia
Vice President JD Vance on Thursday took the White House's fiery crime crackdown on the road, casting another Black-led city in apocalyptic terms on a trip that was designed to tout tax cuts and other administration policies. Vance was in Peachtree City, Georgia, a purple Atlanta suburb, to sell the White House's One Big Beautiful Bill — since rebranded the Working Families Tax Cut — as a win for the working-class. Speaking from a refrigeration equipment manufacturer whose products end up in Chick-fil-A restaurants, the vice president extolled the GOP's marquee legislation for slashing taxes on tips and overtime and bolstering American manufacturing — the same messaging he's used during similar events this summer at a machine shop in Pennsylvania and a steel facility in Ohio, but now with a new name. But in the firehose of President Donald Trump's Washington, the megalaw — which Trump signed on July 4 — was no longer the story of the summer. Attention has since shifted to Trump's takeover of Washington, which the president celebrated by visiting National Guard troops and federal officers the same day his vice president was in Georgia. Vance decided to lean in. 'I want you to be able to go shopping, or go and get a nice meal with your family, without the fear that you're going to get mugged or even worse because you had the audacity to take your family out for a day in one of our great American cities,' Vance said. Trump and Vance have long described the country's urban centers — which tend to be deeply Democratic and ethnically diverse — as sites of danger, deviance and decay. Trump has referred to New York City, Los Angeles and Chicago — America's three most populous cities — as 'warzones.' And last week, when the president announced his crackdown on Washington, he put Baltimore, Maryland, and Oakland, California, on notice, saying 'they're so far gone.' 'We're not going to lose our cities over this,' Trump said. 'And this will go further. We're starting very strongly with D.C.' On Thursday, in Peachtree City, about 30 miles outside Atlanta, Vance painted the southern city as a place where families cower in fear of criminals and 'cross the street' to 'avoid a crazy person yelling.' 'Those are your streets, paid for with your tax dollars, and you ought to be able to use them like any other citizen of this country,' Vance said. The vice president acknowledged that the administration has focused on Washington because of Trump's unique power over it as a federal city, but said, 'We certainly hope, whether it's Atlanta or anywhere else, people are gonna look around and say, 'We don't have to live like this.'' Critics say Trump and Vance's rhetoric about urban crime has racial undertones, and the six cities he named explicitly in his news conference last week are led by Black mayors. But the White House is attempting to defend its position by slamming detractors for being white. When Vance, alongside Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and top White House aide Stephen Miller, were heckled by protesters Wednesday in Union Station, the vice president said they were 'old, primarily white people' who have 'never felt danger in their entire lives.' Vance continued that tactic Thursday. Bashing the racial justice protests in 2020, which led to major anti-police sentiment in the Democratic Party, Vance said it was 'disproportionately Black Atlantans who suffer the most from high violent crime.' Asked about the historical pain associated with homeless people who were swept off Atlanta's streets in preparation for the 1996 Summer Olympics, Vance first reminded the local reporter that he had been 12 years old at the time. 'I was worried about football and fishing,' he said. But, the vice president added, 'the question betrays the question of what we're trying to do, and what is the nature of true compassion.' 'Why have we convinced ourselves that it's compassionate to allow a person who's obviously a schizophrenic or suffering from some other mental illness, why is it compassionate to let that person fester in the streets?' he said. The 'compassionate thing to do,' Vance continued, was to 'get them in treatment, not to let them sit on the streets and yell at our people while they're walking by.' The vice president has spoken before about compassion in policy. He argued in January that 'your compassion belongs first to your fellow citizens,' citing an ancient Catholic concept called ordo amoris. The late Pope Francis later took issue with Vance's understanding of the concept in an unusual public rebuke of the Trump administration's immigration crackdown. Vance on Thursday appeared to blend his conception of compassion, passion for nativism and suggestion that people with generational roots in the country have a greater claim over its privileges of citizenship to sell a greater crime crackdown. 'This country was built by your grandparents, by your parents, by your forebearers — you ought to have the right to live a good life in this country,' he said. He added: 'The people who built Atlanta did not build it so that you would not be able to walk down the streets of Atlanta safely at night. They built it so you could enjoy it.'

3 GOP-led states sending National Guard troops to DC: What to know
Multiple Republican-led states are sending their own National Guard troops to the District of Columbia to bolster President Trump's sweeping anti-crime clampdown in the nation's capital. West Virginia Gov. Patrick Morrisey, South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster and Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine all announced over the weekend that they would send hundreds of soldiers from their states in the coming days to nearly double the 800 D.C. National Guard members already mobilized. All three GOP governors noted in their advisories that they were acting on requests from the Trump administration. 'West Virginia is proud to stand with President Trump in his effort to restore pride and beauty to our nation's capital,' Morrisey said in a statement. 'The men and women of our National Guard represent the best of our state, and this mission reflects our shared commitment to a strong and secure America.' The president announced a massive crime-fighting effort in Washington last week, with a federal takeover of the Metropolitan Police Department and infusion of federal agents and National Guard troops. 'Until 4 days ago, Washington, D.C., was the most unsafe 'city' in the United States, and perhaps the World,' Trump wrote in an update on Truth Social early Monday. 'Now, in just a short period of time, it is perhaps the safest, and getting better every single hour!' National Guard troops already in D.C. have been largely stationed on federal properties in the District, including parks and federal buildings. In a news release Sunday, the D.C. National Guard said its presence at the National Mall 'has drawn positive attention from civilians.' Meanwhile, officers from the FBI; Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives; Immigration and Customs Enforcement; and other agencies in the Department of Homeland Security have been among those spotted in popular areas. Attorney General Pam Bondi wrote on the social platform X on Monday morning that federal authorities made 137 arrests over the weekend, bringing the total arrests since the initiative began to more than 400. 'We are not slowing down,' she wrote. 'We are committed to making DC safe again!' Trump has set his sights on tackling crime in the capital, even as local officials have pushed back on characterizations of violent surges. According to the District's statistics, which Trump has deemed 'fake,' violent crime is down about 26 percent compared to this point last year. 'American soldiers and airmen policing American citizens on American soil is #UnAmerican,' D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser (D) wrote on social media Saturday night. The news of deployment from other states comes as national weather forecasters have warned that Hurricane Erin, the first major hurricane of the Atlantic season, could strengthen and cause high winds and flooding along the East Coast this week. 'Our National Guard will work to assist President Trump's mission, and should a hurricane or natural disaster threaten our state, they can and will be immediately recalled home to respond,' McMaster posted on social media Saturday evening.

Mississippi joining 3 other GOP-led states sending National Guard troops to DC
Mississippi on Monday became the fourth Republican-led state to announce plans to send National Guard troops to Washington to bolster President Trump's crackdown on crime in the nation's capital. 'I've approved the deployment of approximately 200 Mississippi National Guard Soldiers to Washington, D.C., to support President Trump's effort to return law and order to our nation's capital,' Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves (R) said in a post on the social platform X. 'Crime is out of control there, and it's clear something must be done to combat it,' he continued. 'Americans deserve a safe capital city that we can all be proud of. I know the brave men and women of our National Guard will do an excellent job enhancing public safety and supporting law enforcement.' West Virginia Gov. Patrick Morrisey (R), South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster (R) and Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine (R) all announced over the weekend they would send hundreds of soldiers from their states to nearly double the 800 D.C. National Guard members already mobilized. All three GOP governors said in their advisories they were acting on requests from the Trump administration.
