DC Arrests: White House Reports 300 in 10 Days, Sparking Skepticism
Since the federal enforcement strategy began just over a week ago, over 300 arrests have been made by federal officers in Washington, D.C. The operation has resulted in the seizure of 53 firearms, and nearly half of the arrests have been of undocumented immigrants. Arrests have been made for a range of offenses, including aggravated assault and possession of illegal weapons. Approximately 1,500 National Guard troops are involved in the operation, with the stated goals of deterring violent crime and providing a safe environment for law enforcement.
