<p><span style="font-weight:400">Washington, D.C., Mayor Muriel Bowser reportedly left the city for Martha’s Vineyard as President Donald Trump’s crackdown on crime in the nation’s capital continues.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400">Bowser said in a social media post that she has gone to attend to a family obligation, to pick up her daughter, and will return to the district on Friday. Bowser did not confirm her whereabouts.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400">“I’m both a mom and mayor, raising a delightful 7 year old on my own. This week, I cancelled a scheduled family trip to lead our city’s crisis management efforts. I also made the more difficult decision to not disrupt my daughter’s camp plans,” said Bowser in a </span><a href="https://x.com/MayorBowser/status/1956116704351936598" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight:400">post</span></a><span style="font-weight:400"> on X.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400">“I needed to get to her on Wednesday after work and bring her home, which I will do tomorrow. I am in constant contact with my senior team and have been in constant consultation with our partners throughout a short swing out of the District,” she said.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400">The mayor has left her city for Martha’s Vineyard, a posh enclave in Massachusetts, according to </span><a href="https://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/dcs-mayor-on-marthas-vineyard-trip-after-trumps-police-takeover/3975311/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight:400">NBC Washington</span></a><span style="font-weight:400">. Trump boosted a report of the mayor’s absence from Washington in a </span><a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/115028916499622190" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight:400">post</span></a><span style="font-weight:400"> on Truth Social.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400">Trump has used emergency authority granted to the president under the 1973 Home Rule Act to take control of Washington’s police force while surging federal resources into the district as well, including National Guard troops. The president has promised to “liberate” D.C. from a plague of crime and homelessness.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight:400">“Because the Democrat Government of D.C. has largely stopped investigating, arresting, and prosecuting most Crime, the published statistics don’t even capture a fraction of the actual Violence. No one is arrested for shoplifting. Citizens living in fear have largely given up on calling the Police, instead choosing not to walk the streets after dark, essentially becoming captive prisoners in their own City,” Trump said in a Truth </span><a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/115024069066734919" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight:400">post</span></a><span style="font-weight:400"> on Wednesday.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400">“The REAL Crime Rates are probably five to ten times what has been reported. D.C. has been under siege from thugs and killers, but now, D.C. is back under Federal Control where it belongs. The White House is in charge. The Military and our Great Police will liberate this City, scrape away the filth, and make it safe, clean, habitable and beautiful once more!” he continued.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400">Under Trump’s direction, the D.C. police have begun </span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-effect-d-c-police-break-from-sanctuary-city-policies-will-cooperate-with-ice" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight:400">working</span></a><span style="font-weight:400"> closely with Immigration and Customs Enforcement to crack down on illegal aliens in the district.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400">Federal law enforcement have already made dozens of arrests in the district since Trump announced his crackdown on crime on Monday. Tuesday alone saw 43 people </span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/d-c-will-be-safe-again-feds-kick-off-trumps-violent-crime-crackdown-with-over-100-arrests" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight:400">detained</span></a><span style="font-weight:400"> by federal agents.</span></p>
