Reports show only about 22% of those picked up on immigration charges even had criminal records.<\/p>\n<p>Trump\u2019s move came after invoking Section 740 of the Home Rule Act, declaring a \u201ccrime emergency\u201d that gave his administration authority over D.C.\u2019s police. National Guard troops remain stationed across the city.<\/p>\n<p>Attorney General Pam Bondi also directed officials to revoke D.C.\u2019s sanctuary policies, forcing local police to cooperate with immigration enforcement. She argued the city\u2019s protections for undocumented immigrants \u201cmultiplied\u201d violent crime.<\/p>\n<p>For immigrant communities, the fear is real. Many now avoid work, limit travel, and live under the constant threat of detention. \u201cIt\u2019s created unimaginable fear,\u201d Rose added. Meanwhile, DHS praised its role online, boasting about removing \u201cdrug dealers, gang members, and criminal aliens\u201d from D.C. streets.<\/p>\n<article id=\"post-56164\" class=\"post-56164 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-uncategorized\">\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<p>Whether a model for other Democratic-led cities\u2014or a dangerous precedent\u2014remains to be seen.
