Federal agents in Trump’s crime crackdown set up checkpoint in popular D.C. nightlife area

In Washington, D.C., law enforcement set up a police checkpoint in the U Street corridor as part of President Trump’s directive to combat crime, prompting over 100 protesters to gather, some warning drivers to avoid the area. While the increased police presence has received mixed reactions, with some residents supporting the crackdown and others criticizing Trump’s actions, the National Guard has been activated to assist, although their visibility at the checkpoint was minimal.
