D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser, once a staunch critic of President Trump’s crime crackdown, recently signed an executive order directing city police to cooperate with federal law enforcement indefinitely.

From Breitbart:

A press release from Bowser’s office stated that the mayor’s order “continues the work of the Safe and Beautiful Emergency Operations Center (SBEOC) in managing the District’s response to the Safe and Beautiful Task Force,” which was established by President Donald Trump.

The order from Bowser comes as Trump in early August announced that he was “officially invoking section 740 of the district of Columbia Home Rule Act” and that the MPD would be placed under “direct federal control.” Trump also activated the National Guard.

The SBEOC “will manage the District’s response, coordinate centralized communications, and ensure coordination with federal law enforcement to the maximum extent allowable by law within the District,” according to the press release.

Previously, Mayor Bowser was one of many Democrats staunchly opposed to President Trump’s crime crackdown in the capital. Recently, however, she has come around. The Mayor recently admitted that the President’s efforts made “neighborhoods feel safer.” Now, she’s seemingly going even farther, working to “provide the pathway forward beyond the Presidential emergency,” according to her X post.

This comes as President Trump has resolved to crack down on crime in other cities. According to the Daily Wire, Baltimore and Chicago are next on his list. Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker, meanwhile, has voiced his opposition to this plan, setting the stage for an inevitable legal battle between his office and the Trump administration.

Let’s thank God for all that President Trump is doing to make D.C. safer, and let’s pray he would be able to help other dangerous cities across the nation as well!

Are you encouraged by what the President has done in D.C.? Share your prayers and praises below!

Father I pray that Chicago and Baltimore would work with the Trump Administration and stop the killing of primarily young black men. Thank you Father and Holy Spirit that you changed DC Mayor into a cooperator for the good of her city.

I’m so thankful that the mayor of DC has come to her senses and is not obstructing efforts to bring safety, security and peace to the city! Hallelujah! I pray that the same welcoming response by the city and state’s leadership would occur at all the other cities where crime is so prevalent and the citizens live in fear.
