Tennessee has sent 160 National Guard troops to Washington, D.C., as President Donald Trump and the White House continue to push their crime fighting directive.

The White House is pushing back against criticism that the federal takeover of D.C.’s police department is not focusing on the high-crime areas of D.C.

Troop deployments and patrols in downtown areas got the most attention, but life in historically diverse neighborhoods was reshaped as well.

The New Jersey Democrat charged that Trump’s push to clean up DC and end sanctuary city policies “show us each and every day how much of a bigot he is.”

The city’s Attorney General Brian Schwalb filed a lawsuit calling for an emergency restraining order to block the move, accusing the Trump Administration of implementing a “hostile takeover” of the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) that would lead to “imminent, irreparable harm”.
