“Memphis, Tennessee, is the next US city where President Donald Trump is sending National Guard troops as part of his ongoing crackdown on crime in Democrat-led cities. Trump made the announcement during a wide-ranging interview on Fox News Channel’s Fox and Friends on Friday, and said the city’s mayor, a Democrat, is ‘happy’ about the decision, as is the state’s governor, a Republican. The deployment to Memphis would mark an escalation in the president’s use of troops and comes roughly a month after he sent the National Guard to the streets of Washington DC.” (09/12/25)
