United States Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro shared a great update on the Trump administration's push to clean up the streets of our nation's capital, noting that an approach to crime that actually arrests and jails criminals makes streets safer for law-abiding citizens. 

"Here I am in D.C.," Pirro says, "and we're still talking about the surge. It's been a little over three months, from August 7th to November 17, and the number of arrests are 6,362. The number of guns seized are 610 guns."

"Now, you've got to put that into perspective and I'm going to do that by comparing the numbers from what it was in 2023," Pirro continues. "The violent crimes were 60 percent higher in 2023 than they are right now as a result of the surge. Carjackings in 2023 were 80 percent higher. Homicides were 72 percent higher. And violent gun crimes were 75 percent higher." Read more and see Xs and videos here.

The other unit at the power plant, which was renamed the Crane Clean Energy Center, closed in 1979 after an accident.

The $1 billion loan was issued by the Energy Department's Loan...Read  more here.
