The Democrats have had their time in the sun. Their policies have ruined American cities.
But that’s why Trump’s Pentagon has announced a task force that has Democrats trembling in fear.
Pentagon Prepares to Crush Urban Chaos in Democrat-Ruled Havens
The Pentagon is gearing up to form a specialized task force aimed at swiftly quelling riots and civil unrest in the nation’s beleaguered cities. This initiative comes as a direct response to the rampant disorder that has plagued urban areas under years of Democratic leadership, where soft-on-crime policies have turned once-vibrant metropolises into zones of fear and anarchy.
According to documents reviewed by The Washington Post, this new “Domestic Civil Disturbance Quick Reaction Force” would mobilize at least 600 National Guard troops, ready to deploy to hotspots within an hour’s notice. It’s a bold step that aligns perfectly with Trump’s long-standing emphasis on law and order, especially after his recent deployment of the National Guard to Washington, D.C., to combat surging crime in the capital.
Trump’s interest in clamping down on urban violence isn’t new; it’s a hallmark of his administration’s proactive stance against the lawlessness that Democrats have allowed to fester. During the chaotic Los Angeles riots in June, the Pentagon swiftly sent 2,000 National Guardsmen to restore peace amid violent protests against immigration enforcement—proving that decisive federal action works when local leaders fail.
The task force would divide into two 300-man units, one based in Arizona to handle disturbances west of the Mississippi River, and the other in Alabama for eastern responses. This strategic positioning ensures rapid intervention, preventing the kind of prolonged mayhem seen in cities like Portland and Chicago under Democratic mayors who prioritize protesters over public safety.
Funding for this essential program could begin as early as fiscal year 2027 through the Pentagon’s standard budgeting, with estimates suggesting costs in the hundreds of millions if military aircraft are involved. It’s a worthwhile investment in America’s future, especially when compared to the billions lost annually to crime and economic decay in blue cities.
Trump has consistently turned to the military to enforce order, notably deploying the National Guard during the destructive Black Lives Matter riots following George Floyd’s death in 2020. His actions then, as now, stand in stark contrast to the Biden-Harris era’s hands-off approach that emboldened criminals and rioters.
“The Department of Defense is a planning organization and routinely reviews how the department would respond to a variety of contingencies across the globe. We will not discuss these plans through leaked documents, pre-decisional or otherwise,” a defense official reporters.
Remember this point in history. Bringing law and order back to DC is a preview of what’s to come for every major city led and failed by Democrat leadership.
It’s simple, just enforce the law and bring order.

While the Pentagon remains tight-lipped on specifics, the need for such a force is crystal clear amid the chaos Democrats have unleashed in major cities. Take Chicago, where under Democratic control, violent crime has skyrocketed, with carjackings and shootings becoming daily headlines as progressive policies handcuff police and empower gangs.
In San Francisco, liberal leadership has presided over a descent into lawlessness, with rampant shoplifting, open drug use, and homeless encampments turning streets into no-go zones— a direct result of defunding the police and decriminalizing petty crimes that escalate into major threats.
New York City, once a symbol of urban revival, has seen crime rates climb under Mayor Eric Adams and his Democratic predecessors, with subway assaults and retail theft surging despite promises to curb the tide—proving that half-measures from left-wing officials only worsen the problem.
Portland exemplifies the failure of Democrat governance, where antifa-fueled riots in 2020 spiraled into months of unchecked violence, arson, and attacks on federal buildings, all while local leaders demonized law enforcement and slashed police budgets.
The “defund the police” movement, championed by Democrats in the wake of 2020 protests, has directly fueled this crime crisis, leading to staffing shortages and morale plunges in departments across mid-sized and major cities, resulting in spikes in homicides and violent offenses.
Data reveals that violent crime soared 43% under Biden from 2020 to 2022, reversing a 17% drop during Trump’s first term, as blue cities grappled with the fallout from anti-police rhetoric and budget cuts that left communities vulnerable.
Experts point to how these progressive experiments have gripped Democrat-run urban centers with homelessness, drug epidemics, and unchecked criminality, eroding public trust and driving residents and businesses away in droves.
