Former U.S. President Donald J. Trump published a series of posts on his Truth Social account on August 11, 2025, focusing on the state of Washington, D.C., and referencing broader national issues.
In one post dated August 11, 2025, Trump wrote: "Washington, D.C. will be LIBERATED today! Crime, Savagery, Filth, and Scum will DISAPPEAR. I will, MAKE OUR CAPITAL GREAT AGAIN! The days of ruthlessly killing, or hurting, innocent people, are OVER! I quickly fixed the Border".
Another post from the same day read: "Donald J. Trump Truth Social 08.11.25 07:36 AM EST https://t.co/E8gpJtfByB".
A third post was also shared on August 11: "Donald J. Trump Truth Social 08.11.25 08:05 AM EST https://t.co/TRnnA8jj6t".
These statements come as crime rates and public safety in Washington, D.C., have been topics of national discussion in recent years. Trump's reference to border security reflects ongoing debates about immigration policy and enforcement during and after his presidency.
