National Guard deployment to DC will last through Trump's term

President Donald Trump's extension of National Guard deployment in Washington, D.C., will last until January 20, 2029, or until his term ends. The deployment, initially ordered in August 2025 to address a declared crime emergency, faces criticism for high costs and controversy over armed soldiers on city streets. A National Guard member was fatally shot in November during the operation.
