President Donald Trump is promising to announce new steps to tackle homelessness and crime in Washington at a 10 a.m. ET news conference just days after directing federal law enforcement agencies to increase their presence in Washington and suggesting the federal government could seize control of the city.

Trump in a social media post on Sunday declared that "the Homeless" in Washington, D.C., will "have to move out."

Vowing to “liberate” Washington, Trump said he would put an end to “the days of ruthlessly killing, or hurting, innocent people.”
