‘Please, Donald Trump’: Fox’s Ainsley Earhardt Begs Prez to Send National Guard Troops to New York
Fox & Friends co-host Ainsley Earhardt pleaded with President Donald Trump to send the National Guard to New York, saying the Big Apple’s streets need to be cleaned by troops.
After playing a clip of Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson decrying the Trump administration’s plans to deploy soldiers to the Windy City as part of the president’s anti-crime crackdown, Earhardt and co-hosts Brian Kilmeade and Charlie Hurt agreed that it worked in Chicago and would work elsewhere.
“I just don’t understand why they wouldn’t want to clean up these cities,” Earhardt said. “I mean, D.C. needed to be cleaned up. It looks like it has been.”
Hurt added: “Over 200 people were killed in past year and [Johnson] is beating his chest, saying, ‘Oh, isn’t this great?'”
Earhardt then said that if Chicago doesn’t want the National Guard in the city, she knows where they can go instead.
“Fine, you don’t want ’em? Send ’em to New York, please,” she said. “Please, Donald Trump, send ’em here. Clean up these streets. I welcome it.”

CHARLIE HURT: We can have all kinds of debates, constitutional debates, all kinds of debates about sending federal troops into cities like this. But, to worry about tyranny and not be concerned about the tyranny of lawlessness and the tyranny of crime that all of his residents live under.
AINSLEY EARHARDT: I just don’t understand why they wouldn’t want to clean up these cities. I mean, D.C. needed to be cleaned up. It looks like it has been.
HURT: Over 200 people were killed in past year and is he beating his chest, saying, “Oh, isn’t this great?”
EARHARDT: Ninety-three arrests on Saturday, and out of those, 46 were illegal aliens and that’s in D.C. Fine, you don’t want ’em? Send ’em to New York, please. Please, Donald Trump, send ’em here. Clean up these streets. I welcome it.
Trump has declared victory in the fight against crime in D.C., posting to Truth Social Thursday that the district is “SAFE AGAIN.”

The next day, Trump claimed from the Oval Office that “African-American ladies, beautiful ladies” in Chicago are begging him to stage a D.C.-style crime crackdown there.
