President Trump on Saturday touted his administration's moves to address violence and crime in the nation's capital, teasing that soon it would be "one of the safest" cities in the U.S.

Trump, in a post on Truth Social, said the administration would provide an update on Monday, after the president ordered federal law enforcement officials to patrol the streets in Washington over the next week.

"On Monday a Press Conference will be held at the White House which will, essentially, stop violent crime in Washington, D.C.," he wrote. "It has become one of the most dangerous cities anywhere in the World."

He added, "It will soon be one of the safest!!!"
