Fox News favorite Ainsley Earhardt has made it clear: she wants President Donald Trump’s bold action in Washington, D.C. to be brought to New York City.
The Fox & Friends co-host, speaking passionately on air, praised Trump’s decision to deploy the National Guard to the nation’s capital, a move credited with slashing crime in just one week. And she wasn’t shy about where she wants to see that same strategy next.
“Fine, you don’t want ’em? Send ’em to New York, please,” Ainsley said. “Please, Donald Trump, send ’em here. Clean up these streets. I welcome it.”
Trump’s tough stance delivers results
President Trump’s order to bring in the Guard has already reshaped the streets of Washington. Officials report a drop in crime, along with dozens of arrests that showcased Trump’s ongoing crackdown on illegal immigration.
In one weekend alone, 93 arrests were made, with nearly half involving individuals in the country illegally. Trump celebrated the early success on Truth Social, writing: “Washington, D.C., is SAFE AGAIN, and we have just begun the process of revival.”
It’s a theme that echoes his ongoing message on border security. Earlier this year, he declared the southern border “100% secure” and highlighted major drops in illegal crossings since his policies took effect.
Ainsley welcomes the Trump treatment for New York
For Earhardt, who has long spoken with warmth about her home city, the contrast is personal. She sees the same revitalization possible for New York where Fox News itself is headquartered.
“I just don’t understand why they wouldn’t want to clean up these cities,” she said. “I mean, D.C. needed to be cleaned up. It looks like it has been.”
With Trump making crime reduction a centerpiece of his second term, city leaders across the country are watching closely. Some critics balk at federal intervention, but for Ainsley and her Fox & Friends co-hosts, the results speak for themselves.
A president and a network in sync
The moment highlighted the deep connection between Trump and Fox’s most-watched morning show. Earhardt, known for her faith, family values, and authenticity, has become one of the President’s strongest cheerleaders on television and her plea reflects a broader public sentiment among New Yorkers who feel their city has lost its way.
For Trump, whose leadership style blends decisive action with populist instincts, Earhardt’s call is more than a TV soundbite. It underscores how his message of order and safety continues to resonate beyond Washington.
And for Fox News, the exchange once again showed why Fox & Friends remains a must-watch program in the Trump era: part news, part heartbeat of his most loyal base.
