When the new director of the U.S. Marshals Service, Gadyaces S. Serralta, went on Fox’s Saturday in America and lauded the administration’s work in Washington and Memphis, he wasn’t offering partisan cheerleading — he was speaking for every citizen who wants to walk their streets without fear. Serralta, who was sworn in as director on August 1, 2025, has decades of street‑level law enforcement experience and knows firsthand what real, sustained pressure on criminals looks like.
President Trump’s Memphis Safe Task Force, modeled openly on the federal intervention in the District of Columbia, is exactly the kind of decisive action Republicans have been demanding for years: bring federal resources, coordination, and teeth to cities where local officials have too often cowered. The White House laid out the plan in plain terms — a multiagency effort backed by National Guard support that uses the D.C. playbook to force a turnaround in public safety.
And the results are not theoretical. Independent reporting shows significant drops in violent crime in Memphis after federal and Guard deployments, with hundreds of arrests and weapons taken off the streets — proof that law and order, not lectures from the left, is what saves lives. Those statistics vindicate the hard work of federal officers, sheriffs, and state partners who have refused to let crime victimize whole neighborhoods any longer.
Serralta’s blunt appraisal — calling the mission “God’s work” in a Fox clip that’s resonating across the country — captures a simple truth conservatives have known all along: protecting innocent people from violent criminals is moral, necessary, and nonnegotiable. We should applaud men and women in uniform who willingly put themselves between danger and our families, and we should stop apologizing for enforcing the laws that keep civilization intact.
Make no mistake, the federal surge also exposes where decades of soft policies and political cowardice have failed American cities. Blue‑city mayors and woke prosecutors who obsess over ideology instead of victims created the permissive environments that allowed gangs and cartels to flourish; it is past time they be held accountable while the federal government backs up the thin blue line with real resources.
Patriots who love this country should back Director Serralta and the men and women he leads, demand more federal support where local leadership refuses to act, and vote for leaders who will put public safety ahead of political theater. If Washington and Memphis can be reclaimed, so can any city that chooses to stand with law enforcement — and conservatives should make that the central promise of our movement: safety, justice, and the simple right to live without fear.
