"I got a great call from some incredible people, some friends of mine, very successful people,"
"So we are holding off that surge, everybody. And we're going to let them see if they can do it,"

President Trump postponed a planned federal surge into San Francisco after phone calls from prominent tech CEOs and conversations with Mayor Daniel Lurie. Trump said the callers told him San Francisco was working hard to reduce crime, so he would hold off the surge while reserving the right to act if the effort "doesn't work out." The scope of the pause—whether limited to National Guard troops or including immigration enforcement—remained unclear. Customs and Border Protection agents arrived at a nearby Coast Guard base, drawing protesters. Mayor Lurie emphasized local crime declines, citing a 26% overall drop and a 22-year low in car break-ins.
