Annual figures released Tuesday reflect a 4.5% year-on-year decrease in all violent crime nationally in 2024
When Donald Trump fought for and won the 2024 presidential election, his victory was built partly on the false assertion that Democrats were responsible for an out-of-control crime wave in the US, with murders and rapes at record highs.
Figures released by the FBI on Tuesday, however, confirm that the nation was as safe as it ever had been during the final full year of the Biden administration. Every category of crime decreased in frequency, and violent crime in particular dropped to levels not seen since the 1960s, per the report.
The bureau’s annual Reported Crimes in the Nation Statistics report reflects a 4.5% year-on-year decrease in all violent crime nationally in 2024, with murder and non-negligent manslaughter falling 14.5% from the 2023 figure.
Literally the only stuff he says that isn’t a lie is inadvertent admissions of personal guilt
Time to fire whoever made that report and claim it was Obama manipulating the data
The only out-of-control crime wave is right now, with ICE.
Whoever made this report is about to be sacked.
We apologize again for the fault in the data. Those responsible for sacking the people who have just been sacked, have been sacked.
Or thrown out a window, Putin style
Bondi is about to get canned for letting the report reach the public.
I dunno, he didn’t fire her after talking about the Epstein files being on her desk before the administration started claiming they simply don’t exist. I was kind of surprised about that.
Wonder if it has anything to do with how she looks…
I always hear people claim that this is due to declining reporting rates and the real crime rate is higher.
I personally doubt this but is there any analysis that investigates this question more deeply?
How do you determine a lack of reporting? It is a disingenuous claim meant to justify a preconceived bias.
Yeah, is that the new talking point? This is the first time I’ve seen it and it also had me scratching my head…
