Trump has been campaigning on the lie that crime is up all over the country.
Trump, of course, is a liar. And he's wrong.
Again.
Like a certain Trumper who frequents this blog and posts incorrect, conspiratorial lies.

Crime is local and always has been. If there is a robbery or assault next door than crime is up. It is kind of like food and home prices. If own a house then home prices and interest rates don't affect you if trying to buy they do.
Most of these reports are reported crimes and In its annual survey, BJS asks crime victims whether they reported their crime to police. It found that in 2022, only 41.5% of violent crimes and 31.8% of household property crimes were reported to authorities.
If you live at the beach in Delaware crime is probabley low but if you live in Roxbury you probably have a different take on it.
Somehow I knew you wouldn’t be happy with this news from the FBI, since it doesn’t match the narratives that you buy into.
But facts are stubborn things, even if you don’t believe them.
