FBI update proves Donald Trump was RIGHT about rising violent crime

When the FBI released its “final” crime numbers for 2022 last September, progressives around the country cheered because they showed a drop in overall national violent crime.Just one problem: The 2022 numbers were 100% fake, which means we have no reason to believe the 2023 numbers the bureau’s put out.The only reason we know this is that an eagle-eyed observer spotted an oblique reference to an “update” on the bureau’s website — which belatedly turned that 2022 crime drop into a crime increase.Despicable. For months liberals and leftists crowed about the stats; partisan anchors used them to “fact check” Donald Trump’s claim crime was up during his debate with Kamala Harris. They assured us the 2022 and 2023 figures proved there was no need to worry about the pro-crime policies implemented by woke DAs and legislatures around the nation.The crime-lovers owe Trump and everyone else they lied to and endangered an apology. Now, thanks to that on-the-sly “update,” it’s clear crime has been rising, not falling, just as Trump and other people still in touch with reality observed. Per the Federal Bureau of Incompetence’s initial data, the 2022 data allegedly showed a violent-crime rate drop of 2.1% year on year.With the revision, they show violent crime going up nationally by 4.5%.Meaning that thousands more rapes, murders and other serious crimes took place than the Justice Department initially claimed. The total swing, 6.6 percentage points, was greater than the endlessly vaunted 3.5% drop reported by the FBI for 2023.  Morning Report and Evening Update: Your source for today's top stories Please provide a valid email address.
