Donald Trump’s lies about a Democrat-caused crime wave dramatically implode as data reveals that the murder rate plummeted for a third year in a row in 2024 — proving that blue governance works.
And it gets even better...
According to ABC News, homicide levels jumped 30% in 2021 but then proceeded to fall by 6% in 2022 and then 13% in 2023, marking the largest drop on record.
Astonishingly, recorded murders dropped by a staggering 16% overall in 2024. That amounts to 5,000 fewer deaths compared to the previous three years. Not only that, but it brings the murder rate down to pre-pandemic numbers.
Blue cities have seen particularly propitious drops. Murders decreased by 40% in Philadelphia, 29% in Washington, D.C., and 24% in Baltimore.
Cities with populations below 250,000 people saw a 19% drop on average.
In analyzing the data, experts have credited the 2022 Bipartisan Safer Communities Act that President Biden signed into law. That legislation pumped $750 million into helping states reduce violence.
The number don’t lie!
