Care to guess which direction it went?

Anyone? Anyone?

Up, of course. Way up.

When the FBI originally released the “final” crime data for 2022 in September 2023, it reported that the nation’s violent crime rate fell by 2.1%. This quickly became, and remains, a Democratic Party talking point to counter Donald Trump’s claims of soaring crime.

But the FBI has quietly revised those numbers, releasing new data that shows violent crime increased in 2022 by 4.5%. The new data includes thousands more murders, rapes, robberies, and aggravated assaults.

That's some rounding error, missing it by over 6%. Way to go, Deep State.

Most folks, I think, weren't fooled in the slightest. Certainly not us folks in blue cities who have seen drastic increases in both violent and property crime the past several years.
