Murders plummeted more than 20% in 2025 from the year before, the single-largest one-year drop on record — and it might be the lowest murder rate in the U.S. since 1900, a study released Thursday by the Council on Criminal Justice found.

This likely has more to do with the fact that less people go anywhere now since the plandemic. People who stay in more, murder less .. as humorous as that sounds.

Immigration is at a negative, first time in fifty years.

crime is business.. they keep increasing the funding they steal, for a problem they create and foster..

surely ppl are scratching their heads and wondering why if its so easy to clean up. why no one before him did it?..

The crime rate in the US has been dropping since Bill Clinton took office.

So when you take the worst criminals away.... crime drops? 🤨 Gosh, who would have known? 🤦🏻‍♂

MSM will NEVER show these numbers!

... except by law enforcement.
