FACT CHECK: New Data Proves Crime Is WAY UP Under Kamala

September 23, 2024

Violent crime is up, not down, under Kamala Harris — but as usual, the Fake News isn't telling the whole story

 

Violent crime hasn't "dropped," as the Fake News insists.

 

When Kamala took office, the FBI changed how it collects crime data. As a result, they're missing data from nearly a third of the nation's law enforcement agencies — including from many of the most violent cities, such as Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Oakland, and New Orleans.

 

A much more accurate picture emerges using data from the DOJ's National Crime Victimization Survey, which shows crime rates remain WAY UP under Kamala — throwing a dagger straight through the heart of claims to the contrary by Democrats and their Fake News allies.

  • FACT: Violent crime is up 37% between 2020 and last year.
    • Rape is up 42%.
    • Robbery is up 63%.
    • Assault is up 34%.
    • Violent crime (excluding simple assault) is up 55%.
    • Domestic violence is up 32%.
    • Stranger violence is up 61%.
    • Violent crime (with an injury) is up 10%.
    • Violent crime (with a weapon) is up 56%.
    • Motor vehicle theft is up 42%.

  • FACT: The total number of violent crimes reported last year is higher than any year under President Trump.

  • FACT: Kamala has overseen the two highest years for total Americans victimized by violent crime since 2012.

  • FACT: Kamala has presided over three of the four most murderous years in the last quarter century.

  • FACT: In most cities, murder rates remain higher than pre-pandemic levels.

President Donald J. Trump will END the lawlessness once again.
