The stats don’t match the reality.
If you’re a major blue city plagued by runaway violent crime and social decay, is it best to just declare victory and avert your eyes to the chronic problems you haven’t been able to resolve for decades?
An epidemic of random violence has so plagued Washington, DC, that an exasperated President Donald Trump has federalized the DC police and has deployed the National Guard to be part of the crime-fighting force. Trump drew international attention to an early August attempted carjacking in which a former Department of Government Efficiency staffer was left bloodied in the streets. The assault happened in an increasingly upscale Logan Circle neighborhood that is host to a thriving restaurant and bar scene.
Two 15-year-old youths have been charged. They are said to have been part of a pack of teens that allegedly attacked the victim.
And yet in the final days of Joe Biden’s administration, the Department of Justice, in conjunction with DC police officials, issued a glowing press release titled “Violent Crime in DC Hits 30 Year Low.”
“Total violent crime for 2024 in the District of Columbia is down 35% from 2023 and is the lowest it has been in over 30 years, according to data collected by the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) and announced by United States Attorney Matthew M.

Those in charge of blue cities are not going to stop lying in their attempts to keep themselves and their cronies from appearing as bad as they deserve.
They need to streamline the Carry Conceal process in DC. Took my son 6 months in Virginia and he said it takes forever in DC.
The people who live in the cities know crime is not down.
Grifter corruptitions running these places is what’s going on.
Call them “Trans Urbans”: Excessively dangerous and violent cities self-identifying as safe zones.
wonder what the benefit is to those in charge? They’re already getting rich with bribes and kickbacks, so...?
A truism of the former Soviet union was that the leaders pretended to pay the workers and the workers pretended to work. When anything comes under Soviet style control, the result is similar.
DC and Baltimore needs to be reminded fudging numbers to make your self look good makes the BOGUS sign non stop blinking.
Dims are so retarded. They honestly don’t give a damn about citizens. They only care about power. Evil. Pathetic. Idiotic.
