President Trump Comments on the Collapse in U.S. Law Enforcement ~ VIDEO
In a press conference this past Tuesday, President Trump read from two of the Crime Prevention Center Research Center’s latest research reports. One report shows how violent crime fell by 17 percent during the Trump administration and then soared by 43 percent under Biden. A second report shows how law enforcement in the U.S. has collapsed. We show how the drop in arrest rates over the last few years from 2020 to 2022 is without precedent, and that is particularly true for the largest cities.
The arrest rates for violent and property crimes have never been anywhere near as low as they are now.
By the way, I got to talk to President Trump for a few minutes when he traveled to Bozeman, Montana, on August 9th. 2024. He told me he appreciated my research on crime, gun control, and vote fraud. After the assassination attempt, I was a little concerned about what impact that might have on Trump’s views on gun control, but my brief meeting with me gave me confidence that his views hadn’t changed.
In these recent speeches, Trump stated:
“And we had a couple of instances last night where things were mentioned. So I got it. Did crime rise under Trump and fall under Biden? They say it rose under Trump and and they go, "No, the opposite is true. Take a look at this here. It said, Is it true? Did crime rise under Trump and fall under Biden? No. Comma, the opposite is true. This was a study group that went out and didn't care, they did the numbers and there was another one that was a historical comparison of the collapse of law enforcement in US cities, the drop in arrest rates over the last few years is without precedent. Lowest arrest rates we’ve ever seen. They don’t arrest people anymore.” Transcript provided by ABC News, August 20, 2024.
In President Trump’s presentation on Tuesday, August 20th, 2024, in Michigan, he read from two recent Crime Prevention Center Research posts. Trump referenced our research on how violent crime fell under Trump, rose under Biden, and law enforcement collapsed over the last few years.
Did crime rise under Trump and Fall under Biden? No, the Opposite is True.
A Historical Comparison of the Collapse of Law Enforcement in US Cities. The Drop in Arrest Rates over the Last Few Years is without Precedent.
Here is yet another example of Democrats falsely claiming that crime has dropped under Biden. If they claimed REPORTED crime fell, they would at least have a credible claim.
Violent crime has dropped to its lowest level in more than 50 years.
And crime will keep coming down when we put a prosecutor in the Oval Office—instead of a convicted felon.
— Joe Biden (@JoeBiden) August 20, 2024
Trump continues:
Trump: “her administration’s crime statistics show she’s presided over a 43% increase in violent crime. These are all government numbers, 43% increase in violent crime. I bet the people behind me don’t have anything like that. It just gets better. It doesn’t get worse, including a 58% increase in rape, 89% increase in aggravated assault, and a 56% increase in robbery. The crime in America, the fact is, is out of control.”
The numbers cited by Trump here were also from the NCVS that our report discussed.
Here are statements by Kamala Harris from 2020 where she strongly recommended taking funding from the police.

Hazardous chemicals are leaking into the Baltimore harbor following a cargo shipwreck which destroyed the Francis Scott Key bridge.
Early Tuesday morning, a container ship rammed into the major bridge causing it to snap and plunge into the river.
On Wednesday, Jennifer Homendy, the chair for the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), stated that her team discovered and identified 56 containers on the cargo ship that contain “764 tons of hazardous materials.”
Some of the materials that threaten the water surrounding the bridge include corrosives, lithium ion batteries and flammables.
A sheen of hazardous material has been seen in the waterway. It is unclear which containers on the Singaporean ship were breached. The exact number will be revealed in two-to-four weeks.

Baltimore Bridge Collapse Analysis: 100% AVOIDABLE
On March 26, 2024, the Francis Scott Key Bridge in the Baltimore Harbor was struck by a massive container ship Dali. Jeff OStroff walks you through all phases of this fateful collision and the resulting total collapse of the Key Bridge, offering you step by step walkthrough of security camera videos that captured this engineering disaster. You'll also see possible bridge design deficiencies, as well as past deficiencies on the Dali ship, and what could have prevented this catastrophe.
Redacted: We NOW know they’re LYING about the Baltimore bridge collapse, Biden’s great replacement
The NTSB just released their initial findings of the Baltimore bridge collapse and it's a stunning contradiction of the Biden administration. Why did President Biden come out first thing in the morning to tell us their investigation showed no signs of foul play? The NTSB didn't arrive on board until two days later. Journalist Lara Logan said her intelligence sources confirmed that this was an intentional cyber attack.

Biden reportedly attempting to collapse Netanyahu government mid-war
SEE: https://www.jihadwatch.org/2024/03/biden-reportedly-attempting-to-collapse-netanyahu-government-mid-war; republished below in full, unedited, for informational, educational, & research purposes:
Recall that the U.S. State Department funded a Leftist group that was behind chaotic protests in Israel against Netanyahu’s judicial reform last March. This and more makes it clear that Biden is no friend to Netanyahu. Biden also views Netanyahu as the “primary obstacle” to Israel changing “its military tactics in the Gaza Strip.” On a personal level, according to NBC News, Biden is hostile to Netanyahu:
“He just feels like this is enough,” one of the people said of the views expressed by Biden. “It has to stop.”…..
His descriptions of his dealings with Netanyahu are peppered with contemptuous references to Netanyahu as “this guy,” these people said. And in at least three recent instances, Biden has called Netanyahu an “a**hole,” according to three of the people directly familiar with his comments.
A core reason why Biden is now reportedly “attempting to force the ‘collapse’ of the Israeli government of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu” in the middle of a war against Hamas terrorists in Gaza:
Netanyahu has been a frequent obstacle to Democrats’ policies in the Middle East, starting with his opposition to President Barack Obama’s nuclear deal with Iran, and continuing into his opposition to Biden’s Palestinian state ideas.
Another reason is the dilemma Biden faces in light of the upcoming elections, given his dependence on the Muslim vote and the pressure he has been receiving from Muslim communities. By shifting attention to Israel and the Netanyahu government, Biden diverts scrutiny away from himself and creates an excuse for evading his responsibility to ally with Israel against jihad terror. He also gets to shift blame away from his administration for pouring money into the coffers of Iran. Under Obama, Iran — a main funder of Hamas — saw $33.3 billion dollars in backroom deals flow into its coffers. Under Biden, billions more flowed into Iran.
Creating a crisis to avert attention and responsibility has become a signature ploy of Democrats.
“Report: Biden Trying to Collapse Netanyahu Government, Mid-war,” by Joel B. Pollak, Breitbart, March 11, 2024:
U.S. President Joe Biden is reportedly attempting to force the “collapse” of the Israeli government of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the middle of a war against Hamas terrorists in Gaza and a potential war against Hezbollah in Lebanon.
Biden has been increasingly hostile to Netanyahu in his public remarks, recently saying that Netanyahu is “hurting” Israel more than he is helping it through his conduct of the war. (Netanyahu fired back, saying that Biden was “wrong.”)
Now, New York Magazine reports that the Biden administration is actively looking for ways to force Netanyahu’s right-wing coalition, which has been remarkably unified, to fall apart, which would bring about early elections. Report (original emphasis):
One Israeli expert frequently consulted by American officials says, “I have been asked by a serious administration figure what it is that will force the Netanyahu coalition to collapse." They were interested in the mechanics, what can we demand which will collapse his coalition.”
In the event the new American position over Netanyahu remained unclear, Vice-President Kamala Harris left no doubts in a Friday interview with CBS News, which asked “Are the Israelis at risk of losing U.S. aid if this continues?” Harris replied: “I think it’s important for us to distinguish or at least not conflate the Israeli government with the Israeli people.”….
