    Trumpists aren't crying about the amount of crime as much as they are the lack of prosecution of crime.

    In D.C. 67% of crimes were not prosecuted in 2022, up from 31% in 2016.

    U.S. Attorney Matthew Graves blames it on "new and changing D.C. probable cause laws."

    A single store in a national chain of thousands closing is probably not abnormal. But when your company tells you it’s not safe to leave the building in broad daylight, that’s disturbing.

    That’s stunning. It would be better served as a stat if accompanied by more context, but if only one of every three crimes is pursued, aren’t they asking you to break the law?

    I suffer from reading comprehension. Thirty years ago, I couldn't have done a Google search.

    Violent crime overall is down dramatically from its peak rates during the Reagan (and Daddy Bush) years.

    Not if you watch cable news for hours on end, then you’re lucky to not get murdered walking to your mailbox.
