evidence: This week, the FBI released further evidence of the noteworthy drop in crime during Biden's tenure. "Violent crime in the U.S. dropped in 2023, according to FBI statistics that show a continued trend downward after a coronavirus pandemic-era crime spike," the Associated Press reported. "Overall violent crime declined an estimated 3% in 2023 from the year before, according to the FBI report Monday. Murders and nonnegligent manslaughter dropped nearly 12%." The drop was particularly significant in municipal areas of 1 million or more people. We are approaching pre-pandemic levels, after a surge during the Trump presidency. In a statement following the release of the FBI data, Biden announced: "In 2023, according to the data, our nation saw the largest ever one-year decrease in the homicide rate, which is now 16% below its level in 2020. Violent crime also declined again and is at a near 50-year low." Biden's assertion that we are near a 50-year low turns out to be true.
