By now you’re probably used to being told that what you think you can see with your own eyes isn’t true. Instead, you should trust the experts.
Did you notice changes in your child’s behavior after vaccination? No, you didn’t. The experts say vaccines are totally completely 100 percent honest to goodness safe.
Do you think you’re spending a lot more on groceries today than you were when Joe Biden took office in 2020? Well, you think wrong, and you can’t add up the dollars you’ve spent, because the experts say President Biden has inflation under control, and it’s only stupid MAGA right wingers that claim eggs were not always $5 a dozen.
You might even be foolish enough to think you’ve noticed more violent and dangerous behavior, like robbery, shoplifting, or assault out on the streets. Once again, you would be wrong to trust data from your own senses, and even more wrong to believe any stories your friends and family tell about being accosted in what used to be safe neighborhoods.
No, friends, you haven’t seen what you think you’ve seen. The experts say so. The biggest experts of all, the FBI, can confirm that not only are you not seeing what you think you see, but you’re even crazier than you knew. Violent crime is actually down, you dumb MAGA rabble rouser. See? The statistics say so.
Mainstream media like NBC are nothing but helpmeets to the federal government now, parroting every fib and misdirection. This articles just repeats the FBI’s implausible claim that murder declined at the steepest rate in 20 years between 2022 and 2023. And you can trust NBC, because they put it in a headline:
Except crime is not down, as anyone with eyes can see. The Biden administration and all the agencies that work under it (allegedly–it might be the other way around) are just lying to us. And according to the Trump campaign, they’re doing it using some of the cheapest tricks in the book.
The rate of violent crimes the campaign is reporting is significantly higher than what the FBI claims. Why would that be? Well, because reporting is voluntary on the part of cities and states, and the latest FBI crime stats have huge, gaping holes—there is no data from crime in New York City or Los Angeles.
Besides, states like California that have gone soft on crime are simply not arresting or prosecuting as many crimes as are occurring. This allows them to point to sheer numbers and say “crime is down.” Gee, government work must be nice if you can get it.
Let’s see what the public on X has to say. Some of them, of course, think the FBI is much more trustworthy than Trump.
Others see it in the reverse.
James might need a social media suspension for trusting his own stupid “anecdote” instead of a real expert who knows James’ life better than James does.
We were just saying. . .
