As President Donald Trump continues to develop his mass deportation policy, another stat is dropping, too. According to the data, the murder rate all across the country is falling at a dizzying rate.

Imagine that.

According to the FBI Director Kash Patel, the U.S. is set to enjoy one of the lowest murder rates in more than a decade.

Per The Federalist:

According to Patel, “Let good cops be cops,” is the answer. “I’m gonna let you, the agents, the police officers, the sheriffs, go out there and do the work you so badly want to do. And I’m gonna give you the resources you need to do it. And I’m gonna take away the politicization and weaponization … and that’s what we’ve done.”

Instead of placing a third of FBI agents in the D.C. area, Patel has moved them out across the country to where the crime is occurring. A recent Biden administration document that Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard declassified shows that law enforcement resources were being spent on “non-criminal” activities of conservative Catholics, people attending school board meetings, and flagging those who used symbols like “2A” and imagery referencing the Second Amendment. The FBI sent a memo to over 1,000 employees nationwide instructing them to target conservative Catholics.

The Trump administration has also been ending DEI and other interventions that the Biden administration was pushing on police departments.

You let law enforcement catch criminals, making it riskier for criminals to commit crime, and you will get less crime.

It's all good news here.

The FBI is finally starting to get back to actual criminal investigations instead of being Barack Obama and Joe Biden's Stasi secret police agency.
