Plummeting Murder Rate Shows ‘Law And Order Works’

Anewly released report shows the U.S. murder rate is on track to drop to its lowest level in the 125 years such records have been kept.

125 years. 

And nine of 13 offenses tracked in the Council on Criminal Justice’s (CCJ) Year-End 2025 Update declined by double digits from 2024. 

Might those lower numbers have something to do with the work of federal immigration law enforcement, so reviled by the left, taking thousands of criminal illegal aliens off the streets? Is Don Lemon a narcissist? 

The answer to both questions, of course, is yes. 

Corporate media outlets like Axios downplayed the significant declines, asserting “violent crime was already falling to a two-decade low in Biden’s final year, calling into question whether Trump’s policies have made an impact.” Axios leaned on a statement from CCJ’s CEO Adam Gelb, who said, “It’s extremely difficult to disentangle and pinpoint what’s actually driving the drop.”
