Trump Guilty

That's funny because I won't watch any of their videos due to their right wing bias.
My take away, you confirmed all the points are true.
Did you look at the graph you posted?

You can ask a question or present a point of view through any lens you like. For years I've watched Canadians put positive spins on every silly deed our Canadian PM has done for us. At some point the electorate feels the pressures of rising crime, housing issues (availability, costs, finance rates), pocketbook issues (cost of shelter, food, fuel and money), health care.... the spin stops working at some point, and people become focused on change.
Like Canada, the US electorate is feeling the pressure of those things. Biden is losing confidence within his own party and as the polls say -- with the electorate. Not unlike the situation in Canada -- there's only so long a leftist agenda will go before voters feel the pocketbook strain.
I think the Left has crossed the line in both countries, the pendulum is swinging right.
All crime is gun related?Do you just invent this stuff?

I did -- it highlights gun-related homicide in the US -- the ultimate violent crime. While it's not the whole measure, it's the most violent crime on the books.
And you used it to dispute violent crime going up during Trump's term? Your own graph shows gun related deaths going up 30%+/- during his term then dropping about 10% once Biden came into power. Weird flex, but ok.
Ok, so I wasn’t the only one who was confused.
If you want to talk about violent crime, then you talk about all violent crime. You also talk about it in per capita numbers, not straight numbers. The variations these days are little more than blips.

You can't talk about ALL violent crime for a number of reasons. One is that your data only goes until 2022. Two is that the data under Biden is now incomplete, because submission to the FBI is voluntary and some places don't submit anymore. Depending on which places, that could be a lot of violent crime that's unreported. Three is that it only counts reported data; if a victim doesn't report the crime, for various reasons, then it isn't counted.If you want to talk about violent crime, then you talk about all violent crime. You also talk about it in per capita numbers, not straight numbers. The variations these days are little more than blips.

It's really difficult to compare now to before when you don't have the data for now. Best to stick with other statistics that are verifiable.
Well that's the thing about proper, accurate data; it takes time to compile. And of course you can only remark upon what's actually reported. Funny thing, that. Unreported data isn't data.
About time. You can only hold so many press conferences/hearings accepting full responsibility for the worst secret service failure in decades but then declining to have personal consequences before it is laughable.
And not really having any answers about basic facts of the investigation, more than a week later. Where did she think she was going?
