New preliminary data from major U.S. cities shows a sharp drop in violent crime in the first half of the year — more than 25% in some communities.

The number of homicides in the 69 reported cities fell by more than 17% during the first half of 2024 compared to the last period last year.

Helping Trump is disloyal to America.

Yes, they have a plan to stop certification. What is our plan to stop their plan.🤔
