Trump Claims Crime In DC Is ‘Out Of Control’ – It’s Actually Down

Donald Trump

In yet another attempt to divert attention from the Jeffrey Epstein files and last week’s disappointing jobs report, Donald Trump says crime in Washington, D.C. is “totally out of control” as he threatened to “take Federal control of the city.”

Someone might want to tell the 34-time convicted felon that crime in D.C. was down 35 percent in 2024 from the previous year, marking a 30-year low.

And data from the Metropolitan Police Department shows violent crime is also down so far in 2025 compared to the previous year. Continue reading “Trump Claims Crime In DC Is ‘Out Of Control’ – It’s Actually Down”

Trump Said President Was Responsible For Crime In 2016 But Not Today

During a White House press briefing today, Donald Trump was flummoxed when CNN reporter Kaitlan Collins asked the Donald why he blamed President Obama in 2016 for violent crime in Chicago, but today Trump doesn’t take responsibility. “In 2016, you said it was President Obama’s fault when shootings in Chicago were up,” said Collins. “So why was it President Obama’s fault then, but it’s not your fault now?” “Chicago is a disaster,” said Trump, diverting from the question. “The mayor is saying, don’t come in, the mayor is telling us not to come in.” After Collins followed-up on the question, Trump again blamed his predecessor, “Because President Obama was invited in, and he did a poor job … he could have solved the problem.”

Naked burglars give new meaning to “where’s the beef?”

Two naked guys and a friend who’s clearly shy (he wore underwear) broke into a hamburger restaurant in Bonita Beach, Florida, and stole hamburgers and bacon.

Why would three naked “knuckleheads” break into a Bonita Beach eatery and only steal food as two security cameras captured their every move? “Dumb, dumber and dumbest,” Sansevieri said with a laugh Wednesday.

Three days after the naked caper heard around Southwest Florida, the bare-naked beef bandits remained on the lam. Authorities don’t know if the men are tourists or residents, but are trying to uncover and bare all tips.

On Wednesday, authorities released photos — at least those that can be printed — to ask the public for help in identifying the men. The bandits robbed the restaurant at 3:06 a.m. Sunday, stealing 60 hamburgers, three pounds of bacon, three red peppers and a paddleboard.
