Who was president until the beginning of 2025, Kash? Take all the time you need.

Screenshot of a tweet from FBI Director Kash Patel reading “Leadership matters,” above a line graph titled “U.S. homicide rate since 1900.” The chart shows fluctuations in homicide rates per 100,000 people over time, with peaks in the early 20th century and around the 1970s–1990s, followed by a decline to a projected 125-year low around 2025. Source listed as the Council on Criminal Justice.

The source of the graph.

Two points. First, steady decline from the last two years of Biden. And Trump was President for the highest number since 1997, and the biggest spike since the chart recorded data.

Yes, it was the year of Covid, but his mishandling of that likely exacerbated the issue.

Council on Criminal Justice

What’s Driving the Drop in Homicide? How Low Might It Go?

CCJ brought together leading experts to assess what’s driving the homicide decline, including changes in criminal justice policy, shifts in technology use, and broader social and economic trends.

@georgetakei
Does he not have his own data to graph? The FBI director is using someone else's figure to prove a point, just not the way he thinks.
