“New tool to clear homeless camps” is a benign phrase for ending a wacky overreaching decision by the 9th Circuit that said it was “cruel and unusual” punishment to enforce laws against camping in streets and parks. https://t.co/hAUpqQ2ZBS

This seems a big point: Americans used to move. Unemployed Rustbelters were supposed to move to booming Western cities … where they could now compete against low-wage illegal migrants. They declined. https://t.co/DpvhyWMzGB

So *this* wasn’t just foreign-born workers lying to the BLS and saying they were natives. This is a sharp drop in hard, real dollars that were sent by people who aren’t in a position to send them any more (in part because they no longer are in the labor force, presumably). https://t.co/TVeWXZ0iKQ

And even the @NYTimes says the 2023 DC homicide rate was “the highest rate in over 20 years.” https://t.co/I5YnOqYAYg Even if you use 2024 for your comparsion, homicides (and carjackings) seem to be significantly higher than pre-2020. https://t.co/0A6lOkis9L https://t.co/if8ZCLVPCa

Looks like you can beat somebody up and have it still be a misdemeanor in DC, as long as it doesn’t require hospitalization or medical treatment beyond what a layperson can administer. https://t.co/SHa9hXMo7g

Note that Yahoo’s graph of the *rate* of violent crime in DC (in an article disputing Trump) does not show it as “at a thirty year low.” It’s at a one-year low, coming down from a big 2023 spike but still way about 2022. https://t.co/B3EO9XvQQa https://t.co/KBEZkgQLmM

Given the persistent charges that DC downgrades crimes to pretty up its stats–eg lowering aggravated assaults to mere assaults–it seems especially important to include mere assaults.

This seems to be the chart relied on for “violent crime in DC is at a 30 year low.” https://t.co/k7FD0LxZBs (h/t @JamesFallows). But I’m still confused! It seems to count 4 crimes-homicide, “sex abuse,” assault w/ a dangerous weapon & robbery. What about plain old assault? Isn’t

NYT: “There were 274 homicides in Washington in 2023 … That was the highest rate in over 20 years.” But not “ever”! So “nonexistent crime crisis” then. Carry on. … PS Trump hedged his bet with “probably.” You think that cuts any ice with the fact-checkers of the NYT? Ha! https://t.co/WYwE65EKz0
