"Despite GOP Claims, Data Shows Crime Rates Dropping Ahead of 2024"
The Republican National Convention's "Make America Safe Again" night featured claims about rising crime and immigration issues, many of which were fact-checked and found misleading. Despite a record high in unauthorized border crossings under Biden, recent data shows a decline and that migrants are less likely to commit crimes than U.S.-born citizens. Today also marks the 10th anniversary of Eric Garner's death, a significant event in the fight against police violence. Additionally, U.S. officials revealed an Iranian plot to kill Trump, and Democratic lawmakers are pushing back against a virtual roll call vote for Biden's nomination.
