Kamala Harris’s FBI Is Gaslighting You About the Crime Wave
Numbers don’t lie. The FBI would lead you to believe crime is down, but serious crimes are surging at dangerous rates—including human trafficking soaring by 333 percent.
The Kamala Harris FBI may claim crime is down nationwide, but they’re obscuring the true numbers that show what Americans already know: We’re experiencing an unprecedented crime wave statewide ignited by “progressive” policies.
In Georgia, for instance, the FBI reports crime fell 3 percent between 2019 and 2022. How’d they get this amazing statistic? By conflating minor infractions with serious and violent criminal convictions.
Murder, rape, and assault are up by more than 38 percent when the statistics are adjusted to separate non-violent crimes such as robbery, burglary, and theft.
In that 3-year span, murder increased by 66 percent, rape increased by 61 percent, and aggravated assault increased by 55 percent—confirming what everyone sees in his local community.
The FBI data also shows a heartbreaking increase in human trafficking, which rose by an incredible 287 percent for commercial sex acts and 333 percent for involuntary servitude.
A commercial sex act is any sex act that is exchanged for anything of value including food, shelter, protection, gifts, or clothing. Involuntary servitude is when an individual is obtained by force and coerced into peonage, debt bondage, or slavery.
Crime is undeniably on the rise, yet the Left and its compliant media are gaslighting Americans into not believing their lying eyes. Worse, radicals are making things still worse by releasing criminals, opening our borders to illegal alien criminals, and undermining law-abiding citizens' ability to defend themselves through their Second Amendment rights.

Atlanta is Declining Under Democrats
“Progressive” policies continually lead to regressive outcomes in blue cities across America. But instead of finding solutions that leave law-abiding citizens with a restored faith in safety, they implement soft-on-crime policies that assist criminals.
In Atlanta—considered the Chicago of the south and one of the top 10 most dangerous cities in America—gang violence continues to terrorize law-abiding citizens. Instead of addressing crime, leftist advocates and lawmakers are essentially handing victories to criminals by working to defund the police and bail out criminals through “criminal justice” reform nonprofits—many funded by leftist dark money groups.
These groups bail out individuals charged with crimes under the guise that their effort promotes “criminal justice”, but it is proven that they do not work. The John Jay College of Criminal Justice’s Data Collaborative for Justice reports that 66 percent of individuals released under bail reform, who had a recent prior arrest, were re-arrested within two years of their release.
In 2023, Georgia Republicans passed the Street Gang Terrorism and Prevention Act (S.B. 44) to stiffen prison sentences for street gang offenses. To no surprise, 20 Democrat lawmakers voted against the legislation that was signed by Gov. Brian Kemp (R).
The Democrats claimed the bill would undermine “criminal justice” efforts that focus on rehabilitation instead of tough penalties—effectively showcasing that their desired policies coddle criminals.
After all, 75–90 percent of all the crime in Atlanta is gang-related, according to Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis. So why not vote for a bill that cracks down on gang violence?
The simple answer is that the Left is promoting lawlessness in our country and many individuals like “progressive” mega donor George Soros are dumping millions of dollars to elect District Attorneys and lawmakers that refuse to prosecute crime.
Cash Bail Meets Defund the Police
Georgians deserve to feel safe in their state, but the Left is more concerned with assisting criminals under the guise of “criminal justice” reform. When will they learn that harsh consequences deter criminal actions?
Based on the work they are doing to destroy Georgia, probably never.
Georgia “progressives” are digging the crime hole deeper every day by calling for the police to be defunded and promoting cash bail schemes.
One group, the Atlanta Solidarity Fund, which raised bail money to release criminals, organized protests in Atlanta popularized the term “cop city.” Months later, 3 members of the organization were arrested for charity fraud and money laundering.
Three months later, an additional 61 individuals were arrested for the “cop city” protest that sought to demonize police officers in Atlanta.
“The 61 defendants together have conspired to prevent the construction of the Atlanta Public Safety Training Center by conducting, coordinating and organizing acts of violence, intimidation and property destruction,” said Attorney General Chris Carr (R) who referred to the individuals as “militant anarchists.”
Republicans began fighting against the “progressive” bail groups in 2023 with H.B. 130 which blocks bail groups from paying for numerous offenders and limits what crimes qualified for bail. Democrats in mass voted against the bill and a judge appointed by President Joe Biden blocked the bill—once again showing that the left is pro-crime.
"Georgians have witnessed the disastrous impact lawlessness is having on communities across the country,” said Kemp. "Thanks to the work of our legislative partners in the General Assembly, we are able to once again send the message that such lawlessness will find no safe haven in Georgia.”
Not only are radical leftists pushing for cash bail and protesting police officers, but they also attempted to pull funding from police that are already struggling to keep up. Thankfully, the Atlanta city council voted against a measure that would have held $73 million from the police budget.
Two-time failed Georgia gubernatorial candidate and election-denier Stacy Abrams (D), who constantly claims the Georgia election was stolen from her by Gov. Kemp due to “racist” election policies, even supported and expanded the anti-police efforts of Seattle-based grantmaking group the Marguerite Casey Foundation.
Over 100 Georgia sheriffs condemned her actions.
In 2021, Georgia Republicans took steps to protect police officers from the growing social pressure and the endless calls to reduce funding. The bill, Signed by Gov. Kemp, blocked local budgets from reallocating police funding to other state-funded initiatives.
Republicans are fighting tooth and nail to block leftists from tearing apart Georgia.

Self Defense Is Necessary
One would think with crime rates bellowing over the top of sanity that lawmakers on the Left would advise law-abiding citizens to exercise their Second Amendment rights, but of course they only seek laws that take that right away.
And yes, criminals don’t follow the law so only innocent civilians are left unarmed.
If the left had their way, Georgia residents would not have the ability to fend off violent criminals. Many Democrats in Georgia are eyeing red flag laws, AR-15 bans, and universal background checks. Thankfully the state legislature is controlled by Republicans who can fend off these attacks.
In 2020, Republicans introduced an “anti-red flag” bill that would ensure Georgians are never subject to infringement.
"It is the responsibility of the General Assembly to protect the people of Georgia when unconstitutional legislation is passed and signed into law, or executive orders are issued by the United States Federal Government that infringes upon or interferes with people's preexisting rights and liberties guaranteed by the United States Constitution," reads the text of the bill.
But that could all quickly change.
If Georgia residents intend to combat crime and keep their constitutional rights, leftist lawmakers need to be stopped in their tracks.
